Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 25/07/2026I came across this album recently on Spotify, liked it enough to grab it on CD. Its a few years old, but check it out if you havent heard it. 000
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 23/05/2026My son playing some Super Mario Land. I bought the Lego Game Boy today. Sadly it seems the pocket screen is deteriorating. 021
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Actually, the movie was fine. Maybe they should have cut back to Rosalina in the middle for awhile and the ending was abrupt. But it was fun enough, the fight scenes already felt Smash Bros like haha. Maybe they will eventually. 230
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 30/03/2026Finally used the gift cards from Xmas to buy something. One of the best anime series I’d watched in awhile. Will watch S2 soon I suppose, time to re-sub to Crunchyroll.. 000
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Saw my Switch in the dock and it looked like this. Cant reboot or turn off. The battery was playing up recently, the indicator wasnt working correctly. Anyone know? 000
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 09/02/2026Picked up the Retro-Bit Saturn controller 2.4ghz version. Will use on Switch, but I also got it for when my SuperStation One FPGA Mister console comes! 110
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 09/01/2026Yeah, Nintendo should have definitely done this for JoyCon 2 buttons. Needs more colour on the current versions. 010
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 05/01/2026We just started up Astro Bot, enjoyed the short pre-installed one. Playing this, yeah its like Mario. Found it funny they even copied the water spiders from Wet Dry World lol 110
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 15/12/2025Bought the 8bitdo USB adapter to connect controllers via Bluetooth. I can now use the Wii Remote on the Switch, allows the NES/SNES mini controllers to work. Plus, with some slight re-mapping can play Mario 64 with the Nunchuk. 031
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 18/10/2025Saw this Super Mario Bros Mini Game Boy Color fan game. Its pretty cool! A video about the game. youtu.be/3aQ-FEVRyGs 010
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 11/10/2025Looking forward to one day trying Yooka Replayee. Popped my Switch copy in briefly, the N64 tonic filter does a good job of giving that feel. I know the costume is in Replayee, not sure about the filter though. 010
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 05/10/2025Updated my RetroUSB AVS NES, felt like playing some NES games. Saw one on a video recently called Faria that seemed like it might be alright. Showing my son the old carts and now he’s playing super mario bros off the famicom cart. Infinite lives cheat for less frustration too :) 020
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 03/10/2025While higher res is nice, they didnt really try to preserve the textures artistic style. Probably only really in a few places that’s be felt. But a bit of a shame. 010
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 27/09/2025My son and I played some Wii U today. Mainly a bit of NSMBU. But now he’s having a go at Jett Rocket from Wiiware. They should remaster this stuff and put it out cheap on Switch. 010
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 25/08/2025Picked up the new complete release of Jim Hensons The Storyteller! 020
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 16/08/2025Different race modes. Balloon race is a great idea. 000
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 16/08/2025Time Trial has different modes and objectives to do. Also, completing various things in game unlocks things, sorta like an achievement list. 200
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 16/08/2025I am trying out the Mario Kart 64 mod, Amped Up. Its really cool, new tracks, modes, options, 3D racer models and more. Here’s the release trailer again. Check it out if you can. youtu.be/vvg20Gd58WA?... 110
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 19/07/2025Picked up Soul Reaver. Not played it before, but liked the reviews and impressions from people when it came out digitally. 100
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 13/07/2025I have decided to sell my Brand New Famicom Micro and Pokemon Blue 2DS. The Famicom Micro is the Japanese model, features nicer packaging when you open it up. Pokemon Blue 2DS is the Australian release. Prices around completed listings on eBay to start with. Micro - $1000 AUD 2DS - $700 AUD 021
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Switch 2 setup at a JB near me. Only demo that was playable was Mario Kart though. 010
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 05/07/2025Trying this Game Boy Squid Game. Its pretty cool, the manual etc looks great too. 64bitsanimation.itch.io/squid-game-b... 110
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 27/04/2025Making Progress in Lunar. Its quite easy so far to do small chunks and complete a dungeon or story segment. I started making my way South. 000
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 21/04/2025Im contemplating selling off some of my more valuable items. All they do is sit in a cupboard.. RE4 Chainsaw Controller, Brand New Famicom Japanese GB Micro, Brand new Pokemon Blue 2DS Edition. Im bad at pricing things, I usually screw myself out of max money. Hmm. 020
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 12/04/2025The game does have shimmer when scrolling. Probably looks worse here with the encoded video, but it is there while playing. 000
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 12/04/2025Some info for #lunarremasteredcollection. - Save files work across classic and remastered modes. You must back out to the main menu to change however. - Post FX can be turned on/off - Classic mode has options for 3 CRT filters and a black border. It also has the post FX option. 230
Nicholas B @nicholasb.bsky.social · 12/04/2025EB messaged me this morning that I could pick this up! Early release! #lunarremasteredcollection 250
