Well I beat the main ending of Gurumin, but apparently there's a "true" ending I have to find now. Probably has to do with those bonus levels, which are just slightly-reshuffled earlier levels that you go through backward. Which are kind of a pain, but at least they have cool new remixes.

Fuck you, Magestic Mordred, you are dead now. And I didn't have to gain more levels. Turns out the key was giving Dunban a hell of a lot more agility so he could just dodge party wipe attack. And sleep status apparently breaks visions, or at least can rerandomize them into something potentially less threatening. I also managed to steal about 10000 AP by Yoinking and running away before taking it down. Game balance!

Began a simple Nuzlocke run of a randomised version of FireRed by following these 5 rules:

  • Any Pokémon that faints is considered dead, and must be released or put in the Pokémon Storage System permanently.
  • The player may only catch the first Pokémon encountered in each area, and none else. If the first Pokémon encountered faints or flees, there are no second chances. If the first encounter in the area is a Double Battle in dark grass, the player may choose which of the two Pokémon they would like to catch.
  • While not exactly a definite rule, the general consensus is that players must also nickname all of their Pokémon, for the sake of forming stronger emotional bonds.
  • Also not a definite rule, but the general consensus is that a black out/white out is considered to be "game over", even if there are Pokémon left in the PC.
  • First pokemon you select from the 3 starters you must keep.

Dis gon b gud B)

 

Edit: Probably should've mentioned this will be my very first Nuzlocke run of a Pokemon game. The fact that I'm going straight for a Randomiser should be interesting...

Going to play Seiken Densetsu 2/3 and Fire Emblem 3/4 on my Retron 5, thanks to english patch capabilities. I'm also going to try out some SMW Romhacks, so that will also be fun :3

I beat the main story of Yoshi's Woolly World. Amazing, amazing game. Pretty hard, too. Currently I'm aiming for 100%. :)

Playing the Golden Sun series again.  Just beat the first game and now I'm working on Lost Age.  Just got to Kibombo.

 

Also working on Final Fantasy Tactics Advance again.  Gotta love 3DS GBA VC.

Okay, finally found some time to sit down and play more Xenoblade 3D. I'm still in the beginning or kinda beginning, but I like how the game is starting to open up a bit now.

Fired up classic Tetris on the NES just recently. I got to around 107k points and 160 lines before crashing shortly after getting to level 16. Pretty good run overall, but I had a few times my judgment lapsed and it hurt me badly. I was expecting a couple lines to clear time to time only for them not to because I didn't notice I left a gap. Honestly, once I get to level 19, I'm hopelessly screwed. Unfortunately, I didn't score high enough for the UFO to show up with the castle or whatever it's supposed to be being launched instead; I got the giant rocket instead. You need 120,000+ for the UFO. On the SNES version packaged with Dr. Mario, I can hold my own, but that's because it remembers left/right input after a block lands and there is a brief delay before they drop. This also makes level 29+ possible on the SNES version, but the level caps off at 31. On the NES version, level 29 is impossible outside of tool assistance, although if you played blocks just right, you could possibly hit 300 lines and make it to level 00, which is actually level 30 before dying.

Playing Gravity Rush Remastered on the PS4. I played the Vita version and I have to say that the PS4 version blows that version away big time! Now that the game runs at 60FPS on the PS4, the combat is much smoother. And it definitely makes a big difference in gameplay as the controls are much sharper and responsive. Definitely worth the $30 if you have a PS4.

Currently playing Wind Waker HD on the second quest. Beat the main quest about a year and a half ago, but didn't get all the goodies, so this time, I'm going to 100% the game... well... mostly. I don't feel like getting all the figurines...

 

This will keep me busy for the month until Twilight Princess HD comes out.

Second quest was what I'd used on my Gamecube file to get all the figurines. Fortunately, it's easier on WWHD thanks to the Tingle bottle pictures passing along hard-to-get pictures, which is nice. I've never gotten full 100% in either game though, that's quite a feat. Granted, I've never explicitly made it my goal to get 100%, but it always seemed daunting to me. Which is actually pretty awesome about the game; the other 3D Zeldas, apart from Majora's Mask, are quite easy to get 100% in, I feel. Minus one or two Poes or Skulltulas... :sweat:

I've been playing Xenoblade X a lot recently. I'd been having a whole lot of fun already with the game, mostly just exploring the giant world. And then I got the flight module.

Hi. This game is the best thing ever. That is all.

In all seriousness though, it is pretty great. The mechs being breakable constantly has me on edge, but Moosh and I found a way to game the system by going on foot and having the AI operate the mechs and give defense boosts, so that the mech fights play themselves with no risk of breaking. It's a feature not a exploit, I swear! I've also gone off the deep end trying to chain together all the Frontier Nav probes in just the right way to maximize income. It's fun and horrible at the same time.
