Yay, it was kind of funny I was thinking about writing an entry about this and I went to check and its already been released to the scene. I am quite happy today about that.
I was way more excited about this coming out then Final Fantasy IV
I think I spent over 6 hours today trying to beat the First Izuna.
Its been on my DS for a very long time, and I recently just started picking it up just to see if I could beat it again.
Could I? No. I couldn't.
The last level I was at was 60 when I first started to pick it up again Im not at 76 and Im still having trouble beating it. Im surprised I didnt get bored trying to.
I figured maybe a little leveling up would help me.
Of course not. I guess I'll just have to keep trying. No matter how much it kicks me in the ass.
I think im on the last Dungeon which consists of 39643064 dungeons and the farthest I've made it is to 16 where i just promptly die.
On another much different note, Im looking at the release list of DS games and for the hell of it I just looked at the release list for the PSP and its weird how different it is, there are several games that come out every week for the DS, but the PSP is lucky if they even get one release that week.
If anyone was watching the Microsoft E3 coverage you might remember this little number.
The concept of the game is to basically do a bunch of mini games in front of a video camera that is going to be coming with the game, Which are later combined to form a movie.
Wow, this looks too familiar to that failure that the PS2 tried to come out with...
What was it called..? Oh yeah the Eye Toy.
Whats worse is that they went so far as to demostrate how it worked.
It doesn't start till about 2:22.
I remember just sitting on my couch going.. wow, they must really be desperate.
I guess every system needs to make a mistake somewhere along the line..
I think my tank is infested with lice, great. I might have to change my water tank tomorrow.
I was looking at my fish when I got home and noticed one of them bleeding by his gills then I saw something black attached to it, At first I thought maybe it was a scale that was just hanging off, but I thought how odd it was black.
So I tried to look as close as I could because that goldfish in particular was racing like a maniac.
When I got close enough I realized the scale was moving. So I knew it was some sort of parasite.
So I took my fish upstairs to the sink and scrapped it off with a toothpick, (that wasnt an easy task).
I checked all my other who seem to be in the clear.
But I dont want to take any chances. Im going to go pick up some sort of medicine this Friday.
Hopefully it will solve the problem.
About tha Insomnia thing I talked about earliar, I think maybe it was just the fact that either Im getting used to Tylenol PM, I bought a new brand today, that has 50mg of Diphenhydramine in every tablet, or I just didnt take my celexa with my sleeping pill yesterday, because I feel like..Im about to fall unconscious..
I stopped watching Zero Punctuation for awhile because his voice and his speediness started to get to me as being really annoying, but I had to stop and watch this because he happened to mention, 'Alone in the Dark'
He has a different intro, which I hope isnt the new intro, because the old one of random music was perfectly fine.
Anyway, I have to agree with his assessment of Alone in the Dark as being a complete piece of shit lit on fire.
Because I rented it on the day it came out, and then I promptly returned it the next day because I couldnt stand to play it anymore.
It was just that bad. Im not even going to go into specifics the entire game was horrible. Every bit of it.
Especially the level jump. Which I thought was practically suicidal.
You could skip all the way to the end if you wanted to.
But I didn't bother because I simply didnt care.
I think im getting insomnia. I have trouble sleeping at night even with Tylenol PM now.
I've been having trouble sleeping ever since I started this job and have been forced to turn again to sedatives.
I've found myself staying up till 3 or 4 am simply cause I cant sleep. This is becoming a vicious cycle because I sleep and end up waking up at 10:00am or so. Then going back to sleep, which is bad because I dont have an alarm clock,
but I do have to go to work.
PictoDS doesnt work on my system so when I was at Dan's house I tried to download and format as many mangas I enjoyed as I could. So that when Im done reading the mangas on my DS I can just change them for the other mangas I uploaded on my computer.
Im almost done with reading Shortcuts Volume 1. So funny, So, Dirty lawl.
Stop Tazmo also proves to be a good site to get mangas from. The only disadvantage is having to register.

Just a link im saving for me, also if you want free mangas. Check it out.
Ok if the Skin in the last entry wasnt a big clue,
Then well you missed it completely.
I bought finally a...
I bought it from Gamestop in Cranston for $117
Used because I still needed gas for my car. But it looks like its barely been used at all, it even.. smells new.
They had all the colors and I was really considering getting the metallic rose.
Its a darker version of the pink with a bit of shine to it.
