(no subject)

Okay, I've been bored a lot, but I finally figured out what's been missing in my life. And I can't believe it took me this long to realize it.

No, not a job.

Video games!

Seriously. I haven't played any in a long time, aside from a couple times a month at the arcade, or even less often at some friend's house.

So I've decided to wean myself off of this lack of video games. Starting slow, with stupid Yahoo! puzzle games. Then maybe I'll put in another replay of CT or FF9. Or finish the replay of FF1 I've already got going. During or after that, maybe I'll restart or resume DW3, 4, or 7 (man, I love that series, but there must be something wrong if I'm never compelled to get more than about 1/3 into the game); or buy some N64 classics like Mario64, Paper Mario, or a Zelda, since I happen to have an N64 laying around with practically no games. Then by the time that all bores me, I'll have a job, and reward myself with a PS2 and FFX, Kingdom Hearts, and FFX2. And if I get sick of RPGs....Genesis emulator. Sonic.

I feel much better about my life and my future now.

Anonymous dude has a point. I HIGHLY suggest the early DK countreys for Super Nintendo. You can download emulators and use your computer if you don't have SNE hanging around anymore.

I'm going to add a few games to the Classics list for you, Deshie-poo:

NES:
- Kirby's Adventure (one of the greatest SNES games ever made)
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2, the arcade port (Classic if I ever saw one)
- Contra, Super Contra, etc.
- Ducktales
- Legend of Zelda (c'mon, the original)

SNES:
- Super Mario Kart (The original will never die)
- Super Mario World
- Rock And Roll Racing (one of the BEST racing games ever made)

I find that Kirby's Adventure is one of the most underrated NES games. And its so freakin good!! The SNES one that I have seen was sok (you could ride around on hamsters, owls, squid, etc) but the original was the best.

Too bad you sold the game Judah! I miss Kirby.
