This is all i have to say for now. I used to have a decent profile summary, but i deleted all of that since i wasn't getting on here all that much since the people i talked to back in 09 - 11 barely goes on here anymore, i pretty much cleaned out my bio and only go here just to update my anime/manga stuff.
Even then i rarely do since i lost interest of anime in 2012 (and still am) and was gaming in full force once again. I don't know when I will come back watching and catching up on the current and upcoming Anime shows since I just stopped keeping track. Now I only watch a select few that interest me, but other than that my 08 - 12 run has ran it's course.
I'll try to be active here again if i have the time and probably make this bio kinda back to where it was again except the stat milestones since i didn't keep a copy and can't bother redoing that again.

Sorry for the late reply. I am finally done with work (for a week), got some time to watch anime and play video games like I want.
How have you been buddy? Enjoying your Wii U?
I really hope so. A lot of fans aren't liking the changes in Sonic Boom, but if those changes end up being for the better, then I am all for it. Sonic, in my opinion, is in pretty desperate need of an overhaul to the 3D games, and this just might be it.
Hey don't let it get you down bro, after all you just started there, and seem to have risen up a lot in your short time, so you can bet good things are coming man. Those are great signs in it of themselves. :)
Ouch! Yeah I feel ya there. Thank goodness for cloud gaming and flash drives. They aren't fool proof (a hacker could hack the system at any time), but at least we have better chances of keeping our progress. Unlike the one battery, one cartridge era. *shutters*
My NNID is tad different: "Retr08bit." Speaking of which, I sent you a friend request when I first got mine, but it expires after 30 days, so it's gone now. :(
Since you're such a huge fan of the Crash games, nostalgia aside, do you feel the gameplay still holds up well today? Lack of analog aside.
I dunno, I have like two Gamecube controllers sitting around my house somewhere, so I may use that as an alternative. Although they show big signs of wear, especially my first one, which is rightfully so I guess. That console did come out in the 128 bit era. (Wonder why we don't count bits anymore? XD)
Okay, just thought I'd ask. :) I know you're not a big fan of his, and have been let down (like many of us), by his newer games. *sigh* If only 3D Sonic games could hold up like Mario's.
Heck, as they say: "no news is good news" right? XD
Awwww a corrupted save file. OUCH! I know the painful sting that can bring. I once 100% EVERYTHING on Sonic 3 & Knuckles. All the chaos emeralds, hyper stones, secret bosses and got all the ends. Then one day after a few years of not playing it, I felt in the mood to do so and what did I find? No data. ._.
What did you like best about Crash 2 to put it above the rest...ish? Since you said you weren't 100% about your all-time game I mean.
Yeah I will try and be careful with that. I pre-ordered Hyrule Warriors on Ebay, and saved around $8.00 or $9.00 from buying it in stores. Not sure if this will come with any DLC or not, but I guess a savings is a savings. And yeah man if you pre-ordered it through Amazon you get the Twilight Princess costume pack:
Oh by the way, are you planning on buying Sonic Boom? Can't remember if I asked you that or not. Think I might have.
Exactly! Games like those deserve to be remade, as the HD would make a huge difference. One of the reasons why I am so delighted that they plan to do an HD remake of the Gamebube Resident Evil One...uhhh...remake. XD Can't wait to see how that looks. Also the new Resident Evil: Revelations 2 looks promising.
Have you heard that the new Smash game for Wii U will be bundled with a Gamecube controller? Go to my Facebook page if you wanna see it. I am really hoping that it's wireless...even though I have a strong feeling it won't be.
Well keep it up man, based on what you're telling me they really seem to appreciate all you do for them. I wish my boss was like that. :'(
Ah good choice good choice! You may find this odd, but I never actually "owned" a Crash game back in the day. Only played it briefly once at a Toys R' Us back when it first came out. I did buy Crash 2 on the PSN store, and loved it! Only wish they would have added analog controls for the PSN port, but oh well... I heard 100%ing that game could be a pain in the you-know-what!
Exactly, I don't want to get me something that is going to crack again in another year or so. My co-worker (oddly enough) had it done at the same place, and said it was just fine for them. So that's a plus.
What's really been bothering me lately is how DLC is becoming exclusive with different companies. For example, I want to buy Hyrule Warriors for Wii U as you know. However Amazon, Gamestop and Best Buy each have different exclusive DLC costume packs. I want all of them of course, but unless Nintendo adds them to the eShop later, this isn't possible. Maybe I can find a seller on Ebay who has the codes for sale later on.
