Gonna admit. I'm going to get that Ruby again, but honestly I really hope this one's story is fine tuned some. Out of all the games, Ruby and Sapphire were pretty much my least favorite.

Then again, that could -possibly- be some residual bitterness since that was the first and only generation where your Pokemon couldn't be traded from the previous generations.

Those poor 251... forever stuck back in GBC limbo, while the rest of my lil guys have moved on...

On a minor scale, what I've come to remember that really annoys me is how you are only allowed to transfer 6 pokemon within 24 hours from your GBA cartridges to the DS ones.  :l I mean really?

I've beaten a handful of difficult games in my time, such as Battletoads, Ghost N Goblins, and Super Meat Boy B)
Nice! Now try Zelda II. Nobody beats that game. Except maybe you if you try... How hard is it, do you ask? Let's just say this...
I couldn't get to the second dungeon. Not I couldn't beat it. I couldn't even get to it, because it's so hard and annoying.


Protip: If you ever get to the final boss, thunder is your friend. Your best friend ever.

Also, anyone who beats Battletoads gets insta gamer cred. Doesn't matter which one.

That's adorable. I also approve of this as that's the only item I wear in game.
Other than the AJ hat sometimes cause... AJ.

:3 Unlike Sonic I dint Chuckle


Cookies to you.

Anyways, I don't mind the new looks. Then again, I enjoyed the Archie Sonic comics for years and they had so many looks it's ridiculous. Since they stated it's an alternate world anyways, I just mark it up as "one of the others guarded by Zonic. Granted, it's weird seeing Knuckles beefed up, but it doesn't look to bad to me.
Honestly, if the game stays what they said it was as a 4 player co op game, one that doesn't force couch co-op or "screen stretch so you're all tethered together", nor slows down the gameplay, then I say bring. It. On.


Besides, tails looks completely freaking awesome and that's all that matters.

I swear I can still taste vomit 5 days after throwing up.

I'm gonna go brush my teeth again.

I brush my teeth twice a day and my breath smells. For NO APPARENT REASON.


Brush your tongue.

Having bad breath is never on my list. Really annoying.  >A<

Quote from: Pinkie Pie on 2014 May 04, 19:15:57I had a chocolate covered graham cracker in my bag and it got out of the wrapper. All my stuff was coated in melted chocolate. Especially my 3DS. Right on and deep in the charging hole.  :c


Holy muffins, that's awful! Hope nothing was ruined! >A<


It's a Nintendo product. Some cleaning solution and elbow grease should make it continue to last till the end of time.

Which actually brings me to an annoying thing: Certain new systems that are infamous for breaking within a year of purchase. I wonder which two companies those could be. lol

Is the Wonderful 101 even worth it?


I'm thoroughly enjoying it. The controls take some getting used to, but it's a very entertaining and sometimes unforgiving game. Great story, with some excellent comedy tossed in.

Sometimes if you fail and "die", the game even gets mad at you in certain areas. Though there are only, like, 8 actual different abilities, you can control ANY of the 100 heroes you wish to control as long as you get them on your team.

"OMG YOUR MANE AND TAIL ARE ON FIRE!" "What? No, it's just color."

Kind of hard not to when your life is pretty much integrated with it.[/spoiler]

Origin questions.
Spoiler: show
1. When and how did you get inspired to create them?
After my friend showed me the Winter Wrap Up song. Razzin frazzin...

2. How did you decide on their personality, interests, etc?
Sort of a cross between me and the opposite of me rolled into one. Ironically, the only OC for anything I've made with shorter hair than my own.

3. Why did you give them the name you did?
I was thinking of things people use flame for, like "an old flame", but that sounded dumb. So I just added Mane onto it. Kind of a cross between "main squeeze" and "my flame", I guess. Shush.

4. Compare yourself to your OC in any areas from genres, hobbies, anything.
Pretty much me. Just a lot more showily pessimistic usually. Also he gets to work at night and be awake during that time.

Wait, what? I must have not been paying attention at that part. o.o I thought it was the bundle version only.
WHELP, guess I'm getting a free Wii Party U or New Super Mario Bros U!

Rainbow Dash got her cutie mark from doing a Sonic Rainboom, so her rainbowy cutie mark makes sense to some extent.

However, I can't seem to find a connection with lightning/electricity and flight...


Well, if he's quick as lightning or good with lightning clouds, either will work.

Also, I guess if he's an electrical warning sign. That also would do it.

[...]Wall O Text![...]

Well technically, two ponies have been in wheelchairs, with one having muscular dystrophy. At least, I believe that's what the Make A Wish OC had in Trade Ya. So it could actually be possible to have, in the confines of the show's rating, a character disabled from an accident.
Heck, half of Leap of Faith was. lol

As much as I rag on really cruddy, unoriginal OC designs, I still think all OC's are perfectly valid.
They can be horribly unoriginal, entirely self-indulgent and total self-insert wish-fulfillment fantasies, but at the very least you're still doing something creative. So long as people are having fun with it, I honestly don't mind :] (Mary-sue's and all!)

Why when I was a youngin', I used to draw romantic pictures of myself and my favorite anime character as a couple :3
....granted, I wasn't even that young...I....I was still doing that stuff at like...age 17...
But I'm 25 now, so...so it was totally a long time ago!! YEAH!!

Also Batman is a total gary-stu, but nobody cares 'cause it's perfectly normal for men to have fantasies about being ultra-cool, dark & broody billionaire playboys :U


Both of DC's biggest heroes are super Mary-Sues. >_> That's why I tend to not like their stories.

You totally dated Tuxedo Mask, didn't you? It's ok. We won't tell.

Honestly, going back on subject, I can't really complain about OCs with names that seem "obvious." I mean, Rainbow Dash is fast and has a rainbow mane and tail. Pinkie Pie is pink and bakes pies or uses them as gags. Fluttershy is a fluttery natured, shy girl. Filthy Rich is... filthy rich, and on and on.Honestly, there's probably more "unoriginal names" in the show than in the fandom. Not that I don't enjoy either.  lol

1)Learning a new art style.
2) Winning R2-D2 made of Legos from Target by guessing the amount he's made of.
3) Getting my brother right between the eyes with a suction cup crossbow years ago. (Shush, don't judge. Our friend jokingly told me to. So I whipped the crossbow up with one arm and fired randomly. >_> I blame age! Totes young!  0:) )

Honestly, as far as mane 6 relatives, I can forgive it when it's Applejack. Seriously, her family is freaking enormous, she's probably got kin dotting the maps out there.

Applejack: Always related.

Did the pjs make you go faster, at least?

What really grinds my gears is how digital games cost as much as physical, barring massive sales, even though production costs are substantially lower.


That's why I use Steam.
The deals Mane, the deals.
It's a wonderful feeling to buy $200 worth of games, and only pay $30 at most for it.


Yeah, they all try to mimic Steam, but they never come -close-. Games on there can go for 50% as they come out, and higher % off than that during seasonal sales. I mean -what-. Why would I buy the console versions, when that's an option? Plus the Steam ones can be modded so easily.

I've been trying to egg my brother on to buy the edition over there in Europe so he can send me the goodies.  lol
Here's hoping he magically grows money!
