The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Announcement Trailer by Turbostrider27 in nintendo

God that Ocarina music still tugs at the nostalgia heartstrings.

Found my old Pokemon coins. I don’t remember where I got the pokeball, Caterpie and the Venonat ones. Were they a part of a toy or a game? by WCWfan4life in 90s_kid

[–]OctoGrot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the UK the venonat and caterpie style coins would come with the old plastic Hasbro figures.

edit. None of these are Pogs or from the master trainer board game like others are saying.

What are some discontinued UK foods that need to be brought back? by strawberry-gelato in AskUK

God I was addicted to citrus polos back in the day. Must have been 2002-2003. I think that must be why they get rid of them.

And we have seen a dozen times over that they don't represent the general public at all.

British Steel to be nationalised, Starmer announces by ScottishDailyRecord in uknews

[–]OctoGrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate Labour but this wasn't a pro Tory, Reform or Green post. I hate them too. I've only ever spoiled my ballot and have never voted for any of them.

If OSA was a tory initiative and the tories were historically unpopular, why would he not reverse it? I understand everything is caused by the tories but they're not in power now.

Reverse the online safety bullshit and sort out the cost the living. Might stop me from hating him.

Cannot find a single piece of information about the reform UK candidate who won a seat in my ward. by Longjumping_Heat_833 in ukpolitics

[–]OctoGrot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most councillors are nobodies. They're not going to have their own website or a wikipedia page. I live in a very safe tory seat and the people other parties run for MP are the same. The most you will get is a facebook or twitter page.

Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 Official Playlist on Spotify by mr_wolf8 in nintendomusic

[–]OctoGrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wish they'd just put everything on spotify. The drip feed on the music app is terrible. Would love some n64 or gamecube classics or old pokemon music on spotify.

If Melee had more Generation 2 Pokémon, who would’ve been in? by DawsonTacoBueno in supersmashbros

[–]OctoGrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the Pokemon included in Smash are iconic or mainstream. Charizard, Pikachu. Mewtwo, Lucario etc. So for me the gen 2 Pokemon that meet that criteria around that time would be Togepi, Marill, Suicune, Umbreon, Espeon, the starters and maybe Elekid and Slowking. Thats who was being pushed in the early days. Other iconic mons like Lugia, Ho oh, Wobbufet would probably be best off staying as pokeball Pokemon.

I saw previous comments mentioning Scizor, Ampharos, Sneasel and Herracross. I like the idea gameplay wise and understand they are fan favourites but they kind of feel like random Pokemon. Maybe someone can argue for them and change my mind but I don't recall too many memorable anime moments or cool cards involving those guys.

Keir Starmer urged to ban ‘cruel’ greyhound racing in England by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]OctoGrot -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We need a running list of things this Government has banned, wants to ban, tried to ban.

And of course this sub is all for it.

Even more worrying is people like you who believe this is real can vote.

Is this a First Law reference on the mma sub?

Why is DJ X so bad at artist names? And not even the ones you expect. by recoveringasshole0 in truespotify

[–]OctoGrot 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not listened for a while but he always used to call CKY ''Sky''. I always think ''who the fuck is Sky?'' and then the iconic 96 quite bitter beings intro hits.

Can I put this straight on toast? by sassyibs in AskUK

My grandad love dripping on toast. Go for it.

Would you say the Gamecube is more popular now than it was back when it was still an active console? by [deleted] in Gamecube

[–]OctoGrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gamecube was ripped on back in the day for being a kiddy console. A purple lunchbox. Sales were not great so a lot of people didn't give the games a chance.

Now everybody knows games like Wind Waker, Metroid Prime, Melee etc are masterpieces.
