toadster101's sm3xy blog!

Hello! I'm toadster101. I am a huge Nintendo/Anime/Movie/TV fan. My favorite video game characters are definitely Wario and Donkey Kong. Unlike most users with Nintendo-themed icons/profiles these days, I am not generic or robotic, so stay tuned to my wacky blogs and comedic board posts! I won't disappoint. That's all you really need to know about me. Squadalla, we're off!



I'm going to be gone for two weeks, starting tomorrow afternoon. Major!

As I've said nearly five times already, I'm moving. We aren't leaving until Sunday, but we're dtiching the house and going to a hotel tomorrow. I'll be here in the morning for a little while, but then I'm off. My father claims "it will take about a week", but considering how many ridiculous detours the man likes to take, I'll say two weeks to play it safe. Yes, I know I have to miss E3, but the info isn't going to disappear. I could care a less about a stupid emblem.

Well, some hotels let you rent laptops, so maybe...

Anyways, don't expect me back for a little while. If I'm gone longer than three weeks, I'm dead. I would never leave you guys for that long. I doubt it will even be two weeks, but I'll make a blog when I arrive and the internet gets set up. At least my Wii will be fixed by then...

God, my fricking eyes hurt. Stupid obsessive compulse disorder... I can barely even concentrate anymore. Well, let's hope something good gets announced while I'm away. Pray with me for a new DK game. Please.

Squadalla, I'm off!

My top movies of 2008 thus far!

1. Iron Man

2. Indiana Jones: Kingdom of The Crystal Skull

3. The Forbidden Kingdom

4. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

5. Drillbit Taylor

-----

I thoroughly enjoyed all of those movies. People are telling me to see The Incredible Hulk, but it just doesn't interest me. I can't wait for The Dark Knight. Hellboy looks decent, too. I'm also looking forward to a couple of Brendan Fraser movies ( Journey to the Center of the Earth and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor ). Overall, this has been a fantastic year for movies. I'm sure the best is yet to come...

I'm sick of the horrible Virtual Console releases... ( major rant )

I can't imagine anybody possibly defending the crap we've been getting lately. Since Nintendo hasn't even released a single Wii game of their own in June/July ( In America ), the least they could do is put a good VC game up. Nope. Nothing. The only Nintendo-made thing we got in June was My Pokemon Ranch, and we all know how wonderful that is.

Today, we got SPOGS Racing and The King of Monsters.

For the past month or two, we've got nothing but crappy, overpriced Neo Geo fighting games ( half of them are just rehashes ) that are going to be on an upcoming compilation and shovelware Wii Ware games ( aside from Gyrostarr ). When the hell are we going to get another NES, SNES or Genesis game? What's it been now, six months? Damn this is annoying. Seriously, I want a ****ing SNES game. I grew up on that mother ****ing system, dammit. Not Neo Geo. I bet there's three people on Gamespot who had a Neo Geo as a child. Nintendo just wants to release as many Neo Geo games they can before the compilation comes out; obviously an attempt to whore money from consumers.

There has only been one week when there hasn't been a Neo Geo release since May 26th, when Neo Geo games began being updated on the Virtual Console again. That week was an import week, when Dig Dug and Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa were released. Since then, a total of six Neo Geo games have been released: Metal Slug, Ninja Combat, Samurai Shodown, Burning Fight, Fatal Fury 2 and now King of the Monsters. In those six weeks, only two non-Neo Geo games have been released: City Connection alongside Metal Slug on May 26th and Alex Kidd in Miracle World alongside Burning Fight on June 23rd. That means there have been four one game weeks in the last seven weeks, all Neo Geo games ( Ninja Combat, Samurai Showdown, Fatal Fury 2 and King of the Monsters ). Seriously, what the ****.

Nintendo is really hitting below the belt now, they could easily have mixed things up and had just one other VC game. A SNES or NES game, even a Genesis or Master System would be very welcome at this point. I hate just sitting on my points because Nintendo refuses to release anything but Neo Geo until everything on the collection is out there.

I remember when Reggie said "We'll be able to keep a drought away by having fun cla$$ics to revisit!"

LIES.

Seriously, there's no excuse for why we still haven't gotten Super Mario RPG. It's not like it has to be translated. It's a ****ing ROM. Not only did Japan get it already, but they also got Mario Super Sluggers and a couple of other games in June. Us Americans got a big slap in the face.

Recommend me a DS game... ( + I'm moving! )

I already have a lot of the Nintendo published games, so suggest something third party, if you will. It has to be easy enough to find that I can just walk into a store and pick it up. It has to be long; I'm moving, AGAIN. As you may already know, I moved last summer. Things didn't work out, so I'm moving back, which means, another 6-10 day car ride. I'm open to all suggestions.

I am leaving next Saturday, which means I have to miss E3. God dammit. There better be something good announced while I'm gone.

I need your guys help deciding on an icon! There is a reward... UPDATED: 2 new!

The Wobby icon didn't work out, but I've got a whole bunch of other icon-sized Pokemon card images that I think are worthy. I want to know which one you think looks the best ( and would look the best on me ). The reward is... you guys are free to use whatever icons I don't pick! I'm sure some of you would be interested in a few... HOWEVER, please don't try suggesting the worst icon ( for me ) so you can nab the best looking one for yourself. I'm not stupid...
