Finally played and completed this one today. Great game, a little short but reaaaalllly fun. Great experience.

This game is terrible. Tried to get into it many times, put in the time, just not a very fun game.

Agreed.

Wait...so you didn't win that cruise and I'm not going with you then?

Final Fantasy VI, this one I can recommend to non gamers and they love it.

So my father's been visiting me the past few weeks, and as he was showing me his tablet, he made a comment about how he made sure to buy one with a lot of memory and what not as he figured it might be the last device of the sort he would ever purchase. A few days later I was reading an article about how the latest line of the subway had been approved for construction in the city where I live, and that the project would take about ten years to complete. Considering where this new line is slated to head, it would be very useful for my folks and I to ride, but I then came to the realization that in ten years time, my father will be about eighty years old. I don't like the physical ailments that I have experienced from getting older, but these are issues I have (and in some cases have to) come to terms with, i.e. we sometimes just have to deal with aches and pains from injuries long gone by; however, the thing that scares me the most about aging is watching my parents age, knowing the inevitable loss that will somehow strike. Then there's an added complication on top of that, i.e. living literally on the other side of the world from my folks, though at least I'm now a permanent resident and can come and go as I please, allowing me the freedom to visit my family more often. Obviously if you aren't close with your family or were abused by them or something, this might not be the thread for you, but for everyone else: how do you cope with the mental fuck that is watching your parents age and become elderly? I know I might come across as juvenile but I just find the whole thing totally frightening to think about, especially as my folks are definitely not the most health-conscientious people on the planet, something that just is what it is.

I've had plenty of dreams about finding rare items.

Then you realized that it was actually Famicom cartridges, and the game was Night Arrow

Thanks. So it looks like it's just a different, VGS-branded packaging, exclusive to one of the Kickstarter tiers? Has VGS ever considered partnering up with Broke Studio as publisher? They make quality products and the service is top-notch too.

Is the Kickstarter for the VGS version or the regular version? What is the difference between versions? Has the other version been released yet?

More garbage

Filipino style spaghetti we had tonight for dinner. It was actually surprisingly excellent.

It's a repro edit: on second thought, @Dr. Morbis is likely correct that it's legit

Some of my students call it "boke ay mon" or "boke ee mon". It drives me crazy. I told them a list of acceptable pronunciations, which included "poke uh mans" and the above "poke your mom", but said I'd better not ever hear that boke ay mon crap again.

I'd been looking at antique Asian opium pipes one day and decided I wanted one to display in my apartment...then after thinking about it further, realized it would likely be illegal to own.

Man this one hurts. Gonna grab me guitar and play a few songs now of his.

Really f'ed. Actually it's great. Fried chicken here is one of the specialties.

Sunday went over to the area around Sun Moon Lake. Had the opportunity to taste some Assam tea as well as some Ruby Red #18. You can see some ruby tea fields here, for example, and the Santa bags all have ruby red inside. Afterwards headed back to the city for hot pot. It was a fun day.

Had some fukd up fried chicken for dinner last night.

Might have heard them but if I did, don't know them by name. If I didn't hear them, never will. With all the great music out there, don't have time for this shit, lol.

That boat's sailed, sadly.

A buddy of mine in Taiwan just posted this video. Bet you can't guess where he's from. 422048708_765721462276216_8307317557481181281_n.mp4

Steak sucks here, both getting a good cut and options for grilling. I'd probably do shitty thin steaks pan fried or on an electric grill, both of which would make me sad.

According to the description: This ultra-rare Nintendo NES Myriad Six in One cartridge is a must-have for any collector. With six classic games... That's gotta be the reason.

Well for those who kept their game sealed, they should just order a second, corrected copy so that they have both variants of the game
