happy black history month! while nh was a start at introducing hairstyles that weren't pin-straight animesque, i hope the next game adds more because inclusivity matters (a fade with the bell symbol! beaded braids! bantu knots! dreadlocks in different lengths!). even better would be to have them at start instead of slapping them in a 2.0 update
#dude a fade with a bell symbol would be so cute#and hard agree with the rest of the ask too#acnl#acnh#animal crossing#ac#new leaf#new horizons#animal crossing new leaf#animal crossing new horizons#animal crossing pocket camp#acpc#pocket camp

Do people still play ACNL, the servers will shutdown in march so I'm trying to see if I could visit or trade with people. I'm looking for a lovely bed and series in general and black roses. I have all fruit and a bunch of fossils and bells I can help people with. Comment here or pm me if you want to play together!

controversial opinion but i dont think my game should crash when i bump against my ds............
I just spend 1.5 hours farming over 200 bells in acnl and wanted to take a photo with my phone and accidentally bumped it against the ds and lost all progress because "the game has been removed" why is this thing so flimsy

@ animal crossing anon, i had the same reaction but also mike being a new leaf girlie is so so real. especially when i remembered the acswy party is supposed to be born more or less the same year as me like yes of course he loves new leaf. i bet he would go to the island all the time and play the game where you hit the lawnmower with the whack-a-mole mallet thing. he probably antagonizes rover on the train ride over at the beginning. he’s simply based and isabelle-pilled.
HIIII it’s thea and all of the animal crossing talk was my influence 🫡 especially new leaf (i have the special edition acnl 3ds xl and have around 450 hours on new leaf)!!! nothing but respect for miss isabelle in our house. he absolutely loved the island you’re so right!! also #2 #me he had the bell boom ordinance on until he made his fortune and paid off his house and finished his island and then he changed it to the night owl ordinance so that he could actually properly play and have his shops be open. i have Many thoughts about this actually

so I’ve been playing acnl for like two weeks now. it’s been super fun and I even figured out a trick to catching bugs on trees. but the thing that stands out to me the most. is that everyone is SO GODDAMN NICE. I’ve only interacted with two real people. one let me take whatever fruit I wanted from their town and then donated 50k bells to my bridge. the other one I just met on Club Tortimer and they GAVE ME A MILLION BELLS???? JUST OUT OF NOWHERE??? THEY DIDN’T EVEN WANT ANYTHING IN RETURN??? whoever said video games cause violence never experienced a total stranger wearing a halo and Hawaiian shirt run in circles, accidentally scare a moth you were trying to catch, and then giving you a million bells for no clear reason.
also if anyone wants to be friends my town kind of sucks right now but I have pears, peaches, bananas, lychee, and durian and weirdly good luck with rare bugs. like I’ve already caught three or four bird wings and just caught a golden stag and I haven’t been playing more than two weeks. my friend code is 2251-9734-0905. you can dm me your code if you don’t want it floating around the internet.
#acnl friend code#acnl#acnl community#if anyone was wondering what the big trick is#dig a hole in front of the tree#the hole is the same length as the net#so when there’s a bug there#just sneak forwards facing the tree directly until you can’t move forwards any more#and you should get the bug#it’s easier on the island because there’s less trees

