That's good to know. Thanks.

They still need to re-relase all these game if not Super Mario All STars style with all the games brought up to similar standard without messing with anything else (I might not be a graphics whore but that doesn't mean I don't pretty pictures) I'd be quite happy with Super Nintendo all around, but if they refuse to do that I'd settle for at least the first three games (Maybe Zero Mission and Fusion as well) being stuck on a single disc the same way Megaman and Sonic have managed to do over the years.

Over at my brother's with his goddamn leg, watching him play Battlefield 2. I can't watch somebody else so...

^^^^ Damn skippy. Specially with nearly dead, exhausted Legendary Pokemon that are in the process of struggling themselves to death.


You don't have to watch him, you can stay in the room with him, and draw him killing an angry tent that's gonna gobble him up. Just make sure he's not in the way like he is with that mushroom!

I think there's nothing in this world that can piss a person off more. Especially when they're poisoned, asleep, and have 1hp. The ball breaks, the poison takes effect, and they die.

And you're just sitting there cursing silph co for not releasing masterballs. You know they have them! They had a working prototype in 199-fucking-6!

Ya but ash stole it and used it to capture mewtwo. Of course he glitched it it first to get 99 but he's a stingy bastard

 

[Sean Renaud]

I don't need a Master Ball, just something better than an Ultra Ball, you think it's bad when you poison em? I intentionally don't use poison and keep sleep and paralyze around for just that reason as well as some low level pokemon so I can gently beat you to death. I had a fucking Ho-oH run out of fucking PP and struggle itself to death after refusing to get in the ball.

Fuck that shit.

My parents stopped calling them all Nintendos when the PS2s hit. Everything, including my Decade old DS and two year old 3DS is still a gameboy though, and that's from me. I only specify between them when I need the 3DS.

 

[FlyAwayFromHere]

my mum calls anything that is just letters things like:

"have you still got those DCTBVDs or whatever they are called?"

"CD mum. its a CD." *facepalm*

 

[Sean Renaud]

That my mom does and sometimes if I'm not paying attention enough to unfuddle it I'll bring the wrong thing over because she didn't want my Buffy Music CD, she wanted Buffy (Kristy Swanson) on DVD! Why I didn't just drop off my Buffy Binder (Seven seasons of Buffy, 5 Angel, Both Video Games, three soundtracks (I think I'm missing one but I can't seem to find it) and a bunch of random art I've gathered) and let her cess it out on her own I'll never know. Probably because the last time I did that it took me forever to get all my Dragonball Z back in one place.

 

[FlyAwayFromHere]

normally shes just giving it back to me after she finds it lying somewhere unnacceptable.. i dont know.. like on the communal table in the living room? *grinds teeth together*

she doesnt tend to borrow my stuff thankfully. I tried to get her to play tomb raider on the xbox as she loved it on ps and she nearly cried cause they "ruined it"

 

[CandiCame]

Damn... your guys moms.

My mom's a hardcore gamer. As in she had all three Adventure Quests and stood in line for the Ms. Pac-Man launch.

Not that that's better. I know that I'll never, NEVER delete my child's savegame on ANYTHING. You remember how old cartridges only had like 3 savefiles? She'd do special runthroughs, and I'd be like 3 or 4. Do you know how fucking proud I was that I could play at all? But then mommy wants to do a speed run, fuck you Vince, I know I've got 2 saveslots already used but I'm using yours because I'm a giant bitch.

I know that that doesn't sound like a traumatic childhood event, but remember that I had FUCKING CANCER. I couldn't go out and play or anything, these games were literally my entire life. It shattered me when she did shit like that and she just did not give a shit.

 

[FlyAwayFromHere]

that sucks really bad... like really really bad.

i think the worst thing i had to contend with was dial up

playing a 90s korean mmo where you are online hunting with other players, you could have taken 3hours to get to a particular dungeon (on a good day.. when i hit 18 we used to do shots on gateways and one took 11 hours. i was bladdered)

if someone phoned you on dialup you would get disconnected... hours of game wasted...

MUM DONT PICK UP! YOU DONT NEED TO SPEAK TO AUNTIE F ABOUT MY GRADES! IM HALFWAY THROUGH KILLING EVILDENG!

-sob-

i didnt have cancer though... so thats a bonus? glad to see you are alive and kicking o.o

Omg I was trying to explain dial-up to my little brother (who has a broken leg and was bitching about lag) and I couldn't get him to understand that sound. That evil sound that will forever haunt the nightmares of an entire generation. I told him it sounded like a cybernetic donkey being raped by a cactus. Then I showed him this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsNaR6FRuO0

 

[FlyAwayFromHere]

oh god tell me about it. when i hear grown men bitching about lag on games im like a vietnam vet and im only 22

YOU WERNT THERE MAN, YOU WERNT THERE....

half the skill of a gamer is owning THROUGH lag... not having a hissy fit about it!

Wow... my cousin still has his copy of zelda with his save from when he was like 6

 

[FlyAwayFromHere]

i found my old ps1 memory card... it had like 2.5 mb of space when empty.

had my entire grand turismo 1 garage on it... *sob* i loved my purple GTO twin turbo..

 

[Sean Renaud]

You know what I remember back when you used to have to draw little stars on your rental games because you didn't want to start all over and we didn't have memory cards or hard drive. Fuck that.

Got me beat...though I didn't start renting till I got an n64.

OMG I remember when rental games were a thing. These kids today, with their Steam and their torrents...

Oh! That reminds me, I got my 50s dad pipe so I can give these kind of "you spoiled kids with your satellite internet and your bitlords" lectures while looking classy as fuck. How long does it take kids to be old enough to where I can do that?

 

[Sean Renaud]

Old enough to talk back. If they can do that you can tell them about how you remembered when games were in 2D Mario only had two girlfriends (as opposed to the four he's got now, he loans Daisy to Luigi cus his brother can't get laid, and Rosalina pretends she's not down) But that's old enough.

Yeah I remember renting NES and SNES and Gensis games and being pissed because with only the weekend to finish the game I couldn't be starting over every week, especially in Final Fantasy games! So I'm stuck fucking around with stuff I've already done trying to get back where I was. Only since I know the way and I'm in a rush I'm now lower level with fewer items (because I didn't get lost and level grind by accident nor did I open every treasure chest because I knew which way to go) and that boss is harder than last time!

Forget my life!

Depends..can you rock a fez and hugh hefner robes? Also watch a video on pipe packing and lighting. Its way different from weed and will piss you off...and get real pipe tobacco. Captian black is a good one. In my area a lot of cig tobacco is labeled as pipe to get around taxes. The cuts and moisture are different

Holy hell that sounds awful. I rarely rented games because again, my mom was a gamer. I usually just played hers, until we moved in with my grandparents. And even then they'd just buy me shit rather than renting it. Which is weird now that I think back on it. I was a spoiled ass kid.
