Sword and Shield we're alright. I thought they were a little bland/boring, but my kids liked them more than I did. I'm hoping they take some ideas from Arceus to really try bring some new things to the table for Scarlett and Violet.

I wouldn't say I smash it now, but I'm decent at Tetris. When I was a kid, I wasn't very good at it, so I didn't like it, but since it was the pack in Gameboy game and I didn't have a lot of other options, I played it for the music. Today I can enjoy playing it solo, still not a fan of Tetris 99 as it is a reminder of my mediocrity.

And one more thing - take it easy on the uphill on your way back. I tried riding my skateboard to church last month (less than a mile away), and I pulled something pretty bad trying to keep my momentum uphill.

I've got a short cruiser and did the exact same thing a couple months ago. I was hobbling around for a week before I could even stand to put standing pressure on my leg.

It's been pretty dry for awhile, but managed to find a Wii Sports for $4 at Savers, and Pokemon Yellow at GameStop for $30. It still has a save file which is cool, 25 hours with ~level 50 Charizard, Venusaur, Blastoise, Sandslash, Machoke, and of course Pikachu. Sounds like a balanced team I would have built myself.

I had some Nintendo Points expiring so I figured I'd save on shipping and just order a bunch of stuff. I also got the Bravely Default II poster, but that's staying in the tube for now.

Killed 71.

In some cases I think it's personally better not to get involved in fate.

 

I agree, but I see it as it's not for me to decide that one person's life (or 5) is worth any more than another's. So unless pulling the lever leads to zero deaths, I chose not to do anything.

If you have a few minutes, consider taking this ethical quiz on the trolley problem. I think it's 24 questions and tells you how many respondents agreed with your decisions. I killed 81 and feel morally justified understanding that people will die and I will suffer mentally regardless of my decisions. Have fun!

Nier Automata is an amazing game and has an awesome soundtrack too. I'm glad it got a Switch re release, I'll definitely be replaying it.

Does it take time to get good? I played it a while ago on and wasn't getting into it. I only made it to the first planet (station/outpost?) after the tutorial area, if that makes sense.

I think I like Cassandra and Helena the most. They look like they could cause a lot of mischief.

Is that loose or complete? Because there are over 20 different DS games going for $100+ complete. The number is probably closer to 30-50 if you go through them all. And of those, you have some going much more than $100. 

How Is the Index Calculated?

Indexes are the average price of all items released for that particular console/set with a few items excluded.

Video Games

Loose Price. The index is an average of the loose (game only) price.

Excludes Variants. For example, Player's Choice, Not for Resale, Greatest Hits, Limited Edition versions are excluded.

Excludes non-commercially released games. Games like Nintendo World Championships are not included because they were not commercially sold.

Excludes unlicensed games. Games like Super Noah's Ark 3D are not included because they were not licensed by the console manufacturer.

Excludes all hardware. The indexes do not include systems, accessories, or controllers.

Overall it's still not too bad of a market, it's just the heavy hitters (and pokemon) that are dragging the needle higher.

It's my DQ machine. I've been meaning to pick up Rocket Slime, and I wasn't really a big enough fan of Joker to get the sequel. It doesn't have the same charms as the GBC games.

Just started collecting for the 3DS and of course I start chasing Atlus games to start me off as well as the Yokai Watch series.  . Am I making a mistake, it seems to be a decent amount of titles run close to $100 or more.

Yes, unless Atlus produces your favorite series (which they might). I think you're going to be experiencing wallet fatigue pretty quickly. Start with what you'd want to play normally, then work your way outward.

I "completed" Vampire Survivors on PC, meaning I finished all 114 challenges and unlocked everything. I loved it, and I'm not someone who is a big fan of arcade/high score games.

Wife's out of town for the weekend, so I'll be home alone with the kids. I should be able to get on for an hour or two. If we play TMNT, I'll be on Xbox/PC.

I'm in and I'm down for basing on location.

I’m starting to think I should invest in oil—everything I invest in collapses.

But seriously, what have you all been into lately.  This thread use to be active.

I actually dumped my COIN stocks a while ago and picked them up again when it was near the bottom. I’ve pretty much kept everything else the same.

And love him or hate him, what do you guys think about the Musk/Twitter deal.  No politics, just straight-up, you think he’ll go through with it and would you buy Twitter now with the hope that you can cash out and get a fair pay day?

I don't mess around with that kind of risk. Stocks associated with Musk fluctuate not so much as a result of the business but because of him. Could you make money, sure, but good luck timing it.

I love them, seen them live in San Diego with Avenged Sevenfold back in 2006.

I knew the thread before I even clicked on this post.

Happy birthday to @drxandyand @SailorScoutMandy's new nieces.

New Indie Showcase released this morning.