But I changed my mind, I thought maybe it'd be nice to get a DS that wasnt just all one solid color.
So I ended up getting the Crimson.
I guess the color is somewhat important just incase my skin begins to tear or look old.
That way I always have something Shiny beneath it.
I found this site online while looking through an lj community. With these beautiful skins made by different artists and im definetely going to get one at some point next week.
Im really leaning on this one because it looks.. amazing.
There is also this one, that I think looks really nice.
While I was at it I might as well get one of my Ipod too.
Im thinking this one.. its a bit plain but I like the girl on the back..
The only reason im getting these is they look half way decent and I really need something to protect my DS.
My last DS ended up looking like shit towards the end because I had nothing to cover it, so im trying not to make the same mistake.
I also ended up getting a some Hori Filter protectors for extra coverage.
I was really surprised to see them at Target. But I guess Hori finally teamed up with Nintendo and they are developing an American version.
Hori is supposedly the best when it comes to protection when using any sort of touch screen product.
I'll check up in like 4 months to see if my DS still looks the same.
I kind of like that one too.
Anyway, Dan and I were at his house and I was browsing that website The Internet is Terrible
and we came across this comic called Shortcuts
It's from a hilarious little manga with a lot of dark humor and visual jokes.
So I wanted to download it and it just occured to me, I hate reading comics and such on my computer.
Can I read comics on my DS?
So I went online to search for a homebrew program and I found one called Comic Book DS
I was really excited loaded that up to my DS works perfect,
But then I tried to load up PictoDS on my computer (Its needed to convert the JPG files to CBDS files)
Doesn't work.
I keep getting this stupid error saying 'Could Not find the main class, this program will exit'
The error is from Java Virtual Machine Launcher.
I went online and looked EVERYWHERE for the solution to this problem and I have yet to find it.
Dan is trying to help me and even he is struggling.
I guess im going to have to stick with using Moonshell which is kind of a pain in the ass, because you have to constantly adjust the zoom on it.
If you know the solution to this problem please let me know! =).
I am definetely purchasing this skin.
I just don't know what to say about this..
There are just. No words?
or this..
this too.
Elvis
Ok I think out of all of those, this is the actual retard.
Only on the internet...
I'm not even going to bother posting Part II, yes there is a part 2.
This is annoying enough, I couldn't even stand to listen to 2 minutes worth of his incecent whining.
How dark, carnival games. wtf.
Cry more. Now Gtfo.
I wish this was fake.
I really like this art piece I wish I knew who it was by.

E3 08 officially ended today. But it left behind some very beautiful things I am looking forward to, in the next few months to come.
These are just a few, of the awesome things to expect within the upcoming year.
A Ds game coming out in September 2008 called 'My Little Baby' that ..starts out like this, i will probably end up downloading it just to answer the WTF? question in my head.
Princess Debut a ds game coming out this year that I would also try just for its WTF value.
I love Grand Theft Auto so naturally I am excited, but also skeptical due to the past GTA's that were portable, and ...well horrible. Guess we'll just have to wait till Winter to see.
When I first heard of Runefactory, I got really excited because I thought I love Harvest Moon, but this would be a Harvest Moon with some RPG in it and it was fun at ..first, till the battle system totally kicked my ass, and I deleted it...forever. RuneFactory 2 may show some potential if it has hopefully fixed its battle system.
Masters of the Monster Lair, a dungeon crawler for the DS, which I would normally despise, but this seems like it has some possible potential. Worth a shot at least.
What's cooking with Jamie Oliver, I have this fascination for DS cooking games I dont know why, especially ones with gourmet recipes. Like Gourmet Chef.
Cooking Mama is good too, with the sound turned down.
The music can REALLY get annoying.
As much as there are a lot of games I cant wait to try for the coming year, im kind of disappointed about this E3, it was the first one I watched yet I feel like, im still waiting for something else? FFXIII coming to the Xbox360 is great.
But I think that was the only great thing. The only really great thing. Everything else was good, but .. not great.
Particular Nintendo's conference, it was just kind of... blah. The majority was about ..statistics and then a little bit of game content. Very little on the DS.
Its ok this Tuesday should cheer me up, with the releases of Izuna 2 and Final Fantasy IV.
A lot of things are dumb and these are just some. ..Didn't mean for that to be a rhyme.
Tongue Rings, I am not sorry, but they look like shit, I don't even think the hottest guy or girl could make this work.
