I fell asleep during every Studio Ghibli movie I've ever seen with the exception of Princess Mononoke. It's just sad.

There's a word for it, but it's certainly not "damage".



Is anyone other than me getting Etrian Odyssey IV today? This is my first EO purchase. I remember playing a lot of these first-person style dungeon crawlers in the early PC days, there were even some on SNES (one in the Forgotten Realms comes to mind)

Ha! Who said anything about me not liking Studio Ghibli? I told Cure I thought Ni No Kuni would be boring after playing the demo, that's what I was talking about.

And again, go f*ck yourself!

I was afraid it might be boring when I saw the gameplay videos. It's kind of a shame because they obviously put a lot of heart into it.

Best Buy had BOGOHO on Wii U games last week. Since I hadn't picked up anything since I got it, I went for New Super Mario Bros. U.... and then nothing else available really jumped out at me. I settled for Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper since my brother enjoys those games.

And haters gonna hate, but Ponyo is the best goddamn movie of all time.

Ponyo was pretty amazing but Princess Mononoke and Grave of the Fireflies are probably Ghibli's best work.

Target has Buy 2 Get 1 Free on all Wii U games right now. Sadly there aren't 3 games I want, I already own Nintendoland, NSMBU and ZombiU. Nothing else appeals.

I do have Monster Hunter pre-ordered on amazon. If you order both the Wii U and 3DS versions together you get $20 off, and since the games support gamesave sharing it's a pretty easy choice for me. I also have LEGO City Undercover on pre-order. I think it's going to be a fantastic game, and the Wii U really needs it right now. Eurogamer has a great piece on it.

Ponyo is great. I need to see it again. I saw it in theaters when it came out. I also saw Arrietty last year on the big screen. It won't be remembered as one of their best but I still loved it. The theater only had about 10 people in it, but in front of me was an older Japanese gent and when it was over he was wiping tears from his eyes. It didn't quite have that effect on me but it is nicely done.

If you mean the zen pinball version, it's not bad. i like the x-men board best though. i have a friend who plays a lot of those. the last pinball game i gave serious playtime to was sonic spinball on the genesis. i was pretty young though; not sure i would dig it today. I can still remember the music, though

People usually say things like "your sarcasm meter is broken" but this is the first where someone's literal meter is broken.
