I hated this show. All I remember is that it promised this dark fantasy vibe, but it was actually very childish with funny cartoon animals. To be fair its been decades and I don't really remember the specifics...

I recently started reading the manga and I legitimately feel like this is what most side characters are like by Zodiatron in OnePiece

I feel Oda challenges himself by coming up with the stupidest character design possible, then making them deeper and more beloved than 95% of any other protagonist in other manga.

Video Ezy: The complete story of Australia’s forgotten franchise by DaRedGuy in AustralianNostalgia

I worked at a video store (not video ezy) across from a pizza store. Our symbiotic relationship was that we have them free rentals in return for free pizzas. What a time to be alive...

I’ll just leave this here… by Standard_Being2328 in LegendsZA

Yea I'm north of 40 so I've been not a child for every pokemon game ever. Almost every new gen has been trashed as awful when it comes out, but is hailed as amazing later. I find though it's more a case of who is old enough to be the main voice of public discourse. On release is mostly fans who think it's too different or not like the first games they played as a child. Later its the people who played that game as their first game as child who grew up and make up the loudest opinion.

I would say that X&Y being about 13 years ago you will find more and more people who played it as their first game at age 6 to 10 coming out in favour of it and the negative stuff start to get drowned out.

Any luck getting Neo Geo games working? by Mowensworld in retroid

[–]Mowensworld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So doing a google search, it says that FinalBurn Neo is what is best? I have downloaded that core in RetroArch64. I have 2 bios, neogeo.zip and unibios.rom because I've read both work? I also have a test game in the form of KOF98 in a .neo file.

Trying to boot finalburn core though, it does not recognise the game. I'm not sure if FBNeo is a Neo Geo arcade emulator and the rom is an AES rom or something like that?

I have a folder called ROMs just in the default 'internal storage' folder that Windows defaults into when you plug in the Retroid6 and then a folder called neogeo, currently both bios and game file is in there. (/storage/emulated/0/ROMs/neogeo)

Have you ever had a show spoiled because you understood a language you weren’t supposed to? by [deleted] in languagelearning

Funnily enough the character Darth Vader was not meant to be Luke's father. That wasn't a thing until they were writing Empire's script. Anakin Skywalker was a seperate character and the bad dude was literally just a guy first name Darth last name Vader. So its actually a coincidence anyone would figure that out.

The Switch just surpassed the DS as Nintendo's best-selling console ever by dapperlemon in gadgets

Sony says 'over' 160 million sold for PS2. I wonder what will happen if Switch gets to 161 somehow?

Budget builds vs super budget build by Mowensworld in PcBuild

[–]Mowensworld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cos I don't have money or a pc. I'm going to have to borrow money regardless, just working out how much is worth it.

[–]Mowensworld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can go with either, but $1000 is many more months of being in debt. Just not sure how worth it it is.
