Being a good week for Lost media.

First the N64 stuff, then Luigi and now this:


Feels great to see many gaming communities recovering lost media.

Does anyone know where I can sell off a bunch of old sports cards that I don't need?

They belonged to my dad but when he died nobody wanted to take them so I'm stuck with them.

I can't believe this dude is still active on the Let's play scene.

I've been watching him since I was a kid.

Brace yourselves yet again lads! While the models and assets haven't been dumped yet, they have find DK and Wart's files in the SM64 source code. I must be dreaming, I'm probably in Subcon. We might be seeing SM64 DK and Wart models in the next few hours. :bluejump:

If Zelda 64 got cancelled I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have :linkmelee:

No, I knew Majora’s Mask and I think Ocarina of Time we’re both 64 games. I was just wondering if that was a cancelled game or cut content from one of the other ones. Sorry if I phrased it weird.

Zelda 64 was the beta version of Ocarina of Time that was originally being developed on the N64DD and then it was moved to the normal N64 hardware and the finalize name was Ocarina of Time. Ura Zelda was the cut N64DD expansion that would have come out after Ocarina of Time's release that would have included new dungeons and new sidequests.

Edit: ZELDA 3 SNES LINK SPRITE!!!

No ****? L is Real is literally a meme hoax. That's like saying the Wario Apparition is just a myth like people were actually believing it.

People are just laughing off the coincidental time lapse.

Dark can work for the Sonic universe.

But grimdark can NOT work in the Sonic universe.

The overall tone of the franchise is too upbeat. If you wanna add in darker elements, I'm in full support of it! However, don't overdose on dark elements to the point where the series is unrecognizable. The sonic universe in the Shadow game is unrecognizable, and that's where the biggest downfall of the game lies, arguably. It's so legendarily cringe and edgy.

Spider man is known for having upbeat story lines but that doesn't mean it can't pull off grim dark ones. Its not impossible for Sonic series to do its just really difficult. But it can be done as long as the writer knows how far to take it. So I think it can be done its just the margin for error is very small like balancing on a tight rope.

It definitely takes a lot of skill to put those kind of stories well but considering the overall design of the characters and series, I feel like there’s only so far you can take it before it gets a little silly. Like did anyone really take Silver’s “Is it wrong to kill somebody to save the future” speil in 06?

That's why the margin for error is so small you can't be too heavy handed with but just enough to give off the atmosphere. From my point of view I wouldn't change Sonic he would be the light to a bleak world, bringing happiness or tries to. That's why I think it would be a fun challenge. Oda really showed us that even the most wacky designs don't always hind a story if the story teller is skilled enough with his story direction.

Hmm... some sites are giving the preorder price for Nexomon: Extinction $30 and others say $40.

I'll wait a little bit longer.

Alicorn Alicorn 's avatar is ****ing breaking his back though. Some lumbar lordosis type beat.

LSuperSonicQ just in time with this lost media video with the N64 stuff getting dumped:


It turns out back in the 90s in Mexico there was a officially license Super Mario 64 area called Casa De Mario that was in a Mexican theme park.

I think my job is killing my back. For the past few months, I've been having to move and stack a lot more water bottle cases due to the high demand caused by the pandemic. I've been trying to stretch and keep my back straight as I do it but man, my back just hurts randomly sometimes now. Even sitting up straight on my lunch break right now hurts a little. I'm worried I might injure myself at this rate.

I'd talk to my supervisors about it but my social anxiety keeps getting in my way. I guess I'll just keep trying to improve my posture for the time being.

Well, this took me by surprise. I never imagined such thing existing, especially not prior to Six Flags Mexico. But I gotta say, some of the pictures look kind of terrifying, similarly to those old photos of Disneyland or desolated parks that look like they came out of a zombie apocalypse movie. xD I don't know if it's just me, or the Mario painting seems to lack eyebrows.

It's indeed weird that they decided to make it in Mexico rather than the US of all places.

I work freight at night putting up heavy appliances so I feel your pain. I would recommend taking your time lifting stuff and don't rush. If you feel any back pain don't try to hurry up and get the job done do it at a certain pace that feels comfortable to you.

Okay I clearly have a problem. Is it bad I want to do my blue and yellow runs before I hit my Gold and Crystal runs for any Gen 1 Pokemon to transfer from Gen 2 to level up and make slightly easier? I feel like I'm cheating a bit

This

I work essential and have to deal with lifting boxes nightly. At one point in March, I pulled my back REALLY bad to where it was more of spasm. Since then my back haven't fully recovered. I know if I'm doing too much lifting my back will spike in pain and I leave the heavy stuff I can't lift to someone else.

And get some Blue Heat. That **** works well to relax your muscles

He's currently doing a Let's Play of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon DX.
You should see all of the horrible names Emile has given to all of the Legendaries he has recruited!
