"A good book is the best contentment has"
"An Introvert's Manifesto"
I like the way the author approached her research. She revealed some interesting facts and misconceptions about introverts based in scientific research.
The science behind it.
Kathe was good. She, like all narrators, helps you keep your hands free to do other things while listening.
That introverts are more sensitive to environmental stimuli.
This book just popular enough that everyone knows the title and few have read the book. People should actually read it. It is more than just the next hot thing. It is a good book.
"It brought me much understanding"
I'm an Extrovert married to an Introvert and I didn't understand him at all! This book helped me understand him and his style of communicating.
I learned that Introverts really can't think on their feet like we Extroverts do. In a conversation I cannot pressure my husband - I need to be more patient and give him time to process in his own way.
I learned about how to understand and deal with Introverts.
"Ever have someone tell you to be assertive?"
The modern world is one that rewards assertive, extroverted, and (lets face it) aggressive people. The author makes the argument that 1/3 to 1/2 of the people in the world are introverted: and more importantly, we need them.
The book does the somewhat obvious by telling us how important the quiet folks are, especially in a world where technology makes the face-to-face interactions a little less important.
More helpful is the rest of the book: how does a quiet person interact with the world? How do you "fake" being an extrovert when needed? How do you manage quiet employees? How do you help your quiet child interact in the loud world?
From discussion about the physiological reasons for introversion, to monitoring (and modifying) this behavior in order to function in the extroverts world.
A great book for those looking to understand and appreciate the introverted person, whether it be yourself or another person in your life.
"Book Could Have Saved Me $1000's in Shrink Bills"
Gee, when you talk about discrimination you have to talk about introverts as major victims.
All along we know that we're just who we are, but at some point fighting back is not worth the effort, so let's just relax with a good book and do other things by ourselves such as drawing, playing music, inventing, cooking, creating, thinking........
Susan did a fantastic job selling the fact that being a "quiet" one is perfectly normal for those that are. Honestly, the jerks and cretins I had to deal with from childhood, long into adulthood were just jerks and cretins. (I don't care if I offended anyone).
This book should be required reading for everyone, especially parents who suspect that something may be wrong with their "quiet" children.
Yes, I'm a little hostile about it. The book definitely brings back childhood memories of some of the closed minded neanderthals who bought into the "extroverts rule" thing and treated me like a maladjusted mental dwarf.
I'd like to see Susan do a sequel wherein rather than siting so many studies, she interviews a spectrum of introverts and thus exposes more of the potentially damaging the "extroverts rule" mentality is. Further, I'd like to read about more studies that address the relative IQ's of introverts vs. extroverts.
In my case, it wasn't until I was in my early 30's that I learned that I have an "out-of-the-park" IQ. While I often say and truly believe that IQ is over rated, it does have some comparative values. I'm one of those who was assumed to be of below average intelligence and thus assigned to remedial classes in public school. Fortunately, I got past that garbage and eventually proved the culprits wrong. Especially dishonorable mention goes to my relatives who thought my life would be spent wearing a dunce cap and never a mortarboard and tassel of a university.
Thanks again Susan.
"4 stars, worth a read"
yes - realizing i'm an introvert and what i need to do or not do will help others
"Intelligent and engaging"
Susan Cains in-depth research and obvious passion for her subject. I gave it four rather than five stars because it got a somewhat repetitive about 3/4 of the way through.
There is a shorter book in a similar vein called "Introvert Power". It isn't anywhere near as exhaustively researched but if the subject interests you it's a good, quick read.
Susan Cain's Ted talk is worth watching as well.
Have achieved significant success in business and personal life through self-help & education books.
"proud to be introvert"
warm inspiring brave
the story-teller makes it that much enjoyable. Her tone of voice is what you can right away comfortably associate with an introvert person, which makes you feel that this person indeed knows what she is talking about.