Yeah, looking back at it all, I really hope they stop making HD remakes of last gen consoles, and do it with the gen before that. (ie PS2, XBOX, Dreamcast, Gamecube) These are the ones that would benefit most from it. Would love to play an HD port of Haunting Ground or the Fatal Frame games.
Dude I can't wait for the MK8 DLC. Nintendo really seems to be stepping up their A game with quality DLC...finally!
Cool, hope you get your computer all beefed up bro! :)
Congrats man! I know it might be a bit early to say that. But see? I told you if you stayed dedicated to your job good things would happen for you.
Oh random question: what would you say is your all-time favorite game ever? I have been thinking about this for a while, and mine would go to DKC2 on the SNES.
Me too, someplaces were well over $200. I just hope this doesn't turn out to be a "you get what you pay for" kinda deal. X_x I also worry about having my windshield like this, because the cops could give me a ticket for it if they see it.
DLC is a great thing, but lately it just seems like companies are taking WAY too much advantage of it. Also I wanted to see how you felt about "definitive editions" of games. Or HD remakes for that matter. Do you, like me, feel there is way too much of that going around as well? It's funny because personally I think last gen would have benefited much better (and more) from it than this gen. Having HD remakes of PS2 and XBOX games would have been the way to go, heck maybe even PS1 and N64. Oh sure we have such things like the Sly Collection and DMC HD. However, I find it funny how it seems to be happening more often now, which in my opinion, isn't as much as a noticeable difference. Especially with the PS2. I loved that little console, but playing them on a flat screen these days, is a blurry mess. Graphics aren't (and have never been) a big deal to me don't get me wrong, I am just saying in context with HD remakes is all.
True, but I am sure Nintendo already had plans to make the N3DS even before it was announced. But yeah, business is business.
I got my Wii U for my birthday in July, and sadly there weren't many MK8 bundles in stock here at the time, least not at any my family checked at. Oh and speaking of which, do you use Club Nintendo? I just reached Platinum last week.
Hmmm depending on how much of a beast your current laptop is, it may just be more worth to buy a new one bro, if there isn't a large gap in the prices that is. I am still running off my 2006 putter as you know, but I just use it for basic internet, so it's all I need at the moment. I keep getting an error message telling me that one of my hard drives might fail soon. It's been like over years since it happened, and still they are fine. Wonder if it just scrambled some circuits or something, that's why I am getting that message everytime. Weird...
So far I have been calling around, and found a place that would replace my windshield for only a little over $100. Includes labor and installation. Not too bad considering.
You make a good point there bud. Once a company goes 3rd party, they lose most of the freedom and creativity since they are working for others now. The Dreamcast comes to mind with this. The games they had on there were just oozing creativity and fresh ideas. Now that Sega went 3rd party, the quality of their games has decreased a lot. They still make solid titles, they just lack that certain charm from Sega being console hardware only.
One thing I don't understand is why Nintendo is releasing a Smash themed 3DS of the original, when that one will soon be inferior. Sometimes Nintendo really confuses me. I guess it's because Smash comes out before the N3DS, but still... @_@
Hehehe, look at you buddy. Mr. Money Bags over here with his list of stuff to buy! :3 Speaking of which, how much will it cost to fix your PC? On a releated note, I spilled Root Beer on my laptop back a while ago. It still runs, but hasn't been the same since. XD
Yes which can be a bad thing because I take the free-way to work, and I worry about that happening to my windshield. Ugh...better make sure to wear shades at least. XD So I can look cool then I get impaled by shards of glass.
Yup, I agree with pretty much everything you said there about Nintendo. I think the handheld idea would be the smarter choice, and maybe going 3rd party for the consoles. Kind of confusing, but I feel it would be the best way for them to make a profit.
Really? Hadn't thought about it like that. Since I probably will end up getting a N3DS (unless they do upgrade the 2DS), at least I will have that additional feature to enjoy.
And speaking of which, how goes your computer dilemma?
That's exactly my thoughts. They say that some Xbone's have a very loud fan, and some PS4's are randomly ejecting disks. We are wise to wait! *high five*
Hahahaha, if that were true, then my SUV has tons of personality. Not sure that's a good thing in this case, though the crack I recently got on my windshield does look okay when angled at just the right light. XD Ahem... ._.
Honestly man, had Nintendo not owned the handheld market for all these years, I don't know where they would be now. Or even "if" they would be anymore.
Dude, to date I gotta say that from what I have seen of the three console browsers, that the Wii U one by far has the best. It's pretty smooth and doesn't freeze as often as you would expect. Especially if you stick to the mainstream sites. Vita one is solid, 3DS one it terrible.
