Last One to Post Wins! v4

Ah the Addams Family.... haven't seen it since I was a teenager I think?
 
I remember getting a used VHS that I thought was two movies on one, one of which called The Day Of The Triffids that I had wanted to see. Took it out of the movie box and it was actually The Addams Family Values or that other one where Uncle Fester had lost his memory. I've seen both movies and they're both great, although I like Values better.
 
Cosmega, my dear feathered fella, you're missing out on some top-tier spooky brilliance.

The Addams Family isn't just "kinda weird," it's a masterclass in embracing the wonderfully bizarre. Morticia and Gomez are the ultimate relationship goals, Wednesday is the queen of savage one-liners, and Thing (the "funny hand guy") has more personality than most people. "Addams Family Values" especially? Absolute gold.

Watch it—you'll thank me when you're snapping along with the theme song like a true fan. Dudududun~ snap snap!

I enjoy me a good emu every now and again. Not one to use them too often, but for specific circumstances they're awesome.

DID SOMEONE SAY EMUUUUU

and i've seen the adams family! the old one anyway! it was pretty goofy lol
 
I've never really been into The Adams Family, but I have seen parts of the old show cause my mom liked it and wanted to show me.

If we're also talking about DVD players and such, most of my movies are on, well, DVD lol. Though I do have some older VHSs that I rarely watch on my combo player. Most of the time I watch stuff like movies these days though it's on my laptop, and I'm usually watching them with others lol. :p (and thanks yet again to PK for helping me out with fixing that playback stutter issue that I was having for a couple of years lol :love: )

I liked in Brilliant Diamond that you just needed to have seen every Pokémon in the Pokédex (or a picture of them) to access the rest of the Battle Zone- if you'd battled all the trainers that had shown up in the game up to that point, you'd likely have completed that.

As usual, Gen 4 (I get it, BDSP is technically a Gen 8 game, but also not really) is still the best generation (especially with the Gen 2 remake)

I agree with Megan, Alex and Lav that NSO should be free, it's one thing if they charge for the retro games; but there's no good reason Switch online should cost money when 3DS / Wii U online was free, and NSO is roughly the same quality those were.

Wait till you find out that backing up your saves requires NSO.

I read "VHS" and immediately remember the times when I regularly recorded TV shows to watch them later. That was in the 00s when everyone else had already moved on to DVD. ^^"

We really went from cassettes to play music, vhs to watch videos, to DVDs and now blurays, for companies like Disney and others to stop 4K releases

one less thing to need to be plugged into the wall and even my tv with only two hdmi ports

"Excuse my French" but what a shitshow Microsoft pulled during series x and series s. Sony with their PSP lineup (and idiotically abandoning their UMD disk during the Vita) (incase you need a refresher):
PSP-1000 "Phat/Fat" (2004-2007)
PSP-2000 "Slim" (2007-2008)
PSP-3000 "Slim & Lite" or "Brite" (2008-2014)
PSP-N1000 "Go" (2009-2011) NO UMD Slot
PSP-E1000 "Street" (2011-2014)


Nintendo was bad enough with their Wii U (no hate, just poorly marketed) and their DS line (in case you need a refresher)
Nintendo DS (2004-2009)
Nintendo DS Lite (2006-2014)
Nintendo DSi (2008-2014)
Nintendo DSi XL (2009-2014)
Nintendo 3DS (2011-2021)
Nintendo 3DS XL (2012–2021)
Nintendo 2DS (2013-2021)
New Nintendo 3DS (2014-2021)
New Nintendo 3DS XL (2014-2020)
New Nintendo 2DS XL (2017-2020)

The average person is not that smart, and not that rich. Games are not essential, so while console refreshers and warranted, stop the distribution of cheaper devices with confusing labels. I've seen Linus from LTT talk about this from the computer hardware side when it comes to "entry level" devices that have low quality specs. So I don't blame PoryKid575

I've flipped on emulators recently, I used to not like them much; but the convenience of my PC essentially being the ultimate game station has gotten a lot more appealing to me after having had consoles break and games get lost. It's also a huge money saver. tbh the only reason I still have game consoles is because my laptop is ancient and can't emulate anything past ~PS1 to an acceptable quality.

I like BDSP but it did remind me of how awful Pokemon variety in Sinnoh is. The Underground did luckily break it up a bit, but that's not gonna help seeing the same Pokemon over and over and over during the main routes :sadwick:

If you ask me Gen 6-8 are were Pokemon was at it's best.
 
We don't have anything that plays Blu-Ray, so all of our videos are VHS or DVD. Back when I had a Playstation 3 it could play Blu-Ray, although the only Blu-Ray I ever watched on it was the Spider-Man 3 movie that came with it free when I bought it.

Looking at Blu-Ray movies on Amazon and advertisements for it, I find it completely ridiculous that they'll have a Blu-Ray versions of a movie that comes with a DVD version that you can play on your computer (or DVD player, I'm assuming) but not have the movie available to buy just as a regular DVD. If they're going to go to the trouble of including a DVD version of the movie with the Blu-Ray, surely they should be able to release just regular DVDs of it.

On a completely different subject, yesterday in Star Wars: The Old Republic I got in the worst operations group I've ever been in. The healer wouldn't heal this one player for some reason, and also wasn't doing that well of a job healing the rest of us. People were arguing and sniping (verbally) at each other, and eventually several group members- including the group leader- left the group, which I did shortly after. I'm not sure how many times my character died during that operation, but it was several. Ach...

Yep, playing online can be incredibly frustrating, especially if you have bad teammates that don't know how to play.

- Cosmega, a bad teammate that doesn't know how to play.
