100,000 Pokewalker watts in 65 days and the absurdity thereof
Using the Pokewalker included with Pokemon Soul Silver/Heart Gold unlocks courses, which let you obtain different Pokemon/items with the device. For the heck of it (and some amusement) I wanted to see how long it would take to unlock the last course at 100,000 watts, and it took me from March 14th to May 18th. I don't engage in many endurance ( Read more... ) -
Espgaluda II and Localization Fortune
I imported the region-free Xbox 360 port of Cave's vertical shooter Espgaluda II two months ago and I still don't entirely realize how lucky we are. Overseas players had no way of playing it after its 2005 Japanese arcade release, and after years passed I never figured it'd get a port, much less a region free one! The title and its genderbending ( Read more... ) -
#65: super sf4, week 7 of pokewalker, 71111 watts 1460058 steps as of 12:30 am
• I have apparently logged 36 hours in the past week playing Super Street Fighter IV. I'm sure a chunk involved leaving the system on but I wouldn't have spent so much time if I didn't care. That said, I can't shake the feeling that this title plays it safe. More is the name of the game and additional characters/ultras/tweaks/online modes bring ( Read more... ) -
killswitch engage / dark tranquillity / devil wears prada / otherwise live, march '10
I enjoy seeing how bands' styles and songs transition to live performances. I've been a fan of metal band Killswitch Engage for almost four years now but I've never been able to catch them in concert. I was fortunate when they were touring nearby on March 3rd, and established band Dark Tranquillity's support provided even more to look forward to ( Read more... ) -
#63: c-c-c-combo, week 5 of pokewalker [52093 total watts this past midnight, 1103153 total steps]
Amid recent occurrences I'm glad to have what I have. Seeing folks stranded at airports makes me feel lucky to be where I'm at. Here's hoping things clear up ...
I've been experiencing The Worst Internet Ever, being a fake DJ and increasing numbers, catching up with folks, and leapfrogging from game to game. I think it's been about six months ( Read more... ) -
#62: figures/arcade infinity, week 4 of pokewalker, 45269 total watts at 3 am, 967226 total steps
I have things to recount but I can't do them justice right now. Yet summarizing March isn't difficult: amid minor setbacks like having failing net and struggling with writing, I'm considerably lucky. I could elaborate. But instead, I'll post a set of twenty-five silly photos spanning toys, food, amusing juxtapositions, and Arcade Infinity:

I actually don't have anything planned and since I'm on Mobile LJ I'll just write briefly ( Read more... )