3DS Retrospective Part 1: Memories of the Past
Since the 3DS eShop has now closed and the online is shutdown, I thought I would take the time to look back at some of the games I've played on the 3DS!
This handheld was a huge part of my childhood, and I still play on it to this day. It deserves a very long retrospective from me for being in my life. I would love to come back to this in the future and smile at all of the memories I once experienced.
I have to thank my dad for introducing me to Nintendo or I wouldn't be here right now blabbing about this. He truly was my number one supporter in my gaming journey back then. I’ve played a lot of games so this will be long aha (sorry....thank you for reading this all if you do!).
Part 1 is under the cut!
Animal Crossing New Leaf
One of my absolute favourites on the 3DS! Love the music and gameplay and practically everything about it.
I remember going with my dad to my local Target to buy ACNL around the time it came out. I had my red 3DS with me, ready to play it as soon as I got back into the car.
I was so excited, I remember rushing to the 3DS section and instantly taking the game off the shelf while my dad was chasing after me. We went back to the car after he paid for it. I couldn’t wait to open the game, and I think I remember my dad going “open it already”.
Which I did!
Unfortunately for me, there was no game cartridge inside there. The staff forgot to put it in after we paid for it, and we didn’t even notice.
I told my dad and he was saying we could come back tomorrow because we were already far from the Target.
I was so sad about it that my dad turned around and drove back anyway lol
Once we finally got the game cartridge, it was time to play!
In New Leaf, you get to name the town you’re moving into. I didn't know what I wanted to name my town so I asked my dad. He said Knin, a city in Croatia where he comes from. I put it as my town name while asking him how to spell it.
Unfortunately I lost pretty much all of my games a few years ago, including this one (they were all in this giant yellow case and I can't find it, weep). But I do have screenshots! They're super nostalgic.
I loved the Southern Islands the most, the minigames were a lot of fun and listening to the cap sing was so cool. I never skipped his songs, I never knew you could (unlike some people).
You could even play with people from around the world with Club Toritimer that cost like 50 medals to obtain. I remember working hard to gain so many of them—all so I could go to the International Islands!
And hoo boy, I have a story to tell regarding this.
I went to the island and there were these people who were talking about giving bells. I stared at them, not wanting to interfere with what was happening.
One of them dropped like 50,000 bells, and I remember staring at it in awe.
Guess what I did?
I ran to the bells and picked them up into my pockets like any sane person would. I ran away while the others chased after me, yelling at me to stop. I clicked on the button to get me out of the island and that was that—I was a thief!
I can't believe I would ever do such a thing, stealing bells like that! I don’t even remember why I did it! I was really something as a kid.
I even ran into one of them again after a few weeks on the International Islands and I was so scared they would yell at me. They didn’t seem to realise or they just didn’t care, but I ran off anyway.
Tomodachi Life
I love this game.
I remember making myself, my whole family and other random characters and friends on my island! I used to spend hours on there, utterly immersed.
My brother and I used to play together since we only had one copy and things always went awry because of it. Case in point, let me tell you some things that I remember occurring.
My cousin married my old childhood best friend, which was flipping funny to my brother and I from memory. I told my cousin and she looked at me as if I was crazy and you know what, deserved
I didn't want a boyfriend in game at all, and somehow I never managed to but my brother decided to go behind my back one time.
I came back to me having a boyfriend and the game already saved. Once you save, that's it. Unless you had an action replay or something, you were screwed and stuck with whatever happened.
For those who have never played Tomodachi Life, the Miis can have dreams while sleeping. Some were interactive, allowing you to do things in the dream—those were the best.
You would also get an item relating to the dream, so it was always worth checking them out. I think it was one of the main reasons why I played.
My favourite dreams were:
The Transform (Superhero) where the Mii character says "by the power of (insert item)" and they just transform and say some random advice. Every time I looked at one of my Miis dreams, I always hoped it would be this one.
The Hide and Seek one where there are two Miis and the seeker says "are you ready?!" and the hider goes "not yet." and it just repeats and repeats until you exit. My brother and I used love copying this dream a lot lol
The Giant, where a Mii is sitting at a cafe in front of a closed window and the window blinds open to show your face using the inner camera and the Mii freaks out intensely lol
Of course, we can't forget that you can make songs! I used to love this feature. I was a kid, so I just made my characters swear lmao or sing about weird things.
I unfortunately lost this game, so all I have left are screenshots and my own memories….
