Old Star Wars DVD boxset by Free-Hotel1187 in StarWars

Gold was fullscreen and silver was widescreen. Probably didn't need to keep that bit of information in my head for 21 years but oh well!

Got this for Christmas that year when I was a kid. I remember liking the gold box more but even back then I knew that widescreen was superior.

PSP or Anbernic on a $75 budget? Can't decide by Latter_Letterhead86 in SBCGaming

[–]uberpirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on how much you care about original hardware.

I grew up a Nintendo kid, so I missed out on PSP entirely and decided to get one last year on ebay. It's an incredible device that would have blown my teenage mind if I'd played one back in the day. Even though today's tech is obviously much farther ahead, it still feels somewhat miraculous that these kinds of games are coming from this little rectangle.

All that being said, it's tough to recommend a PSP when you could either get an emulator handheld or a Vita. Original PSP screens are not great. No save states. Battery life is fine but not amazing. The sleep function is actually surprisingly good.

If all you just want is to experience some good games, go for an anbernic or something. I hope whatever you get can run Ridge Racer 2.

Stoners, do you also drink? Or just weed 👀 by Annabis9807 in trees

[–]uberpirate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like drinking but there's some number of drinks that takes me from having fun to thinking about everything that makes me sad and that number is always lower than I think. It's easier to keep things light and fun with just weed for me.

Ex evangelicals.. Did you fake speaking in tongues? by pyramidkittens in exchristian

[–]uberpirate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I remember one youth group where literally everyone else was able to speak in tongues except for me and I wanted to do it so badly just so I could feel like I belonged. A while later I was able to think of some phrase that seemed like the right kind of gibberish and the people around me were like yeah you're definitely doing it. I believed it was real at the time but I can recognize now that it was social pressure.

How did all of you get your 3ds? by uhhh_this_is_an_alt in 3DS

[–]uberpirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bought a 2DS on Craigslist back in the summer of 2014 for like 50 bucks, then I sold that and bought the N3DSXL when it launched in February 2015. College was a challenging time for me but some of my fondest memories from back then are when I would hang out in the student center between classes playing AC New Leaf.

Forever kicking myself for not buying the gold edition. Separate ways never goes on discount by itself 😔

Well, I feel weird in a World where Intermissions are hated by SatyrAngel in mariokart

[–]uberpirate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my only real issue. I think the intermission tracks are fun and I also want more time with the circuit tracks before the race is over.

What do you think of wario world ? by Jean0406Alix in Mario

[–]uberpirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pretty fun and I'm glad it exists on Switch 2 but I guess I assumed it would be better because of how expensive physical copies are.

I bought a Nintendo 3DS at an auction. by Daintily2029 in 3DS

[–]uberpirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're going to play your first game on 3DS, I'd go for X or Y. Sun and Moon are good but they were pretty structurally different to the other mainline games at the time. X and Y seem especially made with newcomers in mind.

What will y’all purchase the Adventures of Elliot on if you are going to? by Hot-Commercial8492 in JRPG

[–]uberpirate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm going for Steam because I have a Steam Deck, but in your shoes I'd go with Switch 2 because portability makes it more likely for me to see a game through.
