In Paper Mario, I managed to get through the Dry Dry Desert in about two hours after 3 deaths, a man-made map, and running away from battles for the first time. Kooper (best party member) is my new avatar.

Pretty sure Amazon f*cked me ou of my MM3DSXL preorder. I've been told they're expecting the rest of their preorder stock next week, but I have zero faith. At least I got the MMLE.

Finally got Flipnote Studio 3D, but it's been so long since I played the original, I'm a bit rusty. I hope I can once again cook up some neat stuff in it.

I'm hoping sometime in the near future I can grab myself a new Wii-U title, I still need Super Mario 3D World, & Toad's Treasure Tracker, so they're top priority. Given the latter is cheaper I will probably opt for that first. Will I still be able to get coins for it if it's purchased after February 20th? & where the hell is Yoshi's Wooly World at? Dying for that to come out. Also anticipating the Hatsune Miku game on 3DS due to hit the states in May.

Wooly World is slated for this year, so I'd say we'll have more info at E3.

I really don't know what in the f**k I'd do with Flipnote.

I actually just finished OoT3D again last week and then started on Master Quest. Must be a bug going around.

I want to play Oot3D so badly but I'm a physical games guy and finding that for a good price is tricky. Saw a new copy for $50 once...as the other person was buying it.

If I already have the N64 version of OOT, would buying the 3DS version add anything significant, or am I good with just the original? I don't know a lot about the differences.

I need to buy the 3DS version of MM since I somehow lost my copy of it. I'm still so upset about that.

OOT3D looks nice. I'm pretty sure it has a few changes.

Man, I've heard so many people talk about how hard to find OoT3D is these days, but there are still tons of copies in every store around here. I should grab some and hold on to them.

I think it's the definitive version of the game. Looks good, has some nice tweaks and contains the mirrored Master Quest. Great little package.

OOT3D was avalible everywhere for the longest time. It's only now rising in price, so it's not like Kid Icarus where it was out for half a year and disapeared, OOT3D was out since 2011.

Speaking of N64 OoT, where do I find Nayru's Love at? Is it by Ganon Castle? *I always had a hard time finding that one stone.*

I've completed 53/100 missions on Sonic Generations so far. I had 165 Play Coins when I first started, plus some of them got unlocked as I was S-Ranking stuff. From here I'll only be able to do two missions per day at most. They haven't been hard at all, though.

I'm on Special World 8 now on Super Mario 3D Land. The cosmic Mario stages are a little annoying, but that's about it. I'm at 368 lives now, and I should have the game beaten the next time I play it.

I managed to beat Gary on Pokemon Puzzle League, only to fight Mewtwo directly after him with no save between matches. I got crushed my Mewtwo, lol. I'll defeat them both eventually, though.

It's pretty much the same story for Punch Out!. The difference, though, is that I have no trouble taking out Super Macho Man. Heck, sometimes I no damage the fight against him. I'm just getting my timing down for Mr. Dream. There is very little room for error in that fight since every uppercut that he lands knocks you down instantly. So it's a slow learning process, but I'll get it down soon enough.

I beat the final stage on Ghosts 'n' Goblins, and got the "This room was an illusion" message. So now I'm going back through all the stages. I'm on Level 3-2 right now. I can make it to the boss just fine, but that stupid dragon stays too high for me to reach and then dive bombs me. It shouldn't take too many more tries to beat him, though. After completing those last stages, these early stages are a cake walk. .....Except for Stage 2-2!! That area in the apartment complex with the crows and trolls is STUPID! Those trolls take a million hits to kills, there's a ton to them to defeat, and the crows don't stop respawning (not to mention they fly in that annoying wavy pattern!). So you have to fight off one troll at a time while another troll attacks from above, and crows fly in from the left and right! That's one of my most hated areas of the game! Thankfully, I now have the Dagger at least!

Nothing new to report for Donkey Kong Country. I'm still just trying to find that last secret in "Tanked Up Trouble".

Sorry I didn't respond to you sooner, but I'm going to have to try that whenever I get the chance. Thanks.

I actually still prefer Chip 'n Dale, and I'd love to see that game get remastered as well. The only thing I have left to do on DuckTales: Remastered is unlock everything in the vault. How about you?
I got Rescue Rangers for Christmas in 1990, and finished it the day after. I got to play Duck Tales long after, and I finished that too. I was waiting for it to be available on the Wii Virtual Console, but it didn't look like it would ever happen (and of course it never did). So I caved in and looked for a copy on eBay. I actually talked about it a while back.

I finally finished the GBA cartridge for A Link to the Past that I recently bought off someone.

Spoiler:
You find it in Desert Colossus. It's somewhere on the right-hand side of the Spirit Temple entrance. You have to bomb the entrance open to a Great Fairy Fountain to get it.

I just finished master quest last week in preperation for MM. I enjoyed the challenge. I think they changed the puzzles in the dungeons, but it might just be that I haven't played in a while and don't remember them.

Even open complete copies are going for a bunch. Might throw mine on ebay and use the $ to get the digital copy.