"Good book and I learned from it"
I would recommend it, but would mention that there are some biases and at times a political agenda. Take it for what you can get out of it, but be careful not to accept it entirely as fact.
This book has a lot of valuable information and gave me a better understanding of such topics as introversion and what it means to be a sensitive person. There are times that the author's biases come out, and even her own political views on some topics. I happen to disagree completely with some of the things she included in the book based upon my own understanding of evidence. However, I did appreciate the vast majority of the material presented and of the science and psychology she presented, when she stayed on the true topic at hand. I feel it would have been better had she not included her political and personal digressions and excluded her personal biases and judgments of some individuals and unrelated topics. These were small portions and only slightly distracting to me. Overall, I felt the book has value and I learned a great deal from it.
"Eye opening book on introversion"
Reading about an introvert's perspective on Tony Robbins. It was fascinating to hear the author's perspective on attending one of his conferences and how she completely processes just about every sensory input in the opposite way.
The part of the book where the author described parents who thought their kids were "defective" because they were not extroverted. It shows how our society is biased against introversion.
This book really opened my mind to introversion. I am an extrovert and have often held the same biases against introverts as other extroverts. It helped me to understand why people are introverted, why they are quiet, and how they still change the world. It has greatly enhanced my capability to interact with introverts and have much more productive relationships with them.

Wouldn't that be "It is
Wouldn't that be "It is kistomary to CUSS the bride."? That's the way I have always heard it.
Here's the curious story of how the word spoonerism was invented.
The Reverend William Archibald Spooner was a highly-regarded scholar and warden of New College at England's great Oxford University. Believe it or not, it was a mere slip of the tongue that started this dignified British clergyman on the road to eternal renown.
One day in a chapel, when announcing the name of a hymn, Spooner intended to say "Conquering Kings Their Titles Take." But what came out was "Kinquering Kongs Their Titles Take."
Although the members of the congregation probably maintained their composure, no doubt with considerable difficulty, from then on Spooner was a marked man.
When Spooner died in 1930 at the age of eighty-six, The New York Times allotted his obituary nearly a full column crammed with choice examples of the literary curiosity bearing his name.
Wouldn't that be "It is kistomary to CUSS the bride."? That's the way I have always heard it.
It is obvious, isn't it, that the Spoonerism is suffering a typo. Should we coin another word?
How about "misspoonerism"?
'mardon me padam, the pie is occupewed, may I sew you to a sheet?' has always been my favorite.
but I do remember, vaguely, after a night of debauchery, remarking that the imminent arrival of my grand parents was "Bind moggling" or was it "Bog Mindling"? or perhaps "Mog bindling"?

After losing their daughter in a drowning accident, a married couple (Donald Sutherland, Julie Christie) in Venice on business start to think they're seeing their daughter around the city in this classic horror thriller from director Nicolas Roeg.
Creepy, I love it.
not just another horror
Mixed feelings about this. Roeg is fantastic, but this is sorta all over the place. Cut to cut to cut to cut editing. I liked it a lot more when I saw it as a teenager. Still a good film, but it leaves a bit to be desired. Worth seeing at least once. I think Roeg's other films show more skill. The theme of mistaken identity throughout is curious.
Slow burn. Tense, methodical. Brilliant editing and visual work. Jaw-dropping at times but not the seminal work I came to expect.
Very busy, chaotic camerawork and editing steers the psychologically tense and mysterious puzzle that this slow burner puts together. The ending is pretty creepy.
painful and fun @ the same time.......... i feel like this movie was successful at creating a lot of creepy and cool sequences which ultimately got ripped off in movies with better writing. wish i hadnt watched this w my family but im glad i saw it!!!!!!!
Chaotic and Incoherent. Personally believe this film deserves an award for its HORRENDOUS editing.
I go back and fourth all the time about what the ultimate message of this film is, but the final flurry of images before it ends always lead me to one conclusion: the more we try to make sense of life, the more it gets away from us and the more senseless it all seems...just like the mosaic that John almost dies trying to complete.
