Getting caught up on Kamen Rider My-Th. incredible

it's just cheese. The person reading it suspects it might be a fake out but nope, it's just a lot of cheese.

Getting Zelda symphony tickets, attempt #2: Somehow it's going even worse than the first attempt. The site is so hammered with traffic that it just straight up won't load. Or I get this. :)

Side note, but last time I played OoT was when N64 NSO first dropped, so before they fixed a ton of shit with it and welllllll before the Switch 2 added the CRT filter, which I never turn off now. Needless to say I'm already enjoying this playthrough much more.

Trying to do a quick run of Ocarina before the remake releases. Love the look of the remake, but I also get so nostalgic seeing these environments, man.

Finished Mario & Wario. Liked it a lot. Worlds 8 and 10 were kinda aggravating though. Probably not gonna complete the EX stages, but... eh, maybe I'll give it some time and go back to it later, idk.

I know this is a Game Freak game, but boy, that sounds just like one of the Kanto route themes.

Picked up the first hardcover for Witch Hat Atelier. God this book is massive.

The side view definitely has me convinced. The front view has me very impressed at whatever he did to grow his hair back lmao

9 games, ey? I promise I play more than just Nintendo stuff, but when I think of the games that have meant the most to me over the years... Also didn't want to put two Zeldas on here, but OoT would be #10. I LIKE Majora more, but the hype for the remake made me realize how much I care about OoT.

Wonderful 101, Kid Icarus Uprising, Punch-Out!! Wii, Animal Crossing, Star Fox Assault, Skyward Sword, Super Mario Galaxy 2, ARMS, Harvest Moon 64

Was looking at that Nintendo sale and saw a string of words I never in my life thought I'd see The Virtual Boy is sold out

Virtual Boy is sold out.

(The Plastic replica, anyway. Cardboard one is still in stock)

Amy's anniversary comic arrived today, nice. Now if only they'd do a hardcovers of the Tails one from a few years back... Actually, I'm still a little surprised they opted to do individual hardcovers for these instead of lumping them all into a slightly larger book. Doesn't matter I guess.

Best part of Adventures: everyone getting pissed at you if you try to go to the wrong place

Star Fox Adventures finished! With that, I can finally say I've beaten every game in the series. As for this game, it was... eh, I guess it was fine. I might enjoy it more on a replay, but it really just made me appreciate how polished Zelda games are, tbh. ...Now put Star Fox Assault on NSO.

First try. Really not fond of doing two separate mashing minigames in the same night.

Got a refund on the one I attempted to order like a month ago. Haaaaaaaaaaa... If you wanna know how that went, here's the seller's lifetime ratings... and then their ratings in the last month 🫠

4.1/5 stars. More or less the rating they had when I placed the order.

Frankly I could have all 9 of these be Bobobo and it'd still be accurate.

You know a game is peak when the credits are capped off with a list of production pets. Anyways, finished Orbitals. Wonderful game! Pretty short, but it never overstays its welcome. Absolutely gorgeous art throughout, great mechanics, just a really great co-op adventure.

SmashToons 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue @smashtoons.com · 15/09/2026

Orbitals is freaking gorgeous dude. Screenshots don't do it justice.

That's not even a new translation error, World Championship 2004 did the exact same thing. Just changed Magic to Spell without any regard for how it would affect things other than the card type

This card's attack increases by 300 points for every Dark Spellian or Spellian of Black Chaos in either player's graveyard.

For what it's worth, it's been implied to be the same harp ever since Skyward Sword. Interview from Nintendo Power, August 2011: www.zeldadungeon.net/wiki/Intervi... Hyrule Historia also implies as much on page 11:

The harp in Skyward Sword looks a lot like Sheik's harp in Ocarina of Time. Could it be the same one...?

060

SmashToons 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue @smashtoons.com · 14/09/2026

Last repost got me to look at Sheik's new design, and it made me realize something... It looks like they updated Sheik's harp to more closely resemble the design from Skyward Sword, albeit with more detail.

Started Star Fox Adventures last night on NSO. Only Star Fox game I've never played before. This map remix is cool.

It's not first party Nintendo, but for another exclusive: Orbitals' boxart is so striking, especially with the red case

SmashToons 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue @smashtoons.com · 11/09/2026

Finally started Orbitals. It's great so far! If you've played something like It Takes Two you probably know what to expect, but the aesthetic is perfect, the characters are fun, and it feels a bit more demanding than some other games in this style. Can't wait to play more!

Updated the #NSO Classics Chart with today's addition: #360: Star Fox Adventures (GCN) After such a long gap between Gamecube games, I'm a little surprised to see two so close together. Fine with me though. I never played Adventures as a kid, so I'm excited to finally try it!

"Tom Nook is evil because loans" is so boring. Nah, he's evil because of this stupid ass raffle in the GCN game that wastes your inventory and storage space for the whole month just to miss out on winning the most basic ass furniture items that you'd buy normally. No wonder this never came back.

My basement was storage SPECIFICALLY for this. 120 tickets (24 stacks of 5), plus another 20 held by my Gyroid.

Only got two of the 3 prizes. What a waste.

Decided to revisit my MCU tierlist with the last year of shows/movies. I think looking at this, I would move Echo up a tier. Maybe even two. I enjoyed it well enough. Also out of curiosity, this second image is the same tierlist, but only with stuff released after Endgame.
