i'm trying to complete the visuals for my pokedex (not even necessarily collect them all, just see them all) and i can't in fire red because no one has an omastar and you can't acquire one from any of the other gen 3 games including Colosseum and xd.

so now i need to buy leaf green and play up until blaine just to fucking get this shit. ugh.

it might be worth it if any of the gift pokemon/legendary pokemon you'd get from playing through again weren't available in the other games, but i can get all the legendary dogs, starters and hitmons from xd/colosseum.


all i wanna do is get the johto starters in emerald cuz i've never done that but i can't move onto hoenn until i finish kanto.

i am. hopefully be able to buy it next summer.

i'm coming for you



this or the delorean but thats more expensive and not as customisable

but i did it anyway, and guess what happened

so i ordered it like i said i was going to. 75USD which is roughly 100 bucks canadian. got here in a few days. i tried it out, but there was something wrong with it. it appears that a wiring issue came up and the batteries were overheating, resulting in a loss of power to the walkman (effectively making the tapes run a touch slower than they were supposed to). the device was overheating too, with obvious melted parts on the side. no big deal, right? i'd just send it back.

i request a return and the guy just gives my all my money back and tells me to throw my walkman away. what the hell? i was like okay.

i took the walkman to this electronic repair store and they fixed it in an hour. 20 bucks charge.

i got a functional sony walkman for 1/5th the price.

used the refund money to buy one of those gamecube GBA adapter things so i can play fire red and emerald on the big screen.

you have to create these emotional crescendos while sticking within a musical genre without overusing a similar artist or sound

and if you're on cassettes (which i am) you have to divide the playlist in two at the 45 minute mark (which is thematically interesting, as you can have one side of the tape embody one emotion and the other side, its complete opposite) which can be tricky and annoying and limiting

tough stuff man

tough stuff

jack-of-all-trades or master of one?


basically do you want to be an expert in a particular field or just know a few things about a lot of different topics

I'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS ALL BEFORE

lmao

i follow this girl on twitter (she's a friend of a friend) and all she does is retweet these makeup videos and stuff. her life is focused on following some sort of career in makeup.

every time i see a video or something all i can think about is how disgusting this process is. i mean you're basically hiding what you truly are to be accepted by people... and i mean, do you, but the fact that this is so widespread and acceptable is just... degrading

i'm not the only one who feels this way, right

just got through the spook house before the second castle 

the music is killer and the controls are tight

and theres something really satisfying about 2d platformers. the donkey kong game i have on 3ds is really addicting too.

If you have any old games with a corrupted memory unit (meaning it doesn't allow you to save your progress anymore) you might want to look at this.

These guys offer a relatively cheap service to replace your game's memory (10 bucks + shipping). They say they work on NES, SNES, N64, and Gameboy games. The actual memory you'd have to buy to replace it yourself costs 6 bucks + shipping so this doesn't seem like too bad of a deal, and you can save money by sending in more than one at a time.

Might be worth it for those of you with older consoles still kicking around.

i pulled my snes out of retirement to play some street fighter with my friend

my current list:

supermario world
street fighter 2
donkey kong country 3 dixie kongs double trouble
mario kart (dont remember the full name)
warios woods
kirbys avalanche

i have a folder on my phone dedicated to it

and a few on my computer that go back as far as b.next

also

guess who just bought a 100$ walkman

there's this cool walkman on ebay that, with shipping, would be about 100 bucks to buy

on the one hand, this is all my money

on the other hand, i've been raiding every thrift shop within a 50km radius and can't find a functioning portable cassette player.

what do you guys think i should do

pic

specifically the "splash of colour" nameplate

i want to use it for my custom nameplate if that's possible