I'm staying the @#$% out of Venice until this whole homicidal dwarf thing runs its course. Filmed in Cine-Hypnosis. Warning: Burn red rain-slickers until there is nothing left. People ask me what it's about. "Venice. Church renovations. Weird, withered old ladies of various heights. Arghh. Just watch the !@#$ing movie, OK?!?"
I used to be super-duper cynical about metaphysical stuff. Don't Look Now looks better now. Still not quite top-tier Roeg. It's an art film. It's a horror movie. Horror is about the return of the repressed. Don't Look Now's trump card is that what is being repressed is innate knowledge about the world and reality. Murky. I can only imagine how awful the du Maurier story must be. Roeg almost totally redeems. Almost.
2 componentes marcan la tragedia y el mal agüero en esta historia: el agua y el rojo. Para donde vaya, un padre se encontrará con este elemento y el color que le recuerdan esa tragedia que melló su tranquilidad, pero que además (se sugiere) activó su sexto sentido; la predicción. Irónicamente, este excéptico personaje tendrá la respuesta ante sí, más se negará a concebirla. Gran escena que cruza lo sexual y la rutina
A cinematically rich experience, the opening segment is a masterwork of colour and composition. At points it gives way to simplistic haunts of horror but has a depth and craft that elevates it above a traditional cinema experience. Glad to see it's getting the Criterion love it definitely deserves.
The editing ,,
As a Roeg fan, I could see what's there to appreciate, but sometimes becoming dated makes it hard to stifle the chuckles.
Life after loss OR Nightmare on Venice's streets
Stupid plot, but i like the sleepy Venice in wintertime.
Julie Christie is my style icon. A story worth ruminating. Editing is superb. Venice serves as an aging labyrinth of illusion. The ending was seriously unnerving, WTF. I can't get that image out of my head. Who is the real villain? Who killed whom?
It has a very deep meaning about how you should just let go your past before it kills you. Love the characters very much, love the great sex scene too. More than just another horror.
that ending was super freaky
*Spoiler alert* Engrossing, nonsensical, ends with a killer dwarf. What? If I didn't like Sutherland and Christie so much, wasn't sucked in by those blind eyes, and wasn't succored by the Venetian backdrop this would definitely go on the rubbish pile.
With all the weirdness on this picture, I say I Love
4 1/2 stars
1 1/2 out of 5 stars. What a steaming pile of crap! Nicolas Roeg's style is okay but the substance was seriously lacking. The first 5 minutes was disturbing (probably only because I'm a father) and the final 5 minutes was good but not even Julie Christie in all her glory could compel me to give a damn about anything else in-between. Truly overrated and incredibly dull nonsense.

Determination of seven frictionless fixturing points searching the object surface with a homogeneous deterministic distribution
Document typeExternal research report
Date issued2007-02
Rights accessOpen Access
The paper deals whit the problem of finding a form-closure fixturing of objects modeled whit triangular meshes and considering as quality measure the maximum wrench that the object can resist in any direction. Although a triangular mesh is a polyhedral representation of the object, the number of faces is too large to allow a practical application of existing approaches for polyhedral objects, and therefore some search procedure have to be applied. In the proposed approach the search of contact points is done looking for points directly on the object boundary instead of on the wrench space. In this way, all the object surface is homogeneously considered, while the quality is evaluated in the wrench space. The procedure iteratively looks, using heuristic criteria, for sets of points that improve the quality. The procedure was implemented and some application examples are included in the paper to illustrate the performance

Could Congress's Lifting the Crude Oil Export Ban Threaten U.S. Energy Security?
Congress may soon be addressing the export of energy by fully lifting the 40 year old United States crude oil export ban. Is this proposal in the best interests of the U.S., and can it be done without significant risks to either U.S. energy security or the economy?[read more]
Why Are California's Gasoline Prices So High?