No matter how good they look, its just...pointless. At least with pierced ears you can look somewhat attractive.
A tongue ring just gives you a lisp and something to lose when you swallow.
Back Tattoos, Why of all places would you put it on the small of your back, Are you trying to be sexy or something?
It seems to be a popular place for a lot of women. That picture brings me on to another dumb item.
Why is it that when I type in "Second Life" into Flickr. I end up getting virtual porn instead.
Oh thats right, maybe because thats where people who are serious losers in real life go to find fake paradise.
This 'cutesy' little picture is called 'Band Camp' ...hah. -_-
I think im going to love Quantum of Solace and I love Daniel Craig, but im not loving either of them in this DS game.
Looks like Pixels threw up all over it.
Remember that guy who played Screech on 'Saved by the bell', that guy who came out with a sex tape, that guy who tried to sell t-shirts online to save his house. I couldn't even remember his name, I had to type screech into google to find it. Dustin Diamond. I can't stand him. I saw him on Celebrity Fit Club, and he was always bitching or whining about SOMETHING. Hes so ugly I wonder how many people bought that tape...
Wait I dont understand.. he has a foundation but yet he cants afford to hire some decent web designers?
Youtube live blogs, If they have a name I could careless, they are all made of fail.
I've seen ages ranging from 67 year olds to as young as ..12 year olds and they are all failures.
They are either talking about their day at home, or what happened that week, or their opinion on current events..
Anything that will bore you to tears.. I've yet to see a decent one.
Example A. This picture, hes trying too hard, and he is so not hot.
I dont know if this classifies as being dumb but I do know its horrible and disgusting.
I can at least say that much about it.
People who drink and then brag about how much they drank or the fact that they got drunk.
What are you trying to prove exactly? Just the fact that you fell down the stairs and pissed on yourself?
Wow, your too cool for school. Drink and drive yourself home.
Guitar Hero, I dont know whats so addicting about this game, admittedly some of the music is good, But the majority of it I've never heard of not to mention the repetitiveness and the annoying pictures everyone takes of themselves with a guitar hero guitar, as if to say im officially cool ,and I have an excuse to hold a guitar..
Lemons, I think they are disgusting. The only things I have that has lemons in it is Dels Lemonade and my Fish and Chips.
I hate them in my water, I hate lemonade. ( I like Dels because you can barely taste any lemon)
I hate them in my food, I hate Lemon Squares. Fuck Lemon. ... and lime too.
I never did my Summer Reading, I had this rebellion against it, because they always gave us these books, that were boring as hell and never could keep my attention. Unlike now. Now they actually have books that might keep you up at night, ones of this century. That they can read. I always use to read a description about the book online, and skim through a few pages and write about the few pages I read.
The Nintendo Press Conference just concluded.
and I have to say I wasn't really... impressed.
They had a lot of new and innovative things to add to the Wii, but as far as the DS.
They showed mostly statistics, and 3 new games.
For the Wii,
They had
Animal Crossing for the Wii (Probably more of the same from the DS)
Motion Sensing accessories for the Wii controller, this can detect how your wrist moves its more accurate more percise.
Along with the release of Animal Crossing Wii, they are going to be shipping a Wii Speak speaker, so you can talk to your friends while showing them your house or something.
Shaun White made a surprise appearance to show off his new Snowboarding game made to play on the Wii Fit.
Last but not least for the Wii they had what was suppose to be a 'big annoucement' that Mr. Miyamoto introduced.
Wii Music
a game if you want to call it that where you can make your own music, make your own videos, without even having to know how to play.
Now for the DS they had really 3 new games. Thats it.
They pretty much squashed all those 'New DS' rumors.
Which is a shame I'd really like to see something like this come out..
But at the same time its a relief because I dont have to wait for something new to be released I can just get the DS lite now.
Anyway onto the new DS Content -
Not very exciting
An American version of ..Pokemon Platinum.
Another Guitar Hero game called Guitar Hero Tour Decades. *yawn*
Probably the most surprising and exciting news. A GTA for the DS. Grand Theft Auto ChinaTown Wars.
Though we've seen previous Grand Theft Auto portables so im skeptical. A custom engine taking place in modern day Liberty City. They were really vague on details, they just pretty much introduced it and thats it.
I won't be able to see the entire E3 Conference today, but I will catch up on it later and continue to update on details as they come along.
