...I have a copy. GameCube is death.

Certain parts of Luigi's Mansion scare me. Most notably when the chandilier falls on you and the sound of a ghost comes up up even though there aren't supposed to be any ghosts in lit rooms. *shivers*

Ooh, that gave me the creeps every time. *shivers*

I once got very mad at Pokemon Pinball and proceeded to throw it across the room. However, it hit a giant pillow, and still worked fine. Thank Nintendo for durable products.

You're making it sound as if it hit a wall of spikes rather than a giant pillow.

If it hit a huge soft thing, expect that it still works. Works with any product, doesn't have to be Nintendo's.

When I first had SMRPG as a seven-year-old, I initially thought Booster was a woman (his overcoat looked like a dress), and Valentina was a man (her dress looked like a beard).

Valentina a man? Never saw that one coming.

I always thought Valentina looked as if she came from some odd painting.

You know, something I come across all too often on the Internet is people thinking they can acquit themselves of any wrongdoing by saying stuff like "I wasn't trying to be rude, so therefore I wasn't being rude and I didn't do anything wrong and leave me alone." This thought process is faulty. People can be plenty rude and insulting without ever meaning to.

I wasn't trying to be rude in the "Always" post I just made to you in the manual thread.

Anyway, it's probably not much of a secret, but my "Wiimote-Controlled Sword Video and Contests for free Wii & Red Steel stuff!" thread here is just a viral marketing campaign for Red Steel through DojoofPain.com. I'm currently number one there with 5025 stars. I could easily double that if I had a good idea and could make a YouTube video for Red Steel. If anyone here is a member let me know and we can help each other get stars.

This is most likely due to the fact that text has no emotion.

Luigison · « **Reply #55 on:** October 22, 2006, 11:02:06 PM »

I don't think it's because of emotionless text or because it's on the internet. I've noticed more of what I'd call a "It's the thought that counts" generation.

Welllll...
One time when I was in a particularly foul mood, I made the mistake of playing Mario Kart DS on WiFi. I ended up getting pretty frustrated and, well... sorta bit my DS. I managed to keep myself from biting too hard, but it still left a slight mark.

A case of compounding mood (happiness begets happiness, frustration begets frustration), I'm afraid.

At least it was only a bit. A full byte would have been much worse.

Hehe. This sounds fun.

When I finally beat Bonetail, I threw my controller up into the air and began to pound my chest like a madman. My mother came in and was like, "What the heck is wrong with you?" I felt so embarassed, but I still feel pretty good about beating that sucker.

Ahaha, oh I love this because I did basically the same thing. It really was an amazing feeling.

When I was a novice gamer, Dark Matter and Waddle Doo(the N64 versions) scared the crap outta me. I didn't wanna go out at night because "it looks like that black eyeball thing from Kirby!" Mom and Dad threatened that I would never play video games again if it kept up, so I learned to stop being scared.