"What?" you may be saying "Gas prices are lower than they have been in a long time." You see, while oil prices have been falling across the country, the gap between California gas prices and the rest of the U.S. has climbed to higher levels for a longer stretch than at any time in the last 20 years.[read more]
Volkswagen Needs to Adopt 21st Century Sustainability Management
Volkswagen's deliberate and systematic effort to violate clean air rules is a shameful scandal, but it is also an example of management incompetence. Like BP's inability to manage its drilling contractors in the Gulf of Mexico, it is an example of massive and predictable management failure.[read more]

Study: Electric Vehicles Can Dramatically Reduce Carbon Pollution from Transportation, and Improve Air Quality
Producing the electricity to power electric vehicles can generate emissions. But those emissions levels are far lower than the pollution emitted by conventional vehicles, and could be even lower as the electric power sector cleans up over next few decades, according to a new report issued recently.[read more]
Gasoline Prices in Week Before Labor Day Lowest in 11 Years
The U.S. average retail price for regular gasoline was $2.51/gallon (g) on August 31, the lowest price for the Monday before Labor Day since 2004, and 95¢/g lower than the same time last year. Declines in crude oil prices are the main driver behind falling U.S. gasoline prices.[read more]

Pitcher Plants in Horseshoe Lake
... looking from the side, I could see that it was like an umbrella. At one point I was right in the midst of the pitcher plants and a fly was buzzing around my head. I thought to myself that isn't a very safe place for a fly and that he would likely end up as lunch for one of these carnivorous plants. The sun was quite bright and there was no adequate shade, so after a while, we paddled back to the dock to finish our kayaking ...

Club Scout
Sorry, Cartman: South Park's been canceled. No, not the shit-talking Comedy Central show -- South Park Tavern, a Broadway bar that had housed a running theme night for South Park, the cartoon. But on August 13, the day after Mike Mastro and his three partners pulled the plug on South Park Tavern, they premiered the Cherry Pit in the same slot (60 South Broadway). As Mastro explains it, the owners were "right in the middle of discovering our identity. We had half a sports bar, half a club, and we decided to go for more of a club."
So they gave the place a new name, got rid of the sporty neon beer signs around the bar and added new hardwood around it, along with new carpeting and a few semi-separate seating areas. For example, directly back from the bar is a space where dark goth meets lounge plush, its black decor and pillowed bed overseen by a photo display of Louisiana grave sites. In the dance area, there's a new P.A. and sound system (a light-works update is coming), as well as a VIP zone with two roomy, half-circle booths. Other revisions to make the Cherry more tasty: a multi-tap bar setup that expands the beer selection, corrugated metal along the walls for a more industrial look, and refurbished seats in dark cerise. Mastro also promises that the club will maintain a personal-touch policy, with all four owners getting to know their customers.
Of which there should be many, because the Cherry Pit now features six nights of entertainment, with DJs rotating through most nights and more live bands planned for the future; respected goth artist Faith & the Muse kicked off a national tour here on August 30. Want your band to be among the first to play through the Pit's pristine speakers? Call Kim Sparks at 303-777-4200 (South Park Tavern's old number).
The End Zone, at 455 Havana in Aurora, isn't new -- owners Jeff and Susan Turner will soon see their cozy neighborhood bar turn sweet sixteen -- but after almost two months of silence, the bar is trying out another karaoke night. TJ's Showtyme will host the popular, sing-it-yourself activity on Thursdays. The club seats about eighty, with the rest of its 160-person capacity crammed between pool tables and a dart-board region. In addition to the karaoke trial run, the Turners will introduce live music this month, and they're looking for talent, too -- primarily solo acts, duos and trios that work in musical styles ranging from acoustic to rock and blues. Musicians looking to tackle the End Zone can call the bar at 303-364-6855 or e-mail email@example.com.

