I have to go to Gamestop and cancel a Pokemon X Preorder

Ouch.

[Police Girl]

Ouch.

They really should have online cancellations for things I ordered online for in-store pickup.

Its not because I won't be able to afford it, its just that I got a better deal elsewhere.

[Sakura Leic]

Ah I see, I usually don't do preorders anymore.

I wish my room was bigger.

I have a bookshelf toward the foot of my bed, a closet behind it, my brother's bed on the other side, a chair that has clothes hung over it, nightstand, drawers and some boxes that holds our games/comics. Posters rolled up, contained, and placed at a corner of the room, then another closet, more drawers and some other minor items about the place.

A couple bins under my bed that has old GB, GBC and GBA game cases (for nostalgia), and it also holds my various old artworks and comics from when I was small. Those bins are pretty much nostalgia boxes.

... It may sound like a huge room given all the stuff I have about the place, but it's actually really cramped. If I had a bigger room, maybe it wouldn't look like such a pigsty...

[Police Girl]

Ah I see, I usually don't do preorders anymore.

I don't either, only on stuff I really feel is worth Preordering.

Well, actually figure buying is almost based entirely on preorders. Its tough to get figures otherwise. Well, most anyway.

I've preordered on occasion. VLR came with a Limited Edition watch (truthfully, I probably would have preordered even if it didn't come with a watch because I'm that in love with the series).

Etrian Odyssey IV came with a preorder artbook and soundtrack CD consisting of outtakes and drafts (the previous games in the series also came with artbook/CD combo). Atlus is [tornado fang]ing awesome, as basically all their games come with bonuses like these.

Preordered KH3D from Newegg only because they had it $10 off the regular price (wasn't quite sure if it would be worth it at full price). Preordered the 3DS and also The Avengers Blu-ray 2-disc combo.

I think there are some others but that is most of my preorder history. Most of them being 3DS games, oddly.

[Sakura Leic]

I got boxes and an egg timer at IKEA, next time I'll get a book shelf and oven mitts.

I only preordered Pokemon X because I wanted to get that and force my Uncle to make up his mind and get Y.

I preordered it again because I had forgotten about the Gamestop Preorder and NewEgg had it for 36.99 while my Gamestop order was 42.19 or something.

Also Preordered Tales of Xillia and Graces f because of Preorder bonuses.

I preorder if games come with neat bonuses really. Like DKCR, that came with a Banana-shaped Wiimote holder thing. I use it for spare change.

Just caved and ordered a Mewtwo plushie from Amazon, after doing some price comparison elsewhere.  It's going to take a while to get here, as it has to cross a very big pond, and then the continent.

[irgpie]

i get back on the computer and literally within the same second my skype goes from the auto-away to online, my friend calls me. why does this keep happening. he seriously has some sort of precognition honed in on me

[Quickman]

He could simply be stalking you.

Watching.

Always watching.

[irgpie]

i asked if he had literally been sitting there watching my status icon for a few minutes until it turned green, but he had just finished a League match as I came on.

i'm really starting to think it's some subconscious force at work that just made me finish up my own game at the same time as his.

[Phi]

some people just can't get enough of the irgy

[Police Girl]

So after that terrible streetpass I got another one from some person who lives in Colorado.

And they had been playing Animal Crossing so I got to see a different house.
Cool beans.

Once you get the StreetPass data, you get to visit their town whenever you want?

if i were a bit more egotistical i'd be tempted to immortalize this true statement in my signature

ah yes streetpass. one of my friends has passed someone in school numerous times called "Open legs"

[Sakura Leic]

I finally finished putting the boxes together.

[Police Girl]

No, their house gets put on display at the Happy Home Showcase.

ARGH. The only Lua wrapper for Game Maker is outdated and no longer functions in the version of Game Maker I am using. THIS GAME IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE CONTENT CREATION DAMNIT, AND I CAN'T DO THAT IF ALL OF THE ALTERNATE SCRIPT LANGUAGE DLLS WON'T WORK

I may not understand game design but that sounds horrible.

[Suppercut ♡]

Basically... you remember Megaman VX, right? Still working on that (and no, it's not because it's legitimately taking long... it's because I'm working comparably slow ). I mentioned content creation. You know, custom singleplayer/co-op campaigns and the like. I figured the best way to do that is use gmLua, a Lua interpreter for Game Maker. But it's outdated. Looked it up, there is no other DLL. So I sprung for other odd languages. Python's DLL is outdated (and regardless would still require the user to install the libraries if they even wanted to play the game period ), C/C++ is outdated, and Delphi, I think, barely even meets what I need from it.

Let's face it. I can't write a whole new DLL to save my life, and I am not going to let any community deal with the nightmares of external GML editing.

[Sakura Leic]

So without this thing you can't make the Co-Op work?

[Quickman]

You want a serious workout?  Try walking around on all fours.  I don't mean your hands and knees, I mean your hands and feet.  Afterwards, you discover muscles in your legs that you never knew you had.

[Sakura Leic]

Oh god I can believe that, Crab Walking is even worse.

[Quickman]

My thighs are sore as hell from doing this bear/monkey walk around my apartment yesterday.
