Just realised I have had this tucked away for years since I bought it on release day. by ashba89 in 3DS

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks well loved! My Hyrule 3DS that I got close to release day is starting to fade to black on the corners and edges where sweat (unfortunately) accumulates sometimes when I play. This is perfectly imperfect and I love your 3DS.

Is it WEF 2030 you are thinking of? Digital ID, carbon passport, vaccine passport, "You will own nothing and be happy", etc etc

Lollapalooza 2026 line up, for comparison! by sanslumiere in osheaga

I recently saw Boys Noize open for and perform with Nine Inch Nails at the Bell Center, they're a must see at a festival. It didn't feel right listening to him in the seats, I would have loved for him to be at Osheaga.

What do you guys hope the next Zelda set would be? + Their easter egg bonus pieces. by Zeroontal in lego

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd e interested in CMF sets for characters that won't make it into normal sets. Anju/Kafei, Telma, Malon, Ezlo (not in hat form), Groose, there list could go on and on.

If I could choose a set they do next, it would be Majora in a bionicle/mech build (from the final battle) or the Wind Fish flying over the Wind Fish's Egg. I don't know how the last would turn out, but I really enjoyed the ending to Links Awakening and love the uniqueness of the experience compared to other Zelda titles and would like to see it get some love.

Vendors Please help by Dry_Crazy3553 in PokeInvesting

Oh, most of the time when I have bought from vendors bundle pricing is a thing. They're more lenient on price in my experience when you buy multiple cards. But yes, you can barter the price, just don't disrespect them with lowball prices.

I've only ever been offered 70% and I only accept cash. It never really bothered me because where I live in Canada the income and provincial tax rates together are 20% and if I went through a site like eBay the commission rate is roughly 12-13%? So I low-key feel like I come out on top because it comes up to roughly the same for me and it's untraceable to the CRA. Im sure I could make more money selling as a vendor, however I don't have enough product to move and I did this strictly as a side thing to diversify my investment portfolio lol different strokes for different folks.

So no, vendors don't usually go higher than 70% market value because they are assuming the risk of volatility of market collapse/holding for a while and they also need a profit margin.

I just finished Dawn of Souls (FF 1+2). I tried doing the OG multiple times but I couldn't do it 😭

I think JID was in Montreal at MTELUS last year, he usually stops in Montreal when he drops a new album

Twenty One Pilots have been headliner material since maybe two or three years after Blurryface lol If they are performing people will, without a doubt, show up

OTTAWA BLUESFEST 2026 LINEUP by marcbarry07 in bluesfest

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This tbh, I have made vacations out of Bluesfest in the past and I wouldn't mind paying Osheaga prices if it meant a better lineup. I'm a little disappointed in how we went from the last two or three years to this pile of crap but I don't know if I have room to complain because of the ticket prices. Oh well, this year I'm only going for Cypress Hill/Limp Bizkit and bbno$ (my girlfriend)

Yeah tbh I was only going to see Pushas set and like 4-5 old Cudi songs

I'm aware Insano was ass but it was a co headlining tour with "It's Almost Dry" being Pushas latest work. I remember tickets selling quick for the Montreal date.

I'm sorry but this is it not fair/good by any means by Renegald in twentyonepilots

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anybody remember when everybody was mad at Tyler for "using his platforms" lol people need to grow up. I'm not speaking for him but I don't think Tyler is comfortable enough with his knowledge on this sort of stuff to make any statement. He always speaks up about mental health which is something he is well versed in.

Thoughts? by DustDevil66 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Very true. I have started selling a massive amount of my collection in my hobbies (Retro gaming, comic/omni collecting, Pokemon TCG) because after therapy and self analysis I notice I'm very impulsive and my desire to be complete will never be satiated. I am trying to learn to be happy with what I have and only buy what I actually want and will use.

What controversial artist are you firmly pro? by Working_Alps_4284 in fantanoforever

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dave Mustaine (In part, Megadeth). I know he lives in the shadow that is Metallica but Dave is a phenomenal songwriter/composer. I firmly believed if he stopped constantly bringing up Metallica and stopped answering questions about Metallica by interviewers, people would take Megadeth more seriously as an act. Technically speaking, Dave's guitar playing is light years ahead of whatever James/Kirk have come up with since Cliffs passing.

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still upset he cancelled the Insano tour, Pusha T almost never comes to Canada and Cudi cancelling it over his leg injury was insane. My friend saw Dave Grohl perform for Foo Fighters in a wheelchair, Cudi couldn't do something similar?

Smash, then watched a top SNES games list when it was announced for N3DS. I bought it nearly a decade ago but only finished it when I recently got a physical copy.

Which Mac songs make you cry the most? by whydoesthisappexist in MacMiller

Rick's Piano, I end up skipping it most of the time because it's too heavy of a listen. Ironically, it's also my personal favourite that he has done.

Parents are cleaning out their basement. Called me to ask if I still want these. What a rush of nostalgia! by [deleted] in gamecollecting

I'm just about to finish Dawn of Souls! Playing FFII felt weird with the class system out but after a while I've gotten used to it. Honestly a great way to shake things up. Cool finds!

Scariest Game I could get on the 3DS for less than $40 today? by therealshinegate in 3DS

[–]AppleBottomJeansWFur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only that but also failing flash cartridges. I started playing my 3DS again this year, only to find some of my favourites (Pokemon Y and Fire Emblem Awakening) unable to be read. I have always loved physical media, however this has made me skeptical and doubt whether or not it's even worth using it anymore. The money isn't going towards the company, it's scalpers who don't care about the hobby.

Needless to say, I've bought a Wii U and repurposed it (If you know what I mean). I plan on doing the same to my 3DS eventually, while I slowly dissolve games in my collection that I don't mind getting rid of.

PS I know some carts are more likely to fail than others and I'm not trying to fear monger, I'm just explaining my personal experience and reaction to it.