Introduction: The human amniotic membrane (HAM), a highly abundant and readily available tissue that may be useful for regenerative medicine and cell therapy. Aim: To compare two previously published protocols for the isolation of human amnion mesenchymal stromal cells (hAMSCs), including their phenotypic characterization and in vitro potential for differentiation toward osteogenic, adipogenic and chondrogenic mesodermal lineages. Materials and Methods: Human placentas were obtained from selected caesarean-sectioned births. Two different protocols (Alviano et al. [1] and Soncini et al. [2]) for the isolation of hAMSCs were performed. After monolayer expansion of adherent cells from both protocols, the cells were characterized by flow cytometry and for multipotentiality, as assessed by their capability to differentiate toward adipocyte-, osteoblast- and chondocyte-like cells. Results: Both protocols yielded hAMSCs that showed plastic adherence, fibroblast-like growth and well-defined human MSC markers. The cell yield and mesodermal differentiation capability of hAMSCs were higher in cells isolated using the Soncini protocol. Conclusions: Our data demonstrated the successful isolation of hAMSCs from full-term placentas using two published protocols. Differences between the two protocols in cell yield and in vitro differentiation potential were shown.

'Rio' Remains No. 1 on DVD, Blu-ray Charts
Universal's "Paul" finished second, selling about half as many DVDs as the animated family feature.
Despite several high-profile new releases arriving in stores, the animated family feature Rio, from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, remained the country's top-selling DVD and Blu-ray Disc its sophomore week.
Rio, which grossed more than $143 million in U.S. theaters, encored at No. 1 the week ending Aug. 14 on both Nielsen VideoScan's First Alert sales chart and Nielsen's dedicated Blu-ray Disc sales chart.
Finishing second on both charts: Universal Studios' Paul, a $37.4 million-grossing comedy reuniting Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) as two comic book geeks who go on a road trip with an alien. Paul sold about half as many units, overall, as Rio during the week, although the Blu-ray Disc version sold 84 percent as many copies as the Blu-ray of Rio. Not surprisingly, 49 percent of total unit sales for Paul came from the Blu-ray Disc, while for Rio the percentage was just 29 percent.
Debuting at No. 3 on the overall sales chart (and No. 6 on the Blu-ray Disc sales chart) was Sony Pictures' Jumping the Broom, a comedy starring Angela Bassett that earned $37.3 million in theaters.
Jumping the Broom also debuted at No. 1 on Home Media Magazine's video rental chart for the week, chiefly because both Rio and Paul won't be available at Netflix or Redbox until a month after their release.
Jumping the Broom bumped the previous week's top renter, Soul Surfer, also from Sony Pictures, to No. 2 on the Home Media Magazine chart.
Soul Surfer – based on the true story of a young surfer girl who gathers the courage to go back into the ocean after losing her arm in a savage shark attack – dropped from No. 2 to No. 6 on First Alert and No. 7 on the Blu-ray Disc sales chart.
Your Highness, an adventure comedy, starring Natalie Portman, that made just $21.6 million in theaters, debuted at No. 4 on First Alert (No. 3, Blu-ray). Two other new releases, Walt Disney Studios' Fox and the Hound/Fox and the House II and Mars Needs Moms, bowed at No. 5 and No. 6, respectively, on the sales chart (No. 4 and No. 5, Blu-ray).

It is crazy loud, but what people didn't say in other reviews was how clear and full the sound was. I am blown away. I also got all day on a single charge.

About Me
Now as I work for some years and managed to have a certain security and living standard, I have also bought a new couch. The couch is 2,20 meters long and wants to be shared with friendly people around the world!
December 2009 - December 2010 my friend K. and me travelled around the world. Our route was:
Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Tanzania, Zambia, Botswana, South-Afrika.
Try to be a good person, not to cheat, not to lie. Show respect to any kind of creature, even if it is just a buck or worm which you can pick up from the road and bring it to a safe place.
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I have not much experience with couchsurfing.
