I think it was just a case of bad timing, fueled by a mix of Mortal Mania and Nintendo vs. Sega energy that was big in '93. I never owned a Sega Genesis as a kid so MK on the SNES and GB (🀒) was all I had to play at home.

Like many NES era kids, my first RPG was Dragon Warrior (courtesy of Nintendo Power), but the game that got me hooked was Final Fantasy III on the SNES. It also holds the honor of being the first video game to make me tear up… that ending hits me in the feels every time! πŸ₯Ή

What if it's actually been your beloved 🦊 cap causing it all along? πŸ‘€

And I guess technically Petey Piranha β‰  Piranha Plant for Mario Kart but maybe that's just splitting hairs πŸ˜…
comment in response to post
I don't think Piranha Plant was an assist trophy in SSBU. I don't see it listed on the official page: www.smashbros.com/en_US/item/a...

I have the 1991 Calendar and LOVE the crazy designs and aesthetics. They were all over the place and amazing at the same time!

That doesn't mean Koopa Troopa is INSIDE the shell though right? πŸ‘€

Because you can't be a powerup (or assist trophy) AND a playable character in the same game 😀

I would much rather have a remake in the visual style of a modern Dragon Quest game, which really lets Toriyama's character designs shine, rather than just HD-2D. If ever there was a classic/2D Square game to give a big budget remake to, Chrono Trigger is most deserving!

I passed on games like Psychonauts and Beyond Good & Evil (as well as Resident Evil 4 and Viewtiful Joe) because they had, in my opinion, superior versions on competing consoles (Xbox and/or Gamecube) so I associate them more with those platforms

Time to go full Janshin on them 😈

I'm assuming these are the games and collectibles that you wanted to keep after selling off the rest of your collection. Do you find that having a more curated selection has made collecting easier and given greater value to the games you collect and enjoy?

Thanks again to @ohpoorpup.bsky.social for the Virtual Tap install πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

Sadly, did not beat the game under 2 hours (for the best ending), but I got all treasures πŸ‘‘ πŸ† πŸ’°

All Alarmo DK themes should be taken exclusively from DK64 🍌

Every. 🀬. Time. Now we just need to see this same exact scenario but with Gilgamesh and Excalipoor 🀑

My brain keeps hearing the word "bum" in place of "bomb" due to the British accent, and it has made the video even more entertaining than usual πŸ˜˜πŸ‘Œ

I was going to ask the same thing, but I couldn't remember the name and then made the mistake of Googling it (hint: "controversy" is Google's suggested search when looking it up by name)

You can always reload your last save or New Game+ if you still want to πŸ’― the game or get all trophies, and if not, move onto the next game! Backlogs are long enough as it is 🫠

If you're interested in getting your console modded/recapped etc., I highly recommend @ohpoorpup.bsky.social ! bsky.app/profile/ohpo...

Lastly, I want to add that this package went through hell and back but somehow made it home safely. I cannot thank @ohpoorpup.bsky.social enough for all her helpful advice in recovering my package πŸ₯Ή
comment in response to post
She also did a recap and Virtual Ribbon install so the original 3D is still viewable through the visor, if you so choose to melt your eyeballs πŸ‘οΈ πŸ‘οΈ

A couple of these could almost pass for Bloodborne concept art

How far down the rabbit hole are you going?? I noticed eBay activity is up on Jakks Blaster Strike PnP's since your posts and livestreams πŸ‘€

Along those lines (requires an English guide), the precursor to Dragon Quest Sword is also a fun plug n' play motion controlled romp…

Thankfully, Alarmo is known to work best for individuals rather than couples - perfect for your soon-to-be bachelorhood! 🀑

My hubby rescued this little guy from his work ("They were just going to throw it out!") It's only in b&w bluescale, but it kinda adds to the charm πŸ₯°

For those unaware, the issue I am referring to is discussed here www.reddit.com/r/AnaloguePo...
comment in response to post
I had tried multiple cheap solutions from Amazon that NEVER worked with the Analogue Pocket dock, but I took a chance because I had a feeling @retrofrog.bsky.social 's would work and, lo and behold, it did! πŸ˜„
