I was going to start writing mine tonight but I forgot my Cubase dongle at home Please bear with me

This is a cool idea, what songs will be on it?

I missed most of the thinger, glad you guys leave it online so people can catch up later. I tuned in on my phone, but apparently it wasn't playing it live? Then I accidentally hit the back button, and when I went back to it, it was playing from the beginning again (this was at like 9:20pm EDT) So bleh... it stinks that it doesn't work right on phones. But it's good that I can catch up with it later.

I don't know anything about buying a CPU or Mobo, that's why I came here! I know that my 670 is bottlenecked, and an upgrade is needed. I'll probably have to replace the RAM too like Kyle said. I've got a little money saved up but probably not enough. I got scheduled less days this month too, and counting in MAGFest, I don't have quite as much available as I have saved.... some of it already is allocated to things like MAGFest. I'll post my PC's stats when I get home if I remember, working until 2:30pm est.

I believe it has a little of the expanded soundtrack in it And I really need to get this done. I'm hoping October will be a magic month.

I know someone who made a big booboo with the thermal paste, and I don't wanna have to do anything like that. I do need to get a new mobo and CPU, maybe something compatible with my current RAM... or I'd have to upgrade the RAM too... gets expensive.

I don't wanna go overboard and squee but ermagherd I love the 3DS XL so much. I've only played 2 of my 6 games, mostly Animal Crossing: New Leaf, and I am completely happy with it. The 3D blows my mind, the interface is nice and quick and un-WiiU-like despite looking similar. Super Mario 3D Land is great too. To top it all off, the library of games available for it is incredible (IF you like RPGs)... I've got FF3, Dragon Quest IX, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, and there's a ton more when I finish those. They even got the Chronic Triggah. So there's my endorsement, I like the thinger. And I'm super excited for Pokemon X.

I'm wondering, can you get a good deal on a tower that has the mobo and CPU already in it? I see deals like this for $109 and I really need an upgrade (currently sitting at 2.5ghz bottlenecked) But I know nothing about putting a CPU on a mobo or replacing any of that stuff, so I wouldn't want to risk damaging anything. All the other parts of my computer have been replaced, so I basically already have a custom thing but with the original mobo/CPU. I put in a 750W power supply, the GTX670, firewire card... I guess that's all there really is to it... Can probably swap out the DVD drive in this if I need to... so just wondering, what are my options?

SAME, man! Everything you said, I say too.

Yes, that is true. So anyway, who has started playing that Wind Waker HD? What are your thoughts?

Does anyone really care about opinions that don't match their own? Seems like internet tradition. Anyway, I thought I was gonna be downloading Wind Waker HD but it's already downloaded! I'm actually excited to play this for the first time ever, should be good. I've heard a lot of good things. When it came out it was a lot of bad, but I guess time changes all.

Huddahh??? BUMP!!! If you haven't finished your entry yet, NO WORRIES. You've still got a lot of time left. Check the details in the previous post. I'm just finishing up my entry. Is it going to win? No. Is it going to be top 5? Probably not. But I enjoyed the heck out of making it and you should enjoy making yours too! That's all that matters, so hop on board!

Onoeee... there's a slot for that? Can I enter it with you? Together! We can be slot brothers!

It's not 'entirely new' like he said

Or maybe I spelled it that way because I knew you would argue it because that's what you do. Switching semantics with semitics is a running gag of mine.

He knows what it means, maybe you need a refresher. Super Mario 3D World might be innovative, but I find it hard to believe it will be more innovative than the original 3D Land, since 3D Land is actually in 3D on the 3DS. As for whether it is 'new', well it is a derivative of Super Mario 3D Land, so it's not quite new. Maybe you could say it is "fresh". Either way, it should be good, and pointing out & arguing over semitics is silly.

It won't be, but you'll have me

Dude do you think I'm rich or something? Cause I'm really not. I'm just good at budgeting my money. I make minimum wage.

People who are a "new game player buyer" who don't know about the consoles... is that really such a big demographic? It's usually... moms who for whatever reason don't ask their kids what they want for Christmas and end up getting the wrong thing....

I don't think a $100 difference is that big of a deal. I don't think that's why PS4 outsold Xbone presales, if Xbone had been the better overall presentation / console it could have easily been on top. So I don't think being $100 cheaper is going to be what helps WiiU sales... I think the new Zelda (not the remake) will be one of the first steps on the path... or Smash Bros, whichever comes first.

I've looked at all of these, and you know what, I haven't played Pokemon RPGs so I probably won't even see any of those except for now. That's sad, isn't it? I'll probably just go through the game with a team of Pikachus.

I think Wii U is already well into its flop period, and is now in the recovery phase. I don't know if Wind Waker HD or Super Mario 3D World will be enough to pick up sales but it's a good start. Nintendo needs to really buckle down and start producing higher quality, faster, and with much more diversity, to make up for the lack of 3rd party development. I remember when the gamepad was being shown off by Nintendo as a way to play FPS games and that they were going to have hardcore games and such. Not saying Nintendo needs to make hardcore games, but a new IP, maybe focused at teens, would not be unwelcome.