I like swimming, diving, snorchelling, sailing and walking at the beach. I like to read about scientific topics like psychology, biology, philosophie or just new recipes in a cook book. Nature, animals and plants I prefer most of the time, but it's also great to be in a bigger city for some time. What I do not like are noisy motors, motorbikes and cars which are polluting our environment and take life-quality from us (the worst example for me is Jakarta where you cannot breath in the streets).
Countries I've Visited
Bahrain, Cambodia, China, Egypt, France, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, Jamaica, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Panama, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Viet Nam

I like makin' games!
Male, United States
Pinball games, video games, purposely stupid games- Programming and creating games is one of my favorite hobbies! Pinball is another one of my hobbies, (Though I don't own any machines yet) and my favorite multiplayer game of all time is Kirby Air Ride. Also, I'm a born-again Christian!

So it's basically just trying to play two different games at once? If I wanted to do that I'd use my iTouch to play flappy bird and my 3DS to play something else. There, now I've played this game!
I saw Robot Kremling Krocbot as one of the crossed out character names! It must be related to the unused animatronic kremling sprites found in the game.
Hmm, looks really interesting, I'm definitely picking this up if it's good! The programming aspect looks pretty cool, although the trailer didn't exactly make it clear how the game works, but I trust them enough to make sure it's fun.
DIY is easily my favorite in the series. I have no idea how much time I spent making microgames, but it had to be a lot! It helped teach me some programming basics too, and while I've since moved on to a bit more advanced things, (Like Petit Computer) I still occasionally go back to DIY to make another microgame. Plus, I use the music editor for a few things too. I've recreated a few songs, and I'm making the music for the Future Pinball game I'm working on in DIY.
Other than DIY, my favorite "normal" (If you can call any of the games that!) game in the series is easily Smooth Moves. Maybe it was because it was the first one I played, but I mean, it makes amazing use of the Wii Remote, most of the microgames feel totally unique, and the multiplayer games are amazing!
Even though I pretty much knew SmileBASIC wouldn't release today, I couldn't help but get my hopes up... Oh well, at least I know it's coming some time soon
@invictus4000 Yeah, that's what I said! It didn't seem like I said I hated people did it? Because I certainly don't hate anyone and I don't want to cause any confusion on that!
@technotaylor98 Dude, don't disregard the entire game because of this. It's not the main plot point or anything (The game practically doesn't even have a plot) and it's totally avoidable. Yes, it's wrong, but a lot of games have a little bit of sinful content that you should be able to see as wrong and just ignore. Of course, if there was an oversaturation of it, or if it was a big part of the game, that would be different, but as it stands this is just a dumb quick addition you can easily avoid. Plus, I don't think it's in the 3DS version. (Don't take my word on that though)
Oh my gosh, just...
Look, apparently this is becoming the norm nowadays, as much as I hate to admit it and as much as I disagree with it, so can you please stop reporting on it every stinking time a video game does it?! All it does is create controversy in the comments, and it gives a game news coverage that it didn't do anything to earn. I feel like a lot of devs do it now just for easy publicity, because they know if they do it, a bajillion news sites will report on it. Even though, like, it's basically absolutely not new at all and we've already seen it a billion times now.
I might just get this, especially if my cousin decides to pick it up, too. Would really enjoy playing it with him.
Well, I have the YouTube App, and I don't think Nintendo will force me to get rid of it or update it, so once Nintendo's next handheld releases and my 3DS is obsolete, I guess I'd like to try some of this stuff out. If Nintendo does force Google to update the YouTube app though, I hope they also force them to make it actually good. Like, improve the video quality, and the fact it can't play 3D videos in 3D is ridiculous.
I'd love to get to try this. My brother actually did get to play on his trip to Japan, though! He said he ended up getting through the whole game! (After spending a ton of yen on continues, of course. )
A King K. Rool... COSTUME?!?!
What the- I don't get upset easily, but this really ruffles my feathers. I was really hoping he would be added, and voted for him, but now that vote obviously went to waste. I guess I'll have to vote for someone else now...
