If you have never watched it, watch the show "The Good Place". Don't Google anything beforehand, as there's lots of twists and turns that will be spoiled. But, it's an amazing show and they directly tackle this exact thing in season 4 and it is amazing.

The printed final front and back card designs for Dizzy Sheep Disaster: EX. There are some slight alignment issues that Sarah is still working out on the righthand side of the cards

Dizzy Sheep Disaster: EX is coming along! I think Iโ€™ve found a reasonable way to print the final cards! Just some minor alignment issues to solve now.

If all goes well expect to see these at an upcoming retro gaming con!

Okay, now I'm very excited! I'll be there with @stopskeletons.bsky.social and @zarithya.online - but I'll likely be tied to the Faceball 2000 16-player crazy, but everyone please come by and say hi!

Yes! Streetpass is alive and well at MGC!

You wouldn't be doing anything "illegal" they could complain about and it'd be helluva cool.

Heck! Record them live while on Discord or such! Patreon members could watch "with" you, ask questions in the chat that you can ignore because we're crazy, then make the recordings downloadable later.

Yes! Myself, @zarithya.online and @stopskeletons.bsky.social will be there again this year! Ima DM you too!

Dude.

Sell commentary tracks via your Patreon. Sure, they'll be pirated in less than a day, but many of us would pay for them! Maybe get some other team members on a voice chat call and record it. I would *love* to hear some of your behind the scenes thoughts on the development of the show.

I would kill my own mother with a broken lawnchair to get both of these at Midwest Gaming Classic in April! I know the guy who runs it! DM me for info!

YES! I'll be there showing off 16 player Faceball 2000 again! Please come say hi! :)

I've honestly wondered if that's what someone's doing. I can't think of any good reason for the administration to reference freaking Wii Sports unless they're trying to poke Nintendo. ๐Ÿคฃ

I can't speak for Jeremy, but I'd be honored if someone at your level toom the time to correct me on something I got wrong!

I know nothing about professional printing. If someone has both a color and a B&W-only printer (do they still make such a thing on the pro level?) would be able to do this in two passes - once through the color printer with only the image, then again through the B&W printer with only the dot codes?

Here is a little demo and some explanation/pondering on what happened with Pixel Pup on the e-reader.

Order some Clay and try making something!

The nice thing is, with Voyager's big red reset button, he didn't have to live with it at all! ๐Ÿคฃ

I used to lie on my back and just let it sit on my face. Take that as you wish.

"Let" you in? what happened to investigative reporting?

As many people need replacement VB stands, it'd be neat if Nintendo would manufacture extras and sell them separately.

Actually it should just be removed from TCRF straight up, it's not an unused card effect.

Thank you very much. The post has been deleted. I really appreciate your research. This information should probably also be added to TCRF for future reference.

It's not a very known fact but Super Mario Advance 4 does have a menu that you can freely access with Select where you can save your playthrough of a level, whether in the SMB3 levels or World-e.

Okay, so here's the challenge - beat a level as Mario, but in such a way that Luigi wins in the replay.

08.02.2026 18:10 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Enabled simply by replaying a replay of a level with Luigi. Simply through normal means, no hacks. It was never intended to be used as a card effect, it just happens to share the same space as the rest of actual card effects.
