I fuckin suck!🪠

Oh look, another Senran Kagura player outs themself. (it's the Eagle face). Welcome to the fold brother, the gross, gross fold.




I was 600ish players short of that drat Mega Lucario in Shuffle. 10,000 points was just not enough. :negative:

Also how worried should I be that my friends are trying to stop me from playing Monster Hunter, so I can play Fantasy Life with them?

You can go 200 hours and still be early in the post-postgame.

So it'll be a nice intermission from Monster Hunter.

Unlike the states Japan had every color of gba player you could want



There were also a few colors to match LE systems like on the light green Tales of Symphonia system



or the gundam system

I tried it but that game was a horrible game and I've played my share of Bad Games. 64GB micro sd means I rarely make room on the gateway.

To elaborate further, the GB Player hardware isn't region locked, so you can use the differently colored ones on a US system as long as you possess a (rare and increasingly more expensive) US startup disc.

Don't use them on hearts, save your coins for mega mawile and loving mega gengar.

It might differ from model to model but the one I owned definitely had built-in games.

Mine only cost me $20 so I wasn't hugely disappointed but it was far from perfect (the aspect ratio is just wrong enough to be annoying, link cable/IR didn't work, sound didn't play back correctly). If you're seriously gonna play a Game Boy in 2015 you might as well get a legit GBC and have it modded with a frontlight.

Oh poo poo, the latest update seems to have allowed the Japanese to attach pins to folders.

That is exactly what I wanted them to make happen since the badge center became a thing, especially with the little 8-bit console and handheld badges they had available for a while.

Didn't they make a Gameboy Light for a while? Where's the best place to buy a GBC with a frontlight?

Nintendo probably submitted both the regular and XL N3DS to the FCC at the same time, because it likely takes several months to receive certification and I'd hazard they hadn't made a decision as to which they'd be releasing at that point.

A remarkable example of a pathetic species.
Lipstick Apathy
I was doing such a good job of not buying a new 3ds. I was perfectly content with my 3ds xl. My binocular vision is terrible and I could never see the 3D effect on my 3ds worth a gently caress; if I squinted real hard and sorta crossed my eyes and cocked my head I could sort of see a difference, but I just turned it off and considered it a worthless feature for me. Then I made the mistake of looking at a new 3ds at the best buy. I could see the 3D. :negative: :retrogames: Now I have my local gamestop holding one of the Majora 3dses for me to pick up tomorrow.

Gotta clarify that one; From what I can tell It's the standard Black/Blue 2DS, not the fancy translucent ones. Those still pop up at a few Targets though, incidentally. They have PS-Vita's for $150 too, which is pretty decent.

This is probably a terrible topic to bring this up in, but does anyone own a GBA Micro? I've been itching to pick up some classic GBA titles (Metroid Fusion, Zero Mission, Golden Sun titles, WarioWare, etc) and am wondering how people like the handheld.

Generally I see people just hate it and think it's a dumb idea, while others just liked it because it was extremely portable.

The Micro's screen has the same resolution as a regular GBA screen but it's definitely not the same size, it's about 1/3 smaller.

So I guess GameStop is getting a restock of the MM new3DS XL. Each store is supposed to get 4 tomorrow. I called my local store and they're holding one for me. So... if ya want one. Give them a call!
I shrugged and called my GameStop. Turned out I was the 20th caller (just 2 hours after the news leaked) which meant the guy got to tell me that not only are they not receiving their shipment until mid-day, but "because this was a leaked internal memo" they don't have any protocol for how they're going to sell them. He says they don't plan on having a line and won't hold them for anyone either.

I kinda want to head over there in the afternoon just to watch the absolute chaos.