I was wondering why there hasn't been any Game & Watch cover plates or special edition systems, seeing as how the DS was inspired by the multi screen games, and that it would just look awesome! This looks cool, albeit really bulky, but I'd consider buying it if I had a New 3DS.
I'm kind of glad Nintendo is trying to make Miiverse what they want it to be, instead of just letting it become totally different and not at all unique. All the things people won't be able to on Miiverse as much anymore, (Chats, roleplays, big discussions) are all things you can do on any regular ol' forum. Hopefully after the update it will become significantly more unique, more game focused, and less cringeworthy.
So Mabel is going to be in the next Disney Infinity then?
Seriously though, lots of good choices there. Robin Hood, Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Goofy, are other really good characters. Would be nice if they a all get in eventually.
My brother actually got to play this while he was in Japan. He said it was pretty fun! It'd be cool to see it come to the west, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
Since my watch fell into a black hole a few months ago, this might actually be a nice repla-
This is unbelievable news... My prayers go to his family, and Nintendo. He will be missed so much, and I don't think any companies have ever had a better president.
This is the color I really wanted, so if I ever decide to upgrade, I'll get this. I still don't think I'm going to upgrade though, I'm perfectly happy with my XL!
Well, it certainly looks nice! Now I just need to wait and see if the gameplay is any good.
Yeah, I've gotta admit, sometimes while fighting as Greninja, I enjoy hitting opponents with that taunt!
Um, this doesn't have spoilers for someone who hasn't seen series 8 yet, right? Because I want to watch that trailer, but I haven't seen series 8. Why it isn't on Netflix yet, I don't know.
When I first saw this, I was kind of hoping it was a Spelunky clone. I love that game, and I really wish I could get it on my 3DS! Still, with it getting a review this good and only being a couple bucks, it might be worth a shot.
Super Mario Sunshine 2 confirmed!!!!
Definitely hyped for the movie, but obviously I'll most likely pass on this game. It just looks like your average platformer. Would be great if it turned out to be something really good though!
Wow! I can change the color of the roofs?! SOLD! I'd better get this for my brother and sister too!
Aaaaaaand, no SmileBASIC... Whelp, time to wait another week...
One thing I noticed was that when it zooms in on the Pro Controller, and pans around, you can tell it's just a flat image, not an actual 3D render.
@MightyKrypto Nintendo has come up with that technology! It's called a "Super Guide"!
Oh boy, I hope this is true! I don't care if it's DK or not- Whatever it is, I'm sure it will have an awesome soundtrack!
(Please be Kirby Air Ride 2 even though that makes absolutely 0 sense!)
Everything is nice except for the 30 post limit. I don't think it would be a problem for me, but I can imagine some people would hit that limit every day. The two minute wait was fine imo. Hopefully when SmileBASIC comes out it won't become a problem for me, as I plan on posting a lot about that.
I only have 50 coins left, so, unless they do a last minute flash sale on games, (Which would be kind of dumb) I'm not getting anything else. I'm happy with what I was able to get, though!
Aweome! I'd love to be able to get a picture of Reggie or someone with my Gameboy Camera!
The App Store is definitely inconsistent. This game isn't allowed, yet Super Bros. was on the App Store long enough to make it to the top chart!
The whole game was basically Super Mario World assets with the eyes edited out.
Nothin' for me... Well, except the Smash controller, could come in hand- Wait, it's not free?! Why? They already developed it for Smash 3DS, and it's not like it comes with a game or anything... Whatever, I usually have Smash 3DS in my 3DS anyways.
Still waiting for SmileBASIC, as usual. Seems like it's coming pretty soon!
Ugh Nintendo, why would they do it so early on a Sunday? I'm going to be at church, and it will become even harder for me to concentrate if I'm wondering what this video is going to be about. I won't be able to stop thinking Kirby Air Ride 2 will be announced either. (And if that does happen, I want to find out through the hype of a video, not just get home and see an article saying it was announced.)
