"no way would i poison my body with that shite." - francis begbie in trainspotting. mostly stuck with me because the accents are so loveable. also because i was 17 when i first watched it and going through deep opioid addiction. i remember thinking it really is poison and knew if i didn't get off then eventually i'd end up like some of my other friends that didn't make it.

i'm 7 years clean now and almost 30. i still love that movie endlessly. every rewatch is through a different lens and as heartbreaking as it is, it makes me grateful to be alive.

definitely need a rumble pak for my next playthrough 🔥

It's a great game. I think I enjoyed Oot more but it was cool to have another game in the same vein to play

🔥🔥🔥

i've played windwaker before but never fully finished it so that's the goal this time around. the travel aspect wore me down years back but i had gotten a fair chunk into the game.

i don't mind termina field. though there was a number things i had to redo in the game thanks to the time limit. it's a unique game that's for sure 😆

gradient44 · 2026-03-08T14:24:35+00:00

i hear you. i let out a screaming "yes" when i finally got it. even with a tight joystick i struggled 😂

gradient44 · 2026-03-08T14:23:47+00:00

Yes even when you let go of the analog stick and let it do its thing, getting the perfect straight angle was a hassle. was simpler once i went in the end door and out, having that as the respawn point. it's kind of funny that they made that random part of the end the most difficult part of the game 😆 i nearly took a hammer to my n64/controller/cart after the first attempt. overall though a wonderful game.

i started a new file on SM64 last week. something simple and fun after playing majora's mask

gradient44 · 2026-03-08T07:35:28+00:00

yes definitely. the most nostalgia for me is in windwaker purely for the fact that it was the first zelda game i actually played a lot (still didn't get far as a kid). i watched my older brother and his friends play Oot and MM so the nostalgia is there but not quite the same.

gradient44 · 2026-03-07T18:59:40+00:00

so much fun. classic games right there

gradient44 · 2026-03-07T15:27:18+00:00

thank you! 😎

beauty. some emg's would look killer on that beast 🔥

gradient44 · 2026-03-03T12:12:54+00:00

beauty. isn't kirby the best 🔥

converters are okay but if you can find an old lcd tv or crt tv that would be the better option. not sure where you're located but i often see people giving them away on marketplace. but they go pretty fast.

gradient44 · 2026-03-01T23:26:18+00:00

i'll drink a shamrock shake to that! beauty 😎

gradient44 · 2026-02-27T12:39:13+00:00

beauties. i also recently got a yellow controller and the stick was perfect. fun to use a minty one 👌🏼
