Because I'm a Switcher

Astral Chain pre-order bonus shirt, and a cheap €5 Mercy shirt, because why not.

Decided to make it its own blogpost instead of editing the previous one.
Switch loot!

But before that, unfortunately.. the Roof Repair Saga continues on…
Cause of all delays and stress. Now I’m hearing February.
This better be the last damn date change, because my hair’s literally turning white from this shit.
I’m also sick of the post ruining my NGNL merch.

The Ballad of 3DS Games

General Figure Comics briefly returns with the 3DS Woes Trilogy and Kyon’s quest to save Haruhi.
Maybe Reycal vs Saber too.

The last two are shorts that I had posted on figure.fm, but since that site’s as dead as a fish without water now, and I never uploaded them here… Might as well!
The 3DS ones are new and self-suffering, but it gave me the opportunity to finally check if chroma-keying is a valid method with my current setup.

It was not. Need moar lights.

Last rant before the switch

Last rant before the switch

Picture unrelated. I just wanna show off my Guppies :V

Said switch being the Anivoyization of AE, not the Nintendo Switch. Even though I rant about my OCD with it a lot (Just had to find out there was a slight brighter spot in the corner last night… After almost 6 months… ARGH! Well, I do mainly play TV-mode).

The title in Japanese is Okami HD. My only digital-purchased title is Valkyria Chronicle Remastered.

Haven’t posted in a while.

The Nintendo Switch (and stable income) has certainly re-awakened the gamer in me.
Though I’ve yet to start on my N64 backlog, I’ve been dabbling into various games of my Switch stockpile that’s now increasing faster than any other system I’ve ever owned…

Just ranting/venting/etc a bit, normal/calmer post later. The weekend, probably.
I’m tired, angry, ill and annoyed (Just another day..)

Into the Retro 2: Universal Game Case

As seen on Twitter!

Continuing on from the last Retro post; I’ve updated my covers!
Since I have a decent salary now (Hurrah), I decided to check out some copy shops in the area, and I happened to walk into one who were giving people 25 free full color prints, that week only.

A sign of the ancient gods! Since I have exactly 25 UGCs (but not yet 25 N64 games to fill them with, so I had to pick what I was most likely going to buy in the future).

A breath of the wild

“It’s a statue, not a figurine!”

With Yayifications of employment, comes the craze of preparing to buy stuff you couldn’t before.
Planning to get a Switch with my first or second paycheck, followed by some new releases end of the year (You can probably guess which).
But while gazing at these things online, I noticed a lone Breath of the Wild Limited Edition box still being sold (Still retail price, too!).

So I bought it, without owning a Switch (yet).
T-That bookcase can wait another month.. *Drowns in boxes*

Well, there’s progress with the renovation.

If everything goes alright, I should be able to begin prepping for another season of The Legend of Araragi-kun or general figure comics somewhere in April.

Just finished painting the walls and we can start moving stuff this weekend.
Once the furniture’s been moved, shelf-sizes can be calculated.
So many boxes to unbox when the time comes..

As for Anivoy T2.. Let’s say I’m struggling with nicknames. You’ll understand when it’s uploaded.
Requiem still whenever, figuring out if I want to redesign some stuff.
Also have an icebreaker in mind.

A GW2 guildie gifted me the Tomb Raider reboot, which is an enjoyable playthrough.
My only TR experiences are with 2 and 3 from the originals, and I never get far in those. Really not far. Like, Venice. I think I spend more time messing around in the Croft Mansion, thinking some object was a secret entrance.

Damn, do the developers love having Lara fall off of high places.

After Skyrim, I also picked up Oblivion. Guess I’ll be playing in reverse order!
The EU (Or Dutch) edition of the Skyrim Legendary Edition box was.. Disappointing.
No map of Skyrim. No sticker. Not even a manual. Just a paper with a steam code and the install cd.

And now I find out the 5th Anniversary edition of Oblivion didn’t come with any physical extras either here.
Everything was put on a dvd. I have to fucking print my own poster.
Thanks, Zenimax Europe. Fucking cheapskates.

Watch the same shit happen when I eventually get Morrowind.

My first, latest, and also only home console that I own 100% myself is a Nintendo 64 (Shared one is a Magnavox Odyssey²/Philips Odyssey²/Philips Videopac G7000/Whatever they called it).
I got it on one of my birthdays with Mario 64 packed in, and Ocarina of Time as an extra.
At the least, my parents knew that having just a single game was a waste. Just like with my Gameboy being bundled with Tetris, and having Marioland 2 as an extra game.