Loved World of Goo and Little Inferno, so I'm really looking forward to this!
@RantingThespian Good point, actually. Can't believe MYST didn't come to mind until I read your comment, as I used to play it all the time when I was younger, and it's actually what my username originated from! Definitely should be in there.
I personally hate this update, and I don't even follow many people. If someone posts more than two things between times I check Miiverse though, guess what? I have to go to the page of every person I follow, which is just slow and clunky. Most people are saying it hasn't improved load times either. I really hope they fix this by making it optional.
Dear Nintendo of America,
Seriously, I thought this was going to be all over the states, and was really looking forward to it since my Best Buy usually holds the E3 events. I would have loved to give it a shot, but I'm not driving all the way to New York just to try something I'd probably lose anyways... And why are they only using the 3DS NES Remix? That seems like a weird decision. Plus, if that's all they're using for qualifying, why on earth are they only doing 8 locations?! It can't be hard to send a 3DS or two to 100 or 200 different locations... Oh well...
Even if it is real, it probably wouldn't be customizable. It would probably just be the generic Mii Brawler/Fighter/Gunner. That said, I would love to be able to buy customized Mii Amiibo!
So, Myst books?!
Sounds good to me. I definitely know what he means when he says a lot of Nintendo's different programs and things were like patchwork. Club Nintendo seemed really disconnected and clunky the way you had to link it to your system, for example. With the Nintendo Network, they've definitely been improving on this.
All I know is that when this video releases, I'll be scouring it for ANYTHING that could hint a new Kirby Air Ride. In fact... Reggie is wearing pink... Kirby is pink!.. KAR2 CONFIRMED!
Aww, man, I hope this doesn't mean there won't be a full Lego Doctor Who game, because I've been hoping there would be one ever since Lego Doctor Who was announced. This all still awesome though! Portal, Doctor Who, Lord of the Rings... Must... Resist... Buying!..
Didn't anyone else see Super Bros. on the App Store? I spotted it on the top charts before it was removed. It basically used all Super Mario World graphics, but with all the eyes edited out, and Mario had a top hat. I'm not kidding here.
My best Kirby memories are about Kirby Air Ride. (Gee, who'd of thought?!?! ) It started... Probably around the game's launch. I don't remember why exactly, but I wanted to actually buy the game with my own money, which is something I didn't do very often. I can't really remember what compelled me... Maybe I saw a commercial, maybe the ability to fly excited my obsession of flight simulators, maybe I had played the game at a friends house, I'm not sure. Thankfully, in this case anyways, it was also a time where I didn't really care to go online and check out the reviews of a game; If it looked fun, I just went out and bought it. The earliest date I know I had the game is November, 2007, when I wrote in my journal and proclaimed myself the "Kirby Air Ride Champion" for beating my friends at City Trial three times in a row! Memories include just laughing and having fun with my friends, causing rage among each other, playing around in City Trial free run with my sister, and countless other one-time moments, like the time my sister and I had a perfect tie in a race, (We literally had the exact same time, down to the hundredths!) the time my brother accidentally wiped all the game's save data, or the time the secret chamber in Castle Hall opened with all ups, and I got them all! Besides that, even after all these years, I still make new discoveries. It wasn't that long ago that I realized you can spin to avoid getting hit, or how to float up to the rooftops without a star, or that the air ride machine formation event isn't actually completely useless. Top all that with the memories of constantly hoping a sequel will be announced, the hype I had for Smash Run, (Which I had predicted. I was saying "I bet they'll announce City Trial for Smash Bros.!" as a joke, because I never actually thought that would happen!) and how angry I was when Rosalina's reveal trailer wasn't Kirby Air Ride 2. This game is chock full of fun memories for me, and will always remain my favorite multiplayer game! (Until Kirby Air Ride 2 comes around!)
