Speaking of DQ, I recently found an almost new copy of DQ6 DS for $9 on Amazong! Got it in the mail yesterday and it's f.a.b.u.l.o.u.s

Ooo, that's tempting. I played/beat IV on the DS and own the PAL version of V for some reason. I never played 6, but it always looked interesting to me.

I'm hoping that Square's recent "realization" that there is an audience for these games in the west given the success of BD makes them rethink their DQ strategy here.

There is an audience... as long as Nintendo is the publisher, it seems [and even that didn't help Dragon Quest VI or Joker 2 :( ]

Nintendo needs to make nice with its customers, they should have an entire division dedicated to releasing niche titles. They would gain incredible brownie points from Nintendo and JRPG fans alike.

They should start by releasing SMT IV in Europe. Seriously what the fuck Nintendo (and what the fuck Atlus for not having European offices and completely ignoring an important market for jrpg...)

The SMT IV situation is deeply unfortunate. The lack of transparency about it is probably the worst part.

I'd recommend you folks import a 2DS for more cases like this if you can.

Happy birthday. Getting old isn't a bad thing at all!

Today, I ran 3.5 miles with a ruck full of 30 water bottles, no idea how much it weighed. Took first place in the competition with a lead of over six minutes ahead of the person who placed second. I felt like a badass this morning during the run, but now I'm tired as hell.

Rewarded myself by buying Toukiden for my Vita. Should be a blast!

If Nintendo implemented region lock for the first time with their handhelds to prevent piracy... Well, Vita has managed to remain piracy free as well. It'd be nice if Nintendo would get rid of it with their next handheld :( It hurts my soul that I can't play Terry's Wonderland.

It took me 41 minutes. I decided to do the math, 28 bottles at 20 ounces each is 35 pounds, so that plus whatever the ruck weighed to slow me down, plus another two bottles for actual drinking. Did it in uniform with steel toe combat boots, so I ended up with some blisters (gross). Someone took pictures while I was charging up the hill to the finish line, can't wait to see them. I was breathing heavy like a madman at that point like I was about to die.

Honestly, it was more like interval training with weight than a run. I kept alternating between a brisk jog to a brisk walk, constantly drinking water during the walking portions because it was hot as hell.

That deserves a reward and a half IMO! The last time I ran/sprinted with extra weight for training, I puked :( LOL!

Seriously. Another reason why the DS was so amazing. Though, I'm still not entirely sure how I can play my PAL version of DQV on my 3DS. Is it because the DS hardware portion still remains region free?

I really need to play through P3 and P4 before 5 comes out. Those are such time commitments though. But at least the option is now there on the PS3.

I wish they'd port Nocturne.

I can see us getting the rest of the SMT PS2 games after P4 comes out as a PS2 classic. It only makes sense.

Thanks you two, and I hope you're right about more ports. I already beat P4G, so I'm kinda meh about the Persona 4 port. Nocturne would seriously make my day.

Yup, 3DS becomes a DS when you play DS games, so it remains region free.

So I was playing Diddy Kong Racing for the first time in 10 years. I had finished all of the adventure mode and unlocked T.T.

Now midway through Adventure 2 the control stick on my controller that I bought about a week ago fucking snaps off.

And I threw away the receipt not thinking that I would need it.

Speaking of - I played P4 Arena last week and had a fucking blast. I'm usually terrible at fighting games, but something about the control scheme worked for me. I dominated between Teddie and Elizabeth. So much fun.

Man, we just watched American Hustle and The Great Gatsby. . .

What a bore... Gatsby is definitely worse. Can't believe those two even got nominated!. I suppose there were some truly bad movies in general last year. So far, Dallas Buyers Club sits on top. Will watch Osage County tomorrow.

Blinded by the luminous glory that is David Bowie's physical manifestation.
Gatsby was a pretty terrible book. So I don't know why people expect the movie to be different outside of Leo.

Haven't seen Wolf of Wallstreet, but someone I know is gushing about it.
