  • Ok, so, if everyone thought my misfortune with getting the Spyro PS1 game working was humorous (I'll be honest-I think it is, as disappointing as it was; I'm perfectly fine with laughing at my own misfortune), in addition, when I got my used-but-in-good-condition Spyro Attack of the Rhynocs Game Boy Advance game for Christmas, for some reason, at first, it didn't even work. Like, it didn't make any sense. Every time I put it in the slot, my Game Boy Advance NES Edition handheld wouldn't recognize it, then after I put it in a little more firmly it worked, and after that, even if I put it in with the same amount of force as I did when it didn't work, suddenly it always works now. It's so bizarre. And even more weird than that, like, on the very top of the cartridge, I don't know what it is, but it looks to me like it's got same paint on it or something-there's this substance on the top of the cartridge, and it's pink. I don't get it LOL....like, before I owned it, like, was it owned by some little kid and they were, like, making crafts, and having it sit on a table next to whatever they were making and they accidentally painted a bit on it? I seriously don't know, but it's really odd. I mean it might not even be paint; it might be marker. I don't know, but it's really weird, just like how it originally didn't work, and now it's suddenly working fine every time.
    Merry Christmas everyone, if you celebrate that sort of thing. Also I just got done watching "Red One" on Amazon. It was really good. I can see why it's so popular. 🎄🎅🤶
    Ok, so I got Spyro The Dragon and Spyro Ripto's Rage and Spyro Year Of The Dragon for the PS1 as some of my Christmas presents JUST TODAY. I have a memory card in my PS2 that has all my save data from my other PS2 games. The system recognizes it. Then I go into Spyro The Dragon for PS1 and it doesn't recognize a memory card is even in there. Then I look up the problem I am having with my new Christmas present trying to figure out what the heck is going on, and turns out I need a PS1 memory card. I order it. It won't be here until Saturday. 😒 🤦‍♂️

    This just really freakin' sucks LOL. In other news though I ate a ton of Christmas cookies today. 🍪
    You know I'm really getting a bit tired of people talking and debating back and forth about and arguing with each other over politics on here, even though it doesn't happen that often. Like when I get on here I expect to (and want to) get away from all that, but apparently I can't. Personally I'm really sick and tired of and just hate politics in general-how it divides people, how people get heated up and angry at each other over it-I'm sick of all the drama, and, on a fun site like this, there's really no need for it. Not here, that is. Like talking about this stuff everywhere else on the net and social media and all that-that's fine, but I'd rather not do it here. I'd like to get away from all that. Politics is important, yes, but I'd rather just relax and have a good time on here and not discuss that stuff. I'd like for everyone on here to just be nice and get along with each other, ok?

    Well, like I said before if anyone on here argues about or discusses politics with another on here, I of course will not join in. I mean I can't control other people (and I shouldn't; everyone should be free to do what they themselves want). So I should just do what I've done all along and just stay away from conversations in public view on here that sway into political territory. Like I said, I also will not discuss or give out any of my religious/non-religious or political views on here either. I prefer to keep all that private.

    No one really argues about politics on here from what I've seen. People do vent a lot though, and while I do think it's important to have a safe space to share things and the Board is a great place for that too many people doing it creates a very negative atmosphere unfortunately

    @Sprig I don't think "venting" is good for anyone, to be honest. It just spreads negativity and gets everyone really upset; that's all my opinion of course.
    LOL the situation for Bubsy haters like me has just gotten so much worse with THIS. Like if anyone on here is a Bubsy fan, not putting you down for that. I won't judge you for that either. It's just what you like. This is just MY personal reaction because I personally don't like him. AAAAAAAAAGH!!!! 😫


    It's available for PC too. It's real all right. Oh, boy........

    @Meta Knight Believe it or not-and I was shocked to discover this myself-Bubsy is EXTREMELY hated, but he does have at least SOME fans. I know this because I discovered, just randomly browsing through Steam, a fangroup for him-and it had either hundreds or thousands of members. Also one time when I used my browser to look up funny "hate art" of him, I in addition to that also found hundreds of pieces of fan art fans had drawn of him. So he does have some fans-some. I am NOT freaking making this up LOL. So yeah-he does have some fans. I personally myself find that incredibly cringy (and you probably do too), but there you go. Not that I really care though, because I personally really hate him. Heck, just earlier today, I made a funny GMod ragdoll screenshot scene where Mario was mercilessly beating him up, while Spyro from Spyro Reignited watched the whole thing, laughing the entire time. That should give you an idea of how much I hate Bubsy LOL. Bubsy had been dead and buried for a really long time before Billionsoft, in what I personally think was a moment of VERY bad judgment, decided to buy the rights to his franchise and excavate his coffin from his grave and bring him and his franchise back to life, to the frustration of almost everyone. Instead, he probably should have just stayed buried LOL. Like-what were they thinking. 🤦‍♂️

    I do really wonder if how hated the Bubsy games were, especially Bubsy 3D, is the main reason why Accolade (the original company, not the brand name that Atari and Billionsoft just revived) went out of business. It may well be mainly because of Bubsy LOL. As for why Atari and Billionsoft decided to bring this character and his awful franchise back, we may never know. They should have just left it alone. But for Bubsy fans, this probably will bring a lot of happiness so I guess it's ok-sort of. Still wish the brand had stayed dead though personally. I wonder how well or how badly the Bubsy "Purr-fect Collection" coming out next year is going to sell. They've according to the description in the Steam Store helped to smooth out some of the issues in the first three games of the series so maybe they're not as awful now. Still will stay away from them personally though. And I will NEVER become a fan of his.
    Hey everyone! I remember how everyone said that they hoped Mario Movie 2 would be good since it seemed like they were rushing production by not waiting three years, but I just found out that it is due to release in 2026, so that means they'll have plenty of time to perfect it and make it really good. I hope that alleviated everyone's fears. It'll be a three year wait (by the year after next year). Makes since. That's about how long animated movies usually take to make. Also, even if it's not as good as the first one, I'll probably enjoy it just because it has to do with Mario which is a franchise I like, but for the sake of all the rest of you fans I hope it's just as good as the first one-or better.
    Ok so for breakfast today, I heard about the Indiana Jones-themed XBox gamer breakfast menu items at IHop so for breakfast today I had the "Berry'd Treasure" French toast thing. Oh my God it was SO good! I can't decide which part of it was better-the berry sauce, or the icing. But yeah it was really good and not only was it good, but it also completely filled me up so I wasn't hungry anymore after I ate it. Can't wait to try out the rest of the Indiana Jones breakfast menu items over the next few weekends.
