It's the Wii for me too. My family tended to get home consoles second hand so we never had the boxes for the old stuff but even when we did finally get a new console being the PS2, I think we just threw the box out which seems really dumb in hindsight. Same deal with the handhelds we got. I have...

I finished my friendly match earlier this morning. Rusty as hell (I think I overpredicted at least 5 times and was punished on all occasions), but thanks to a good core and a bit of luck with hitting Leech Seeds, Magma Storms and Toxic, I was able to see out the game. I haven't actually player...

I feel like Pokemon Dash deserves a mention. I've not actually played it myself, I've seen some gameplay footage of it and heard from people who have played it, and it looks like a completely hollow experience. Surprise surprise, it was made by the same people that did Hey You, Pikachu! I really...

I have a free night tonight (it's currently 7:30pm my time) where all I was planning to do was play a Zelda game or two for the 15th million time and watch some soccer, but I probably ought to brush up on my pokes. I don't think I've played any ORAS OU since ORAS actually came out, so I'll...

I picked up the Mighty Switch Forces and Shantae and the Pirates Curse for Wii U the other day as Wayforward games were on a sale. The MSF games were a couple of bucks each and Shantae was about $15. No idea why I hadn't check these out earlier as I'm a sucker for a platformer, but hey, better...

I don't know. When I was in highschool I tended to score pretty highly on standardised testing, however having been out of highschool for nearly 5 years now, I've forgotten a lot of what I used to know, especially when it comes to Maths, Sciences and History as they haven't been relevant to my...

Cool thread idea. For a Poison/Fire type, I think I have to go with it being the Napalm pokemon.

I actually don't know, funny as it sounds. I'm pretty good at 2D platformers and I've beaten difficult ones like Super Meat Boy, Cave Story and trolly freeware games like I Wanna Be The Guy/Boshy, but it's not so much that I blitz through them and find them really easy, but I beat them through...

I've thrown out practically every bit of school work I ever did because I get embarrassed about it. It might be the sort of deal I regret later in life (as I know plenty of people that literally keep everything they've ever done including my brother), but to me it's like why would I ever want to...

I grew up with Silver, so maybe I'm biased, but I prefer it's version exclusives, with Phanpy, Donphan, Skarmory and Delibird being some of my favourite 2nd gen pokemon. As for sprites, I'd say Gold probably nudges it. Mainly for it's Mewtwo sprite. That sprite is amazing. I also love Gold's...

Ghost, Fighting, Fairy and Dark are my favourite types. Not to rag on the elemental types, but they're sort of standard RPG fare, but what makes Ghost, Fighting, Fairy and Dark so cool to me is that those types convey not only what a Pokemon is, but a value system and how they conduct...

One of my favourite moments was getting to Cyllage City, seeing there was a bike shop and a gym in the City. The gap between the first and second gyms in Kalos was so huge I was beginning to think I'd made a mistake and accidentally skipped over a gym, but low and behold, when finally getting to...

I've started back at Uni again recently, so I wanted some good casual games for the train rides and was able to get Bit Trip Saga for $6.50 on the eShop and Ultimate NES Remix preowned for $23 from EB which is pretty good given the RRP over here was $50. It was a couple of weeks ago now, but I...
