As I write the title, I find it clever. But I’ll probably wake up tomorrow and wonder what I was thinking.
The often happens when I wake up beside an ugly chick.
Hah just joking, I don’t sleep with ugly chicks.
ANYWAYS.
Last weekend, I had my ASP.NET 4.0 open…open to the first page. I was ready to study and then play Zelda: Ocarina of Time. And then two of my friends tell me they’re coming over. Well, not that rudely….but yes, they were gonna come over. Well, one of them only stayed for a short while and the other one hung out a bit, he played Marvel VS Capcom and we watched some Young Justice. Around 10pm or whatever, we decided to play the new Super Mario Bros. on the Wii. I thought it’d be fun and a good game to kill some time but with 3 (or 4) people, it’s actually REALLY fun….we played til 3:15am before calling it a night…..I ended up sleeping at 6:00am that day.
Anyways, yesterday (Sunday), I was aching to play Mario alone…while it’s not as fun, I’m going for everything (cuz I’m a perfectionist). I’m at World 2 and half way to 3. I have 75 lives, accumulated over the 1.5 worlds…and I’ve gotten all the secrets and stars so far (3 stars per level)…I don’t move to the next level until I’ve gotten all the stars!
Anyways, my plan is for that game to be my new “pick up and play” game…whenever I have time, but don’t want to spend too much time. Eventually I’ll finish…there are 9 worlds so I figure a few more weeks or months.
I also tried out Zelda: Ocarina of Time again…I drew a picture of a Classic Control on my notepad so I could draw (actually, map out) the buttons described in the game (described for the N64) to the Wii classic controller. Because when they say Z, I don’t know what that is. Or ^C or C> or <C or VC I’m like “huh!?” so it’s confusing. I started a new game over and I plan to play it more…when I have more than a small amount of time, I’ll play that.
So my Wii has gotten more use the last 3 days than the last 3 months. Kinda kool, it’s not a terrible console…nice to actually use it again. I hope to get more use out of it in the future but Wii’ll see.
u c wat i did thar!?
I find this is the way I am with the Wii as well. It sits for a few months then gets a solid 5 hour session then goes back in to hibernation. I used to think of it as a huge waste of money when I first bought it. But I’m over that now (thanks a lot to modding it and SMB) and it’s become a go to “I’m bored and I have no cooler games on xbox or ps3 and the people that are here suck at good games anyway and it’s raining” toy.
The Wii gets used everyday as a scale for me and Pooky. As for playing games, I’m stuck on Fire Emblem, trying not to lose anybody and get all the items possible. Almost made it last night and then lost a guy. >_<
