Call me Legion, for I am many. ****** I am playing next week, but I won't be on till 11+/-...actually, anywhere between 10:30 and 11. My school plays a game that starts at 7... and normally games go about 3.5 hours. I'd play portable that final 30...but I'd be too invested in the outcome to play portable respecitably.

GGs. I think if we did a private room, we'd need at least 4 to make it worth it, but the battle royale mode, where we might run into each other but are talking on discord could work to some degree.

If you want to go at 9.... give it more time... fine by me.

I could be up to give this a go tonight.... but I got dip at 11p.

Cool explainer...

Right now, after going back through some Mandalorian episodes... The two MOST INTERESTING story arcs now sit at Morgan and the two rouge Jedi. Motives.... end games... But what bugs me is

Ahsoka episode 6 ....yeah.... Thrawn still a badass... interesting story tidbits to be had....

Basically, the video version of AB's post ****************** On that note.... some thoughts so far.... #1 Not sure how surprised I am about the voting on stages at just 2, but I wonder what determines which two you get to vote on. *I've done Mute City I, Sand Ocean I, White Land I **I have seen Death Wind and Port Town I(?) appear ***What are the available stages so far? #2 I don't mind them going with the SNES style graphics and they nailed it, but... *More cars versus just the original 4 + the AI bot cars? I don't see why they didn't dig into X/GX/MV/... to do some SNES models of the other racers. *I've gotten a few paint jobs unlocked and they do look sweet. I have also ran into some sweet ones online. *I really need to play this on my 46" instead of portable LOL. #3 The d-pad is the obvious choice for playing, which surprises me to some degree. #4 I swear I think the border damage and car damage is different than the original, and the health/boost zones feel like you go through them faster than in the SNES version. #5 Not sure how I feel about the trickling boost sparks and having to go for those as well as race, and IMO, for a game rewarding you for spin attacks, the spin attack meter seems to take to long to fill up to consistently use it like its intended.

Put some time in today finally, and now can online races. Got a ? I've played handheld and I had to switch from steering with analog stick to dpad almost immediately to be successful. Anyone had same feeling? Different opinion if you used a pro controller?

I won't be on next week, game is @6p...doubt I get home till 11 or so.

...yeah... not really mad...watched some football, packed, went to bed early...

@TKrazyO If we want to do some Bman tonight.... I can be on from 8:30+/- to 11. I'm not driving tomorrow, I'm a passenger LOL. But I do want to catch some Zs in case I can't on the ride up.

Ok...I booted it up a few minutes ago just to work with it a little. But I want yo get to FZ99 asap.

No wonder why Mario is all about that bread...

I mean, yay? Why not do a MK8DLX COMPLETE EDITION? Granted with the MK8 Holiday bundle coming, this might be a better way to do the add on if someone passes on NSO, but you don't get online if you don't get NSO to race so... Also sets up for a weird deal with Expansion Pack sales IMO.

Questions: Is the DK vs. Mario THE DK94 game? OR is it a new game in that style? SMRPG, are they doing something with the dead zones of the original's graphics? From the trailer cuts I can't tell. Real talk, how does OG Tomb Raider play? This series has intrigued me. I could be into starting from scratch. I did like all 3 movies LOL. *************** Ok, I watched that trailer for the new Princess Peach game.... and is it me, or does it feel like a Luigi's Mansion 3 deal in a different building and instead of the poltergust upgrades, you get Peach costumes? I am digging it though...

@TKrazyO I should get it today. If you want we could try it out prior to mk8 tonight or Friday. With Friday, I can go to 11p.

For FZ99 releasing today, a blue falcon theme? Optional if you rock the captain falcon suit.

Ooof or ohhh? Ooof sounds like bad news ;_;
