For example, mine: I actually said to myself, "Self, don't post pictures of your cats and just throw controllers at them or something. Then this happened when my camera was in arm's reach:  He's miffed because I won't let him out in the flooding. Also, I swear this time I'm actually going to finish Majora's mask. I'm already as far in it as I've ever gotten (the snow area).

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Yeah, all the games that were previously released on X360 (Banjo 1/2/3, Perfect Dark 1/2, Viva Pinata 1/2, Kameo, Jetpac Refueled) aren't ports, they run in backwards compatibility mode. You can transfer your cloud saves/gamerscore from the X360 versions, too. More importantly, the 360-released ones are probably on decent game engines that won't up and poo poo the bed by being migrated to a new console. The N64 games are the only real question depending on if they still actually have the source code. Wouldn't the Xbox version of Conker be more likely than the N64 one though?

FIRST TIME posted:Can anyone tell me how to identify which Genesis Model 2 is the "good" one? I've followed the online guides and found consoles that should have been VA 2.3 and when I got home it turned out to be VA 1. If you already own them I'd just take the top cover and shielding off and look at the revision number on the board. Then you can also see which sound and video encoder chips your system has, which is the real indicator of if you got a good one or not. There's also the Mega Amp if you want Genesis 1 sound on a Genesis 2 (or you could just pick up a Genesis 1 VA1-6): http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?27348-F-S-Mega-AMP-for-Sega-Genesis

It's definitely the N64 version. I guess you can look forward to playing Live & Reloaded on Rare Replay 2.

Pudding Huxtable posted:Go visit a rescue shelter, even without the intention of adopting. Just being around furballs gets you infected with I do this sometimes. The local SPCA has since closed the sattellite cattery, so I go to the main shelter. It's not as nice (and neither are the cats, ha), but I pop over when I'm in the neighborhood. There's this sanctuary place a county over from where I live that apparently has 100+ cats, and they say people get swarmed when they come to visit. That must be... something.  Codiekitty posted:I had to have a cat put to sleep because his bladder got clogged and he couldn't get surgery because (if I understood correctly) part of his heart was fused to his chest cavity, and I watched another slowly die of a facial tumor which, again, couldn't be operated on because the cat had a heart murmur. It hurts like hell, but don't shut down the idea of owning another cat. There are other fuzzies out there who need love and it sounds like you could use their love too. I'm sorry for your losses. All you said is true. Unfortunately, I'm not in a place I can take care of one again and I don't know when I will be. Codiekitty posted:Oh fine, I'll post a shelfie along with more cats. Woa woa woa, back up. Cat manga? Like actual cats or anthropomorphised stuff? I'm not much of an otaku but I would probably read the hell out of some catte manga. Secretly. In private. Mega Drive shmups, yusssss. I can't play the arcade version of Zero Wing 'cause the background flashes red every time you destroy something and it wigs me out. Codiekitty posted:And now, MORE CATS. Adopt me I want to live in your cat paradise. Ambitious Spider posted:Speaking of cats Quotin' to see it. A fine catte, would boop nose!

The magazine is called Neko Panchi, or Neko Punch, and you can find them on Amazon.jp. I kinda stopped importing them and a lot of other Japanese goods ever since the service I used tacked on too many fees. (If anyone's wondering, I can read hiragana but I'm not fluent in Japanese. I've been slacking my studies too long) And to bring this back to retro games, here's some other stuff I imported through them years ago when they were still reasonably priced.  I imported Last Story when it was still uncertain it was going to be localized, and I just love Blaster Master poo poo, okay? Hence this beauty.

I miss my cat. RIP Nellie. I started to play Chrono Trigger on the DS and it's the first time I have ever experienced this game. I can't believe what I've missed growing up without a SNES. This is the first RPG outside of Stick of Truth that I've actually enjoyed. I hope this game is long because I don't want it to end.

I recall really liking Chrono Cross when it came out. Though, I haven't played it in years. My favorite old school RPG is Wild Arms (remake or vanilla). If I had to break it up by bits I'd pick Phantasy Star(8) and Shadowrun(16). Console only, of course. Otherwise this might be a different post. Also, I'm not considering ARPG's such as Zelda.

I haven't had a cat since I was in eighth grade, but she was a great catte. I do, however, have a two-year-old Maltese named Timothy, who is best parts dogge and catte. Observe: Soft and petteable like a catte, but energetic and excitable as a dog. In other news, tonight I dine on F-Zero MSU1 just because.

Robo is pretty awesome and I was in shock when I first met him because I swear to god I thought "Never Gonna Give You Up" was playing. It blew my mind because I thought I was getting Rick Rolled. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqHGi4C6gTw I finished the Mad Max future and now I just entered The End of Time (that's so cool). I'm circling the room trying to learn magic from Spekkio but it's not working.

Shadow Hog posted:Well, I explicitly recall failing to save the little kid from his debilitating illness, although I did unlock the Light and Solo Wings. I forgot about that first one. The only sidequests I remembered was finding the baby dragon, finding all the parts for that hideous blue dragon, and opening the temple that fuses the baby and blue dragons. EDIT: Crap, I've gone two posts without cattes? What is wrong with me!

Codiekitty posted:Why is it called Cat poo poo One when it's about rabbits fighting camels? The original story takes place in Vietnam and all the Vietnamese are depicted as cats. Each nationality are depicted as different animals like Americans are rabbits. Why it's named Cat poo poo One I don't know, probably a Vietnam War joke/pun that some hardcore grognard would get. Renaming it Apocalypse Meow in America was brilliant.

Although the inherent bilingual pun with making all the Americans rabbits was pretty ingenious. (Rabbit = usagi (ウサギ) = USA G.I.)
