I'll wager this is the Duck Surprise of surprising endings.

Jam With The Band on DS is a funny old thing. If you've ever imagined "I'm A Slave 4 U" in the Donkey Kong Country 3 soundfont, then this is the software for you!!

MeMe the alien originally had 3 eyes, so you might find one in the envelope. I'm chuffed to get last year's present to you finally!

Oh I don't remember things! Or listen to you particularly intently... Nor am I able to interpret half the things you say that I am listening to... um... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 🎈😬

Alas, doesn't look like it. Not yet anyway.

Looks like some were fixed in today's update.

What happened to the Gold Pocket?

You don't need to get it filled up! There's an SD Card in it waiting for you 😁

After a week off, we have an unusual Wednesday update on the Nintendo Music app! It's the new Star Fox (Switch 2)! Sweet. I've been in a real Star Fox mood lately.

I could really go for a chicken drumstick made of peas for some reason...

021

SMBHQ Remastered, of course! But with care and love and probably never ever finished 😁

I'm so tempted... so so tempted...

Really not warming to any of the contestants on Great British Bake Off this year. I'm just here for Nigella.

The TV button taunted through the entire life of the console. It never worked here 😭

(At one point, I tried, stupidly, clumsily and unsuccessfully, to optimise NinDB for Nintendo DS and Wii browsers...)

The Wii came out just after I moved into a tiny room in a shared house. You better believe I used it for all these things!

In this country, we call it P. P. Hammer and his Pneumatic Weapon.

Probably, but that's an awful lot of stuff to figure out how to do to take some screenshots of Chibi-Robo Zip Lash!

The realisation that I have everything I need to record music from anything with a headphone jack has led to my DSi and 3DS systems being revived and explored in great detail.

In celebration over the sycamore gap tree sprouting, I wish to celebrate once more the best of all posts on the topic.

You can disable a driver check during Windows startup to force it to work, but you need to do that every time. Load of old farts!

100

My 3DS capture card doesn't work any more. Gutted. Apparently a Windows update screwed over the drivers and there's no permanent fix. 😖

I thought we had that shit contained! Someone must have let them out! But who? Who? Who? Who?!

100

Oh yeah, same 🤣 Except we're all lactose intolerant, so cheese pairings are WASTED on us!

Ooh, hello old friend! This was my first experience of computer too!

I'm suggesting this is a moral panic based on flimflam, perpetuated by people without anyone's best interests in mind. The best thing to do with obviously fabricated engagement bait is to deprive it of oxygen. How do we keep falling into this trap?

Strikes me that everyone involved needs to find something more important to worry about.

100

But... who is spreading the lie that interviewers give a shit?

I'm also having a DS revisit kind of weekend... What larks!

W... why not? Why would that matter in the least to a single person ever?!

I don't think I'd class you as unhinged or angry and I've been in your vicinity for decades. Your brand is weirdly specific rants, for sure.

I'm sure that's why I own it, but I have made very little effort to actually find it 😅

She also thinks "Tingle, Ankle, Knuckle and Dave Jr." is the funniest thing ever. And I'm inclined to agree.

For the first time today, my eldest expressed an interest in The Legend of Zelda. And on my whistlestop tour through the series, Wind Waker was the one she wanted to see more of and play for herself.

There's no reference to what happened to all the people in New Donk City when it was drowned under a sea of deadly mush, so I have to assume they all died horribly and Pauline Dragon Balled them back to life with the Banandium Core.

(Electroplankton probably ought to be here...)

I mostly grabbed "Touch! Generations" software and things that would have been Touch! Generations if the label stuck around to the end. Then I kicked out Nintendogs because it would have needed its own stack.
