We love Skilpadde

They've made a great effort with the music in the Pokemon games, that's for sure.

The Explorers of Sky soundtrack is my other favourite, along with Heartgold/Soulsilver.

Woo-hoo! Guess what came in the mail today? Pokemon Rumble World! Now I'm off to try it out

There's a European release date for Fire Emblem Fates! May 20th!

Over in North America, the third version of the game [Revelation] comes out this Thursday!

My friends in the WP who are younger than me, by decades. You have not lived in an era with the Soviet Union in the background. I have. You may not know that the first real on-screen computer game was designed precisely in the Soviet Union. It was called Tetris, and today, it is computer history.

It would be futile to add links, just go Google "tetris online."

Not bad for someone who is 239 years old.

Dear Kuraudo. You may not know that in real life, I will turn 63 next summer. Please, God, let me stay this childish till I meet you.

^ I had a feeling you were older than me.

^^I'm always childish. It's one of my defining character traits. What do you mean, 'until I meet you'?

Uhm, I was 12 when the Berlin Wall fell, and despite being a kid at the time, I very well remember the Cold War and the iron Curtain. Heck, I still think in terms of those lines today. I remember the end of the Cold War, the stories that leaked out from Romania in particular (the orphanages, surely no one alive at the time can forget the images of those children). I remember well the Soviet threat in the background.

Tetris was my first Gameboy game. I got it with my gameboy for my 13th birthday and I've been hooked on it since. The original Tetris is very fun. It had nice music too, simple and fitting for it. I tried track A, B and C, but almost always chose A, and occasionally C.

Pokemon Rumble World has me hooked! As in the previous Rumble game it's about collecting toy Pokemon, but new of this game is air balloons! Using diamonds one can buy new balloons to go new places and collect more Pokemon.
One minus is that you don't get to easily pick where to go as you choose the area balloon, but then it spins between several places and you can try to push the button at the right time but it's not easy. It gets less fun as I have more and more Pokemon and don't manage to push it at the right time. I wish there was a way to speed it down. And it takes some time before the balloon is ready to fly again unless I pay extra for it.

Already I have over 200 Pokemon (although fewer species) and that is despite having released probably about 100 now.

Just when you think you've caught them all, another generation is introduced.

Which is definitely something I am very happy about! The rumors seems to think the next game is set in Hawaii (or a Hawaii like place). Maybe that means a new species of sea turtle! I can hope.

If it is set on Hawaii, I hope they will add sea turtles, colorful fish and diving. Maybe we could see new wrecks to explore.

Come to think of it, we talked about possible Eeveelutions in one of these threads a while ago. I found 2 interesting videos on the matter with some nice suggestions (just bear with the flippancy and focus on the Pokemon)

Skilpadde, we forgot all about our Battleship game.

oh snap! It got lost in everything else that went on in the thread. I hope you still have the board? I do.

Your last move was hitting B-9 and C-10 on my grid.

D-2 and E-1!

I sure do.
