    Does Anybody Here Play Touhou?

    Huh. I was going to wait to see if anyone else would reply, guess I'll just go ahead. Yes, I play Touhou, not as much as I used to, but I'll still play it occasionally. I've played all of the game including the PC98 ones and beaten about 3 of them on Lunatic. While I don't have a favourite out...

    Who Knows Japanese?

    I'm actually studying Japanese. Or, well, was. My problem is that I'm hopelessly lazy and when I was actually studying, it was kind of... All over the place. I know Katakana, Hiragana, quite a few kanji, along with a few random words. On top of that, I know a small amount of the grammar, but I...

    Tornadoes

    You know, I always thought I know most of the stuff relating to tornadoes I'd ever need to know, but I never knew about "Dixie Alley" until this topic came around, which answers why we seem to get so many tornadoes around here without actually being in Tornado Alley. Along with that, although I...

    So What's Your Plan in the Event of a Zombie Attack?

    Well it's fairly simple. I'd load up the guns I have, kill all the zombies nearby (probably no more than 20 in all), then walk back in. I live in a rather secluded area without many people around, so unless an army comes marching because they somehow know there's people here, I wouldn't have to...

    Story or Gameplay?

    I prefer gameplay over story. Mainly because they're games, not books, not movies, games. What makes games different from books and movies? Gameplay. Don't get me wrong, a good story in a game isn't unwelcome, but unless it has gameplay that's fun, I'll probably wind up stopping before I'm done...

    Which Pokémon Did You Choose in Black/White?

    I chose Oshawott. For a few reasons, but mainly because I like otters. I also enjoy samurai, so combining the two was an automatic win for me. Although, watching the anime just made me like it even more than I did at first, pretty much confirming it as the one I'd pick. (Also, Samurott has...

    Who Are Your 5 Favorite Video Game Characters?

    In no particular order and narrowing it down to 5... Yuri Lowell (Tales of Vesperia): I really like him because he's a lot different than any of the other "Tales of" protagonists. He's a lot more laid back than most of the characters while also having his own sense of "justice", to the point...

    Graphics

    I believe graphics do matter, but shouldn't be what people judge a game by. However, when I say they matter, I mean the style, not if they've got thousands of polygons and overly HD textures. The style of the graphics matter just as much as the music of a game does, it helps set the mood and...

    Most Notstalgic Video Games.

    I'd have to say that pretty much any game on the 64 would count for me. Notable ones include Mario 64, OoT, MM, Super Smash Bros., and Starfox 64. The SNES has a few, though, like Super Metroid, Kirby Super Star, Kirby's Dreamland 3, and even Final Fantasy 4 and 6. The gameboy also includes...

    Playing As the Opposite Gender in Video Games

    I see no problem with it at all. Then again, I'm a guy who rarely plays as anything but females, sometimes because they wind up getting the best looking outfits, other times because I prefer the female character over the male, and other times just because I have the option for it. But mostly...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced at VGA - Really, Really Seriousness

    Being the fanboy of the series that I am, it's hard for me to describe my feeling without using very unhuman sound effects of joy. Although, I'm interested in the fact that a dragon was shown, even if it was just made of stone, since they're considered extinct in lore. Along with that, the...

    Best Mario Party Game

    It's probably a tie out of 2 and 3. I love 1, but it caused my fingers and controllers quite a bit of pain back in the day. 2 was probably the one I have the most memories from, while 3 has some of my favourite minigames out of all of them. Of course, I've only played the first four games, so I...

    The Toughest Zelda Dungeon

    I'd have to go with Ganon's Tower from the original LoZ. I don't think I've ever had that much trouble with a dungeon before, to the point that I literally looked up a map of it, planned out the path I'd take, memorized it, then practiced going through it as fast as possible while taking as...

    Minecraft

    Minecraft, Minecraft. Such a game, growing in popularity everyday, I seem to see it on nearly every site I go to now. Only to realize that when I try to play it, it gives a black screen that doesn't show any error in the java console. Not to mention the forums seem to have no fix at all for it...

    Do You Plan on Buying Kirby's Epic Yarn?

    Woah, woah, woah. I didn't realize it was so close to coming out. Since I'm broke, I'm going to have to work out some deal with my mom so I can get it. So to answer the question: Yes, I plan on getting it once I get the money or means to get it. I usually try to get Kirby games as soon as I can...

    Should Nintendo Make a Darker Kirby Game?

    I actually was unable to come up with an appropriate start to what I'm going to say because the thought of a "darker" Kirby game just sort of throws me for a loop.(Not meant as an insult or anything, just... Kirby.) However, that aside, the only time I would ever agree with it is if they did...

    Latest Video Game Purchase

    My most recent would be Star Ocean 3, Ace Combat 4, Ys 7, Phantasy Star Portable 2, Etrian Odyssey 3, Final Fantasy XIII, .Hack//Infection, and Atelier Rorona. Wow, I didn't realize I got that many in the past few weeks, I think I'm going to be overloaded with games for awhile.

    Your Favorite Pokémon?

