  1. I was so ready for Bomberman and then it turned into that single player game. It was ok but everyone plays Bomberman for one reason alone. I also remember that the credits to that game were like 20 minutes long or something like that.
  2. General Switch Discussion

    Super Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Ultimate incoming!
  3. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Online Thread

    Great stage @RedShell. Great matches tonight with a few very close and tense ones. And can I just say how much I love that we all now know to automatically play it as a doubles match when that happens. Was it Minecraft vs Starfox?
  4. Looking back on Pokémon Starters (Paldea - Gen 9)

    These are the only starters that matter. I'm a Gen 1 guy, loved them. those three starters will always be better than any other starter the games have come up with. Yeah I know, rose tinted glasses and all that. Like you said, Charizard is one of the top three Pokemon in the world. Heck I even have a Charizard onsie cause he's such an awesome Pokémon. Just trying to think who you say is the other one that is more popular (other than Pikachu), I'm guessing one of Jigglypuff, Togepi or Eevee.
  5. The Wrasslin' thread

    What a difference a week makes. This really is the best time of the year for wrestling, but this is just extra spicy this year.
  6. That last Happening space had a Swap Positions which would have completely changed the outcome. Great game.
  7. I mean... I'm happy enough to take your word for it, but it sounds like it has to be experienced to fully appreciate its atrocrity. I fixed it for ya. 😂
  8. 3DS's Online Swan Song

    I would be in but I’ve lent my 3DS to my other half so don’t have access to it.
  9. I always remember in the extra material from the Lord of the Rings DVD's that Peter Jackson said that they had to do that and it would either be the best piece of filming or a total train wreck if the first one flopped. I do agree though, Avatar has a very specific story and timeline in the original show. Even if they go with extending the timeline a bit for it not to all happen in one year, you still have a full story that you can plan out to take place over a couple years at least. Its a fairly complete story in that it shouldn't take longer than 3 or 4 seasons, so if you are going to go for it, go for broke and just film it all in one go as you know your actors are going to age at such a pace that they will grow up too fast if you don't.
  10. The Disney Thread

    Moana is one of my favourites from recent times, this looks stunning visually I hope it can live up to the first one.
  11. N-E Book Club (or just a chat about books)

    Used to read a fair bit back in the day but other things took over. But recently I’ve had the urge to find something to read again. Luckily local Radio station here has been doing a monthly book club thing too and the last book mentioned sounded a little interesting to me. Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree Never heard of it nor the author, but the book for the month was to be something easy and light as they had done heavier books before that and this was mentioned. It’s a shortish book, easily read in a few days, fantasy but quite a different fantasy than dragons and battles. I enjoyed it and it is an easy read. It’s about an Orc that wants to put her bloodshed and battling behind and decides to open a coffee shop in a small villages that has never heard of coffee. The story becomes a story of family and friendships made along the way. It seems to get quite favourable reviews too. Worth a checkout if you want something light to read. After that I went and found one that I’ve always wanted to read. I’ve loved the film since seeing it as a child and knowing now how things differ between original books and film adaptations I wanted to check it out. So… The NeverEnding Story So first off, the film adaptation is like half the actual book. The first half at that, the film did follow it pretty closely with some alterations and such, but it’s the second half that shows so much more of the world and gives you so much more of why Fantasica (film changed it to Fantasia) exists and so much more of the world. Though it also feels like a different book altogether. I can see why it wasn’t a part of the film. A great book though, easy to read and seems to put across a well intended morale at the end there. If you’ve ever seen the film but never read the book, I’d say read it. Get a feel for what more to the story there is and why it is called the NeverEnding Story too.
  12. Lego!

    Love this set. Great display set.
  13. The Wrasslin' thread

    I remember that PPV and what happened. It was just so surreal and seeing that they never showed the ring at all and always had the camera on JR or the crowed, you just knew it was serious. Back to now, and it seems that after the events of SmackDown, it seems everyone is pissed that the main event for WM is now set and it doesn’t include Cody. Seems that t even if they did want the mega match between Rock and Roman, it was not like this.
  14. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Online Thread

    That was both hilarious and evil. We were trying to figure out how we got off there. Even the second time we played it (which may have been that time) we still all tried running to the edges to get off.
  15. Two great mini games between myself (Mario) and @Dcubed (Wario) just now in our games. Results to come later.
  16. N-E Mario Kart 8 DX Get Together

    Yup. And last night neither me nor @S.C.G guessed right.
  17. Mario vs. Donkey Kong (16th February 2024)

    Am I missing something but how do you play level 2,4 and 6? Also you can use the N64 controller to play this game.
  18. N-E Mario Kart 8 DX Get Together

    It’ll just be postponed till next week. But yeah I think it would have been.
  19. N-E Mario Kart 8 DX Get Together

    No @Glen-i tonight so I’ll be hosting the room. 8pm, Players Choice
  20. The Wrasslin' thread

    Yep. Torn tricep. I think the rumble has become more of part of a story now rather than catapulting the next big star. I remember it used to always be someone on the verge of being a big star and the rumble was the final punch they needed. That seems to be what Money in the Bank is now and the rumble is start of WM main event match, as such it’s just a big name winning. I’d love for a rumble again where you just don’t know who will win and maybe it’ll be a guy (or girl) who’s just getting there but need that extra.
  21. The Wrasslin' thread

    The Road to Wreslmania if usually always the best part of the year and this looks to be shaping up to be another great run in. Bring it on.
  22. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Online Thread

    Great matches there. Two Sudden Deaths against @Ike in a row and I won them both. Those were fun. Last match of the night and Bowser shows how much of a power house he is. 10 KOs.
