How's life in the Netherlands?

Add me as another person who recommends Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors. I played through that at the end of last year and absolutely loved it!

Thank you for the welcome!!

I do like it. We live at a boarding school that we work for, so work seems like it never stops. But it is a fun job. How have things been for you?

Things are good. Just been really busy. My family and I moved to another part of the country and have new jobs so we have been going nonstop for months now. Barely had time to sit down and think

Haha Glad I am not the only person. It is so easy to get distracted just sailing around and getting everything done. The sailing mechanic is definitely one of my favorites.

How have things been?

Hey ho! No worries for late replies, I'm as slow as ever!

Everything good here on the other side of your eastern borders! Summer is sunny, weather is good, there's lots of outdoors activities to enjoy and when one's home, there's plenty of games to enjoy...including videogames!

Very very good I wouldn't know, but I enjoyed playing Four Swords Adventures lately, despite I've been playing it alone and not with three other friends, each with his or her GBA. It was a very different Zelda, but there were parts of it that I enjoyed much more than what similar Zeldas did. I know it's heresy, but I guess I enjoyed Four Swords Adventures more than A Link to the Past!

Other really neat games, I wouldn't know. I played Final Fantasy II, but the main story was okay, and the after story was mainly just a grindfest... and I despise those.

Other than that, my 2015 has been unspectacular as far as beating games goes, so... I won't add more trouble to your backlog!

What about you? Any good games? Enjoying the summer?

Thanks!

Hey there, has been a while: how's tricks? Been playing any good boardgames recently?

Happy backloggiversary!!!

Happy Backloggiversary!

Oh...you have Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. I must admit I am jealous; I used to have Path of Radiance before I leant it to someone and never got it back. I didn't get Radiant Dawn because I hadn't finished the previous game, but then the price rose and rose. I tried playing Path of Radiance on an emulator but it just felt wrong. I really hope they release them on the Virtual Console so I can play them. You should play them, it would be a shame not to.

By the way, how does one come to own so many games?

Hey there! Sorry for the long awaited reply! I've been moving (and still am) and it's all a mess here! XD

As for Wind Waker: I really like that game, it is probably my third favorite Zelda and my fourth favorite game of all time. I enjoy sailing, exploring the seas, and I love the ending of the game. That final monologue with Ganondorf is extraordinary! Loved it loved it loved it! =)

I got a Wii U, but just to get MewTwo for Smash Bros. 4! Other than that, I still havn't used it...at all! XD
But will do so soon, I really want to play some newer games lately, but somehow always stick to the older glories! Like Final Fantasy II, which I just finished!

Are you enjoying some nice weather over there as well? =) I might travel to the Netherlands in September and hope the weather will still be nice in 4 months! It was lovely 25° over here today, and enjoyed my time in the sun on the new balcony! Yay! ^_^

I must recommend you Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, it's the best of the trilogy!

I always use The Netherlands when I play 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil online. You'd be sad to know that I usually lose to people who live in South America and Mexico because they are so much better than me. Not that you care one bit about socc...sorry, football.

Updated to 5/15!

Heya. I am doing well thanks. Been busy, but good.

Managed to make it to 5 out of the 15 now I see, not bad going. In fairness, beating 5 games in a month is a pretty good achievement, even if you hoping to aim for 15. So yeah, congrats on the progress so far. Think you might make it 6 before the month is out?

Ha ha, yeah I had a slightly unexpected surge of finishing up games on iOS (some of which I had already half-beaten in fairness) which helped push things along. Yeah, didn't think I'd have anything like the number I have beat. It's actually only 11 beat in Feb so far, I think a couple of bits of DLC are distorting the numbers a little, and given I've started on Persona 3 that isn't going to change before the month is done. Still, pretty happy with 11 games beaten in a month.

As for tracking boardgame plays, I just don't keep track of even what games we play let alone how many times, what I might rate it, which expansions we do and don't use (or use in part, just to complicate matters).

Wow, sounds like you really are playing a lot of boardgame stuff, nice. And glad to hear you like Roll for the Galaxy. I'll have to see if my mate is picking that one up as I'd like to give it a go.

Yeah Bravely Default ended up being massively disappointing, which is fairly astonishing given how much I enjoyed the first half of the game. Very sad when that happens, and yeah also disappointing when a game leaves you with more questions but expects you to play more of a bad game to find stuff out. No thanks.

So, is there anything in particular that might tempt you to pick up a New 3DS? A particular game, or perhaps a particularly nice Limited Edition?

Thank you! It is pretty awesome! Just realized your theme is of it, is it not?
