I enjoy hearing all your stories. Thanks for sharing. <3

Honestly when Japanese people tell you this they're -trying- to be nice, not condescending. I feel like that kind of indignant reaction is the result of a fundamental misunderstanding of culture differences, or at least an inability to see things from a less subjective perspective...

I think it was this one. Though I had a Zelda one I liked a lot too.

Nintendo 365 Anniversaries

Wave Race: Blue Storm Anniversary

About to become my favorite feature of the app.

Hell ya Toni too?!

Dude if you’re gonna be around Yokohama or Tokyo hit me up! ^_^

this survey took less than two minutes

The boss fights in these games is 神経衰弱. Arino-san played a couple on Game Center CX.

You're looking good buddy, haven't aged at all in 10 years.

They should. I know they had it when I went a couple months ago.

Thank you for sharing all these, it's really cool.

Decided to play the demo for that new Shinobi game based on what I'd heard from podcasts, and ya, that's some good shit. Hope I can 100% DK before that comes out.

Did my part and beat SMB today as I do every year. Congrats on another year to y’all! (Even if it’s not necessarily the official anniversary date.)

Now more than ever I’m shocked and pleased that they still have that there.

Na I got one the states and had my mom bring it to me. How’s your luck?

They added one of the things I really wanted to the Switch 2- ability to connect to Bluetooth headphones through the quick menu! (Hold home button to bring up.)

In Henk Rodger’s new book he mentioned that he and his team made that controller- I had no idea until now.

Our friends carry over to SW2, right? (Don’t have one yet)

I could a sworn the announced that it only goes above 60 in handheld. (Sorry if you knew this and I just didn’t get the joke.)

Aw man apparently they patched BLSS out of BotW. That was a great, easy way to travel super fast in the game. Now I’m gonna have to get good at the Bokoblin shield bounce again.

OMG I had this on C64.

Quote by Akira "Akiman" Yasuda, head of Capcom illustration. "Okamoto was so angry with the game that the CEO of Incredible Technologies tried to patch things up by inviting us over to her home. The house was humongous — it had a basement area, a huge 200-inch projection screen TV, a game room ... it was an impressively luxurious house. Seeing that house actually made my heart sink further, just with how big it was, and how little money I had myself. I mean, we'd created this huge hit with Street Fighter 2, but I didn't get rich off of it. It wasn't until much later, long after the development of Street Fighter 2, that we actually started to see some money come in. It wasn't until it looked like we all might quit, and then Capcom brought in a consulting group and we were finally given raises. But before that, we didn't see a lot of money from the games we made."

This sobering quote from Akiman about the time some of the street fighter team visited the home of the president of Incredible Technologies, the subcontracted US studio that made the Street Fighter: The Movie game

I was foiled once again. Continue to be the only gaijin on BS who can’t seem to get one on launch day in Japan. ;-;

Dino Crisis Rules

Sooo jelly. Think I’m the only gaijin in Japan that didn’t win the lottery for the multi language one. Hope I can win on the second lottery! ^_^;

Ya I spent waaaay too much money there as well. And will probably do it again cause I want all the coffee mugs.

Good luck man, hope that worked for ya!

International - got multiple Nintendo accounts with games so I ain’t goin with region locking. ^_~

Glad I’m not alone at least. ^_^