    This is tough... Normally it's Umbreon or Scizor, but after seeing all the Gen V Pokemon, I've grown really fond of Mijumaru, Aakeosu, Victini, and Erufuun, making my ability to narrow it down even harder. So really, any of those could be considered one of my favourites, since I'm not going to...

    Ocarina of Time Biggoron Sword

    I actually don't particularly care for the Biggoron's Sword. Although, I do love that there's another weapon other than the Master Sword, meaning you actually have an option, even if you choose not to use it. I prefer the Master Sword though, but not because it allows you to use the shield...

    Ocarina of Time Coolest Temple Soundtrack

    I actually like all of the dungeon music within the game. However, if I had to choose, it'd probably be between the Spirit and Forest temple's music. The Spirit Temple gives a nice, fitting sound that makes you feel like you're actually in something that's located in a desert. It also just...

    Favorite Handheld Zelda Game?

    Well, I'll have to go with Oracle of Ages. It was challenging, but not too over-the-top, I enjoyed the time traveling part and I love how all the bosses were pretty much puzzles themselves. The characters weren't bad, and I just had an overall feeling of accomplishment every time I beat a...

    How Important is Backwards Compatibility to You?

    It's rather important to me. I hate buying a new system and learning older games won't work on it, especially if I like the game and don't want to sell it. I really see no point why they can't just make them all backwards compatible, then when the older systems kick the bucket, you don't have to...

    Metroid: Other M

    I'm not exactly excited for it, but I am looking forward to it. The reason I'm not excited is because a lot of the previews that I've seen is nothing but a bunch of story and cut scenes. Don't get me wrong, a story is nice and welcome, I just hope they don't throw in a cut scene every 5 minutes...

    Was Vaati Hard?

    The first time I fought him, I didn't know what to expect, so I experimented around and wound up dying. Once I died, though, I knew what I had to do and went back, then beat him. As long as you know how to damage him, he's really not that hard at all. If you don't, however, it's a bit different...

    Have You Gotten a Friend to Play Zelda?

    The only time I ever got one to play one of the games was when they already liked the series anyway. Everyone else either wasn't interested or didn't like it. Of course, this topic has already mentioned how most people were about it anyway. But now I usually just don't bother bringing it up...

    Majora's Mask Playing With The Happy Mask Children

    Well, I had a bit of trouble with the Goron area, but I never got stuck on it and I just kept trying until I got the Peice of Heart then finished it. The rest of it, however, was a breeze. However, I think my main trouble with the Goron part was accidentally letting go of A or hitting a ramp...

    Zelda Dungeon Pokemon Sprite Competition #2

    Your Favorite Zelda Game

    I can't really choose my top favourite, but my favourite 3 consist of Majora's Mask, Link's Awakening, and the Oracle games. I'll start with Majora's Mask. Majora's Mask actually has a rather dark storyline without looking like there's a cloud covering the sun during the day, which is a plus...

    What Are You Looking Forward To The Most From Skyward Sword?

    I'm actually looking forward to the world. Both Hyrule and Skyloft, mainly because I really love how everything in the game looks so far. You could say that's the same as just wanting it for the graphics, but it's Zelda, I'm going to enjoy it regardless of that. Other than that, though, I really...

    Ocarina of Time "Annoying" Navi?

    Honestly, Navi isn't as annoying as people say, but she still annoys me a bit. It's not that she says "HEY!

    Do Zelda Games Ever Get Old for You?

    They never really get old to me. I mean, if I play them for a really long time I'll eventually get tired of them for about a month or two, but after that I'm refreshed and ready for more. It probably helps that I play a lot of different games in between, meaning it'd take a little more to...

    Majora's Mask GYORG? What Did You Think?

    I seem to have a different experience each time I fight him. The first time was a nightmare, the next times ranged between easy, hard, and just frustrating. Now, though, he isn't all that hard. Then again, I seem to be so erratic on most games I play that hardly any boss is the same difficulty...

    Pokemon Black and White

    Favorite Video Game Music

    Pokemon Black and White

    Y'know, I actually really like the new legendaries. Although at first, I thought Zekrom looked a lot like a black, weird version of Palkia. But it grew on me a few minutes after thinking that. In fact, I think they both look better than Dialga and Palkia, honestly, which I'm a bit happy about...

    DS OoS/A?

    Technically the SP and original DS use the same charger, so if you have an original one, you could try that. However, if you have a Lite (Unsure about the DSi and XL.) you could probably find an original DS charging cord in a store still, probably less than 5 bucks, but don't quote me on that...

    A Pokemon EV Training Tool.

    Video Game Prices Really Bother Me

    I've always wondered why prices were higher in Canada and Australia, especially Australia. I just passed it up as the fact that it goes to the US and Europe first, then got shipped to the others.

    Which Pokemon Do You Always Have In Your Party?

    Which is Harder, Metroid or Zelda?

    Well, thinking it over, I find neither too hard, with 2 exceptions. AoL and Zero Mission on Hard Mode.

    Honestly, as long as you don't give the Pokemon more EVs than the max and keep it within a normal, legit-ly trained area, it should be alright.
