I don't know where you get off saying that Advance Wars is more difficult than Fire Emblem, Diageo. And you wonder why you don't have any friends. :p

No, I don't. :p

I hate it too. And when I say "it", I mean the world and everyone in it.

It'll do while we wait for a new Advance Wars.

You're probably right. For some reason, it didn't even cross my mind that someone would play the console version of Dragon Age, despite being in a PlayStation thread.

It doesn't show its age so much as it's an intentional homage to games like Baldur's Gate 2.

Haha, that was exactly my reaction too. :p I wish I could have bought it on Amazon, which had it for less than half that, but c'est la vie... At least using my old PC is making me appreciate my sucky old laptop more.

My laptop's AC adapter died, so now I've had to order a new one for £50 and I'm stuck using this old PC from the early '00s while I wait for it to arrive in the mail.

Ah, VGChartz... The 'Z' means they're trustworthy.

What they want is to talk to the dead, so they're not getting what they want at all.

Hahaha, there's so much wrong with this statement. Unless your plan was to rip out ReZ's heart and stomp on it, in which case, mission accomplished.

No one wants to hear about how you're planning to masturbate, Peeps.

Haha, it's like when someone asks you to do some work for their website and when you ask them how much they're paying, they say that they're not paying you but this is totally free exposure for you. In fact, you should be glad that they're not asking you to pay them, because this is sure to lead to a ton of work for you in the future. :p Well, I guess this isn't quite the same thing. Your drawing is the nicest one in that screengrab, anyway. I'm not sure who picked that awful monkey picture. Hopefully not the same person.

They all move if you haven't relocated them yet.

Sheesh, you try to give a guy a compliment... :p

Yes, Peeps. You were adorable. :p

Well, excuuuse me. Your Facebook page was slim pickings, so I had to make do with what I could find. Just be glad that one picture that was even older didn't fit my purposes.

Sorry, for some reason I found the way you said it hilarious. :p

I like how that post was completely awesome... ... Until I scrolled down further. :p

You just said that you can't stand turn-based battles, so I'm not sure how you can think that's fair.

It's all very clever when you think about it. It takes three presses to turn on the 3DS because it makes people more and more eager to play the console with every press of the power button. Those tiny rubber feet leave marks on the screen when you close the console so that you're not going to ever want to stop playing for fear of ruining the screen. The console launched with no good games so that all those averages games will have a chance to sell, plus it's a way to get people to broaden their horizons. The console shipped with just one analog nub so that everyone who bought a console at launch will spend money on the redesign. The console is region-locked so that people will buy several consoles from different regions to play all games - watch Nintendo arbitrarily decide which games get released where. David Dakota calls the 3DS "Nintendo's worst-designed product ever". I say it's the best.

I don't think your time is as valuable as you think it is.

The cradle does the exact same thing as plugging the AC adapter directly into the 3DS does. It only saves about three seconds. I mean, I love convenience as much as the next guy, but it's literally the difference between just putting your 3DS down or putting it down and plugging in the adapter. Three seconds, tops.

Meanwhile, America still isn't getting Xenoblade.

I'm not aware of anyone who's willing to trade for them. Your best bet is just running around and picking up all of the collectables until you find what you need, assuming you're a high enough level that most enemies will leave you alone. I'm pretty sure timed quests disappear off your list once it's too late to do them, though (like how when you get two opposing quests and they're both timed - the other one just disappears when you finish one of the quests), so if that's your only reason for running all over the place looking for collectables, I wouldn't bother.
