I really need to play Kirby. It looks amazing.

That's neat! I have small hands, but I can't hold a regular NES controller anymore because the edges dig into me. I use dogbones.

I always get blasted for this, but always the 7th saga for me

I don't know why it gets so much flak.

Just played through adventure mode level 1 of Ring Fit Adventure (don't judge me).

I quite like the running/exploring part but the combat system seems a bit disconnected. Still pretty fun though, and I can imagine it would get pretty challenging on the more intense settings.

I watched someone stream that a couple weeks ago, and the battle sequence seemed to take forever. Looks like a good workout, though!

I love Kwirk!  Awesome, because I don't hear much talk about it.  

I am a huge ATLUS collector and that's how I discovered the game.  It's pretty fun - somewhere around here I have an advertisement poster of it.  

Seeing your avatar reminded me that I have never beaten Okami, either. There's no excuse!

Inindo: The Way of the Ninja. Back in the day, I rented it twice and got to the end, but I couldn't beat it before I had to return it. I also tried playing it on an emulator but never managed to complete it. The game is pretty jank, but I love it. One of these days...

Pikmin 4 is high up on my list for sure.

Definitely. And I hope it's more like 2.

Welcome! 

Hey Beni! Welcome to VGS!

Welcome Tom

Welcome!

Glad to see you here, Tom!

I liked this site more than NA the minute I got on. First and foremost the community, and second of all how easy the site is to use, the like buttons... Just love everything.

I've been waiting for Warcraft IV for 15 years. Best thing I got was III Reforged, which I still need to play.

Welcome, Doug

Honestly I'm perfectly fine with the default sound, although I know I'm probably in the minority there. If we were to change it, I'd probably want it to be something subtle that wouldn't be too long. Like the rupee collected sound from most Zelda games, or the coin sound from Mario games. While I don't dislike the idea of something like the item fanfare from the Zelda games, I feel like that'd be a little overly long for a notification sound, I feel like it should be very short, and perhaps somewhat neutral. A fanfare of some kind feels like it would be a bit... overly celebratory for a simple notification. But I'm just spitballing here, those are just my two cents.

I agree with this. Something short and sweet. I vote for the Mario coin sound. Of course, I already turned of the sound, but I'd put it back on to hear a different notification.

It was two spaces a long time ago, but now one is generally accepted. A lot of style guides I come across these days specifically say NOT to use two spaces anymore.

Nice to see you again! I remember you from the NES ScoreBoard (AVS).

Haha! That was great, wasn't it? Haven't uploaded a score in a long time.

She's definitely a fierce competitor in the contests. It would be great to have her back.

Tonya! Welcome!

Hi! I really like your avatar (it's like the little guy in your previous avatar grew up)

It is actually a wolf - from Okami

Tho I think pup can still apply cause baby wolves can be called pups along with other terms. 

Cool!

I just got an Amaterasu pin a couple weeks ago.

Awww adorable!

Welcome!

Welcome!

@m308gunner Agree with you on Punch Out. I finally beat that a couple years ago. I couldn't make it past Sandman as a kid, and the first time I got to Tyson as an adult he scared the crap out of me. I put the game down for years. Once I got used to Tyson, he really wasn't that bad.

Other NES heavyweights for me were Battletoads and TMNT, neither of which I got very far in (I think I at least made it past the water level in TMNT).

I don't do anything on Halloween except pass out candy for a couple hours. My brother and I let the kids pick out what they want. By the end of the night, we give the kids handfuls of whatever's left and call it a day. You could try passing out some candy and being social that way.

Nice pic! Welcome
