I do think people have done a good job of doing less wallowing here than the previous place, but maybe we've had less bad news

 

[EvilChameleon]

By February this place will be miserable

Luckily, Raccoon is providing a thread to contain the misery.

Yeah, and we have games dated by Nintendo and some slated.

Hey we got a little over a day left, are we gonna try to get @Suswave's lovely ST to 200 pages or what?

I promise to only reply and not do multiple quotes in a single message (which is what I normally do because I never remember to read everything and then quote for my replies). That should help add a few more posts.

Break up your replies over multiple posts

 

[hologram]

That will help too

At least you have a recent World Series. We Mariners fans live in perpetual hope the new rebuild will be a success, and then get another lost season. At least this year we were a game out of the playoffs. Only 21 seasons since the last playoff berth!

LOL yea we will be taking 2016 to our graves.

Y'all haven't had much success though. Keep fighting the good fight.

Yea, I'm not sure this place would stay calm if we had another 2020 like year from Nintendo with no direct lol

 

[Cyrus]

All I think we will get in January is an overview trailer or a Pokémon Presents to a Twitter drop of a small game to fill February. Other than that, Direct on February.

Speaking of Twitter drops, we could also get the release date for a potential other March game. In 2019 Yoshi's Crafted World was dated for March 29 in a random Twitter post on January 8.

You scared me lol

Meeting Zelda in OoT for the first time still gives me goosebumps. That part is timeless imo.

if the switch pro doesn't pan out before zelda I think we'll start dooming

15 fps zelda does things to a man

Raccoon's seasonal Direct threads and podcasts would be increasingly entertaining though, for the Bill Murray-esque degradation of hope.

sooooooooooo Ocarina of Time does things to a man, then?

yes

 

[HockeyBird]

Instead of getting depressed about not getting advertisements in January, we all spend that time playing and appreciating the games we already have?

Who's with me? Anyone? Anybody?

 

[Scrawnton]

Can using “reset the clock” be bannable?

 

[Supreme Overlord]

I would love for once to hear somebody use the term "no-brainer" in a way other than suggesting somebody's not doing something they obviously should be doing.

I'm not convinced there's anyone in the multiverse enough of a no-brainer to do such a ludicrosity.

That be crazy talk

(I'm getting back to Octopath in preparation for Triangle!)

 

[Sheldon]

I've had a lot of success with white flower Flabébé, but that is likely to drop in value when it can be bred in a current game.

There are also a few ways that it's relatively easy to get a bunch of shiny Pokémon, like the Ultra Wormhole minigame in USUM or just playing Pokémon Go on a community day.

Flabby was my go to back in the last month before my Bank sub ran out as I tried to wrap everything up best I could. Good to know my surplus of ultra wormhole shinies will be good for something. There's enough unwanted Hippowdons and Altarias to cover all patterns of Vivillon.

I'm not saying people won't doom in this scenario but they really shouldn't. This should be the expectation at this point

I beaten Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart earlier today, does that count?

No, but instead it will be met with a large number of disappointed "aw come on don't do that" responses, which is even more crushing

 

[Trevelyan]

Me too! Had a great time with it and I might go for a platinum, which is incredibly rare for me. Other than that, been really itching for another Dread playthrough.

DOOM

Doom abounds!
Ever waiting,

Me and my best friend with families were gonna celebrate the new years togehter, we dont get to hang out a lot since we live quite far from each other. However both our families had members who got sick the last few days so we had to cancel which sucked and I am really really bummed out about since we havnt met for a long time. But it is what it is - so we did our best!

We got a miniparty starting on Discord tonight, brough half a dozen beers each added a couple of friends and played Ultimate Chicke Horse for like 5 hours. Neither had played it before, laughs were loud, everyone got a bit tipsy and all things considered.. it was a neat way to celebrate with each other even if we wont be able to hang out. It's not the same ofc - but damn if it's not absolutely decent way anyway.

Play Ultimate Chicken Horse damnit, it's super weird, super fun and bizarre. One of the best party games I ever played.

Gotten Ratchet for Christmas along with guardians of the galaxy game. I may play some switch games next before guardians.

I may try get all the side stuff in ratchet though. That game was so good.

Can we replace “reset the clock” with a rally speech from brave heart or something.

Ive still got so many nintendo games to play. I still have pokemon ultra sun, kirby planet robobot, majoras mask, luigis mansion dark moon, bowsers inside story remake, and donkey kong country returns, all unopened for my 3ds. Im not late to the system, i just never got around to playing it much when the system was relavent,

outside of a few titles like animal crossing, ocarina of time, link between worlds, and mario 3d land. I was kind of over nintendo at that point in my life. But getting back into that ecosystem now, i realized i missed out on a ton of awesome games for the 3ds that came out later in its life. Its almost like a new system for me

I did not have “100 MPH winds and roads closed due to winter wildfires” on my 2021 bingo card, and yet here we are. Crazy.

Wait, wtf? Where?

 

[chocolate_supra]

That's TWO appearances of Bruce Banner on this page alone. Any more Banners and people will start to think this is a geocities page.

Waiting for the incoming questions as to what in the silicon heavens a geocities is.

I would very prefer the Idris Elba meme over a Mel Gibson meme.

Colorado?

How about an Owen Wilson “wow”

 

[SammyJ9]

Colorado, near Boulder (I was working by there today). We had 100+ wind gusts that took down power lines and caused fires, the worst one has burned over 600 homes in a mostly suburban area, I've never seen anything like it

I totally forgot how crappy he was! Scratch that suggestion then’

 

[The Giant]

About time.

I'll take "Forum Posts I Can Hear" for $1000, Alex.

Plus, completely unrelated to Gibson's crappiness, it's goddam Idris.

I hope you're not near there anymore.

 

[SammyJ9]

I hope you're not near there anymore.

I'm not! Thanks! It was just surreal driving away from all that and avoiding road closures and such, and then realizing that we're dealing with this kind of wildfire on a night where it's supposed to get down to around 15 degrees and snow tomorrow.
