I'm online now just so you know.

be right there, chatting it up with Ura in the IRC

anyone here getting luigi's mansion 2?

i hear the game has multiplayer but i have no buddies to play games normally so i just go 1 player most of the time or random online in mario kart. i do plan to play the 1 player mode first though.

As soon as I get my 3DS XL, yes.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

I shall be getting luigi's mansion 2 on tuesday, but also going to a conference from wednesday to sunday so my time and wifi usage will probably be limited next week.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

What other games do you guys have on your 3DS? I'm not sure what else now that Revelations is coming to Consoles.

 

[cjkeats]

Fire Emblem and Mario 3D land are a must. I quite like the Layton game on there too. Pushmo and Crashmo get top recommendations form the eShop as well.

I have Virtue's Last Reward because I bought the watch and it came with it lol. Already played it on Vita though.

I have Kid Icarus Uprising, Pilot Wings and Adventure Time and I don't even have the system yet.

Fire Emblem sounds like a slam dunk.

 

[Madao]

playable online? MK7, Mario Tennis and Kid Icarus

other games i have are OoT 3D, SF64 3D, SM3DLand, Paper Mario and VLR

there's plenty more digital but i'm lazy to list those.

I had to get the VLR watch separate when they sold it for charity. I played some of it on Vita as well though too. Still need to go back and play.

YES YOU DO!

Go finish now! It's amazing! It was my 2012 GOTY!

Oh, Mario Tennis, loved it on GC. How is Paper Mario in your opinion? Last good one to me was Thousand Year Door.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

My top five games for 3ds as it stands are probably :
1) Kid Icarus Uprising
2) Fire Emblem : Awakening
3) Super Mario 3D Land
4) Mario Kart 7
5) Style Savvy Trendsetters

Honorable mentions go to pushmo and crashmo .

Personally I found the 3ds layton to be my least favorite of the laytons so far .

 

[cajunator]

my coworker is so lucky.
he is playing zelda lttp for the first time followed by ocarina and majoras mask

How's Style Savvy? Is it similar to the Princess Maker games if you've played those?

 

[Dr.Palutena]

I still havent played lttp or majora's mask .

 

[cjkeats]

I'll never forget Majora's Mask the first time. That world sucked me in so hard.
Anju and Kafei was one of the first times I remember a video game making me real feel some kind of attachment to characters.

LTTP IS SO GOOD! I haven't played Majora's Mask either.

The premise of it scared me. That freaky ass moon. I like the Time Travel aspect though. I might have to finally clamp down and play it.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

There are two style savvy demos on the store you can try, but I havent played this Princess Maker . The game has more or less 2 aspects to it mainly. One part is you managing your own clothing shop, in which you have to cater to the needs of customers to make money . The other part is competing in fashion shows . There are other aspects to it, but overall it's loads of fun.

Thanks, it sounds a bit different, but shares similarities. Soon as I get my XL I'll check out the demos.

Oh, Mario Tennis, loved it on GC. How is Paper Mario in your opinion? Last good one to me was Thousand Year Door.

this new Paper Mario is polarizing. some poeple liked the changes and some hated them. the story is toned down a lot and is probably less story than what was seen in PM64. the battle mechanics are a bit weird since you need stickers to do anything and there's no experience. you can do some crazy combos with some stickers and there's also a rock-paper-scissors element with some of them.
this game isn't a traditional PM like the first 2 though, so have that in mind.

personally, i didn't like it as much as the old ones. i dunno about SPM since i only played that once but it is below the first 2 for me.

Yep, sounds like a bummer. The first two were so good. The amount of story in TYD was crazy though.

Still looking to pick up the K-ON game myself.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

Personally I like the new paper mario , but I havent played the "traditional" paper marios and thus play it without desires or expectations for it to be ttyd 2 or pm64 2 . I can fully understand the disappointment and desire for a paper mario like those ones, but I like what Sticker Star was personally.

 

[Chet Rippo]

It's time again for TheBats review of K-On! Episode 10 this time, woo woo.

It was a great episode, and even more so that we got to see Mio in a Bikini.

Spoiler

amiright, Chet ;D

This episode gets the infamous 4.5 Ricchans!

After the last time I cut Ritsu in half and almost gave Amish a heart attack, to fill in the .5, Here's a picture of the girls with cookies.

Less than 5? You're crazy!
Beyond the obvious reasons, I really liked this episode. This and the earlier beach episode just have a real laid back feel to it.

I guess because my stuff isnt colored (having a tablet is one of my goals) I feel like it is inferior.

There are more ways to color things than with computers. There's always markers, colored pencils, etc.

Okies, see ya in a few.

Wonder where Chet's at now....

Here.

What is wrong with you?

If you makes you feel better, I own both of them!

I dont like theway my art looks with traditional coloring methods.
I want shiny pretty computer coloring.

I've said a while ago, it has to be perfect for me to give it a 5! It was a great episode, but it wasn't quite perfect to me. I'm surprised I already gave out one perfect rating as it is

Well, I'm not saying you shouldn't want to get a tablet. Just giving suggestions.

You know Mio's always a 5 in my book! <3

 

[melichrous]

After more Sawa-chan hysterics in the hot tub "I can't see you, but I bet I can tell you apart by cup size" Gets her bonked by Mio I assume. lol.

If my memory is functioning correctly, that went down a little... differently... in the manga

Oooh. Time to track down the Manga then. haha.

Alright folks, nap time. See you later today.

 

[RurouniZel]

my art feels so woefully inadequate.

You shouldn't. I went to art school and you did not. I bought and have been using special equipment for years and you don't/haven't. You have strengths I do not have, like being able to draw cars and other mechanical objects well (which I completely suck at), you've got a much greater attention to clothing detail like frills and lace than I do.

Also, your poses are more creative than mine. ^^;

It's an investment to be sure, both money and time. I found it to be worth it because I have my love/hate relationship with art. ^^;

Maybe you should finish it...

 

[RurouniZel]

Don't remind me... >>; It's on the backlog now 'cause I need to platinum Atelier Ayesha and get started on MonHun and paint and why aren't there more hours in the day??

 

[Chet Rippo]

Mugi's back, yay! Another vacation for her. lol. We're treated to another Vacation home of hers which is STILL not the original awesome one she wanted to get for last year's vacation. I do wonder if we'll ever see the one she's mentioning. So they arrive, and Ricchan and Yui bond so much during these, they already have their Bikinis on.

It actually does get shown.

Spoiler

Azusa gets to stay at it with Ui, Jun and the other new girls in manga that happens after the anime

You know Mio's always a 5 in my book! <3

On a scale from 1 to 10, Mio's an 11.

Maybe you should finish it...

That reminds me, the Bride DLC is out now.

You have a point. I have no art training. Everything I know I pretty much learned along the way. I had to teach myself perspectives and scaling and foreshortening, all the little things, by observing other art and real life and seeing how it works. So it stands to reason that I am probably missing things you guys were taught how to do or have more practice with...
But I'm still feeling inadequate.

Depends on the work place, but it's fine for here.

Even if it's way out of season.

Yeah, there's still quite a bit of snow out yet. Though it's said that the temperature is going to get up to the 40s by the end of next week, so it might actually start feeling like spring.
