4 job fiesta owns. it's really cool that a simple change can turn a solved game into a fun new challenge and that any party comp can beat the game eventually

i can't do it. I like making all the job points go up, and collecting blue magic spells for the whole party.

Man, I haven't played original SMRPG in years. Maybe I should. I'm excited to get to the three Zelda games I've never played, probably before the end of the year, at which point a fourth one will have released.

I have already had the Final Fantasy 9 discussion, so I will just say that many of the Final Fantasy games are fun and this guy is an rear end in a top hat.

imp zone is fun. it doesn't see a lot of activity, but that is okay.

i missed avatar chat, but i know who bought me three out of the seven angry avatars people have bought for me. i think i knew who bought the last batch of samus ones, but i forget.

e: i'mma play super mario 3d land (world? the 3DS one) because i still haven't loving 100%d that fucker

I will probably play Twilight Princess with my wife, on the way to our 100 percent all Zelda completion quest, and maybe some more Mario 3D world. I'm currently in the last level of, I think world 6? It's the one with the train, and I'm having difficulty getting all the stars in it.

We'll pour out some chu jelly for Iwata.

You need to start the level with a cat power up, if it's the train I think it is. I mean you don't HAVE to, but it's way easier.

Are you getting the gold flag every level?

Yup, and also the stamp. I've had to go back for a few of them, but playing as Peach helps, because the float almost always gets me there.

when i was a teenager i used to think about how cool it would be to have the actual arcade cabinet for TMNT 2 or the Simpsons Arcade Game in my mansion when i got rich, but i think even if i had a mansion, there are probably better ways to play both of those games if i really, really wanted to.

i am too busy playing zelda for that. i just beat the first dungeon in phantom hourglass, which made me blow on the screen, and obscenely told me to rub my stylus.

i didn't know you could jump across some of the pits, and my wife solved that puzzle for me. the boss was p. hard because you have to look at two screens at once.

Phantom Hourglass is my third favorite Zelda and some of the best utilization of the DS hardware from Nintendo in that gen, it's such an awesome game, enjoy

I have been really impressed with how intuitive the motion controls are so far. I'm looking forward to more of it.

Seriously don't. It's bad in ways that are very unfun.

i know, i have heard. :(

my wife and i undertook a quest to play every zelda game though, and if i can somehow play four swords, i imagine i can deal with the spirit tracks. the good news is that after that one and skyward sword (which i already played), we get ALBW (which i haven't played yet).

Spirit Tracks is literally the only Zelda game I would recommend skipping, and it's a series that has a number of weird and flawed games. Spirit Tracks is just awful.

well the upside will be that you can all laugh at my pain. i'll play my hero mode file on windwaker HD while i do it, so i don't lose my mind.

I just beat Katamari Damacy today on my PS2. The PS2 is a very good console. Why do you not already own a PS2, friend?!?

Mine was jointly owned by my brothers and I, and as the oldest brother, I let them keep it when I departed for college, as my roommate had one. One of my brothers still has it, and it still works great.