I currently play the Japanese version on my 2DS since the European version I had installed stopped working for some reason. It’s good practice!
Bring it to the Switch Nintendo! please I beg I'll do anything even sell my brother why not
Pokémon Alpha Sapphire
My favourite Pokémon game! I love everything about this game, hands down one of the best remakes ever made.
I remember getting this for Christmas back in 2014. I woke up at like 4:30am alongside my brother (for some reason) and we went downstairs and started opening presents.
At this point, I already knew what I was getting. It wasn’t much of a surprise but I was so excited none of the less!
My dad who was awake at the time said "what the hell go back to sleep", and that we did. We went back to our rooms with our presents.
Fun fact, my brother got this small car while I got a whole 3DS game LMAO
When I woke up again, I instantly turned on my 3DS and started playing. A few weeks before Christmas, I got the guidebook for ORAS (I still have it actually!) instead of clothes like my mum wanted me to lol
I used that guidebook throughout my playthrough, and I managed to beat the entire game in one day which is seriously impressive, I could never do that now
I loved soaring the most, it was such an fun feature! Soaring through the skies with Mega Latias and exploring Hoenn...I can hear the soaring music even now. Take me back...
Secret Bases were the bomb, I remember always looking for those little holes around Hoenn and seeing how much space there inside them was with Hidden Power. My Secret Base was at Route 119 right before you enter Fortree City, at this grass bush.
I remember that you could buy decorations at Mauville City, and you could even get special ones on a Saturday.
I transferred my level 100 Sylveon from X to this game for some reason, I think I wanted my beloved partner with me but it wouldn't listen to me for the entire game lmao
The only reason I beat Steven back then is because Sylveon finally managed to listen to me and land an attack on Mega Metagross, which obviously died immediately upon impact lol
Good times.
Pokémon X
I remember getting Pokémon X because my friends had Pokémon Y and I wanted to play with them and be cool but I didn't remember they had Y at the time so I chose X lol
My old childhood best friend gave me a shiny Haxorus at my cousin’s birthday party when I showed him how I had the game and was stuck in Reflection Cave.
I loved all the customization, the music and just the entirety of the game! Probably my second favourite overall!
My favourite town is Lumiose City, it was so fun to skate around and explore every nook and cranny. It’s literally amazing how well they were able to make it.
Especially the sketchy alleyways, I used to always go through them all and then get lost because I don't know where I landed lol
I know how people didn't like the postgame (or how little there was) but I really liked it! Working with Looker and meeting Emma and her little Espurr Mimi....good memories!
I remember when I found out about Sylveon, the new Eeveelution in Gen 6, I knew I had to have one. I remember searching up how to evolve Eevee into Sylveon on Google, and it said it needed high affection.
So the new Poke Amie came in handy. I love Poke Amie so much! My favourite minigame is Head It, I can't believe they removed them after Gen 6, they were so fun ;;
But I wasn't sure how much hearts I needed for my Eevee so every time it tried to evolve, I would spam B to cancel it, I was that afraid of not getting Sylveon lol
I did this until I had full affection and then I let my Eevee evolve and I was so happy to see a very cute Sylveon! I checked again after and you only needed three hearts at the end.
This Sylveon was the first Pokémon I ever got to level 100 and it had Dazzling Gleam, one of my absolute favourite Fairy moves. The same one I moved to Alpha Sapphire I just talked about lol
Sylveon has been in my team ever since (had one in Gen 7, 8 and 9) and I plan on keeping it that way! Pokemon Legends ZA was announced and you bet your butt I'm going to have a Sylveon in my team.
The ost is so nostalgic to me. Lumiose City always makes me stop and reminiscence...
Yo-kai Watch
I love this game so much!
Technically this was my brother's game back when, he was the one who wanted it initially but I used to play it all the time since it was there.
The music and story is really good, I'm sad it kind of flopped overseas because it's really popular in Japan. Another reason to go to Japan....one day
I really like Komasan, just a cute Yokai that says "oh my swirls!".
My brother was the real pro at this game, I remember he used to mock me because I couldn't beat a boss that looked like some crazy doctor. He nearly finished the entire Medallium and got all the legendary Yokai which is rather impressive I might add!
(Unfortunately that copy got lost so he uh…lost all that….aha)
My most favourite part of this game is Terror Time. It happens randomly at night where the clock stops and you get transported into Terror Time. It's like a nightmare where you have to escape at the exit without getting caught by any oni minions otherwise they call Gargaros, the main scary oni. He was real powerful and strong and kicked your butt when you get caught.
I would also put away the clock and just run around at night on my bicycle hoping Terror Time would come. If I stopped randomly and I can't move, that meant it was Terror Time. I live for that thrill.
My brother used to be so afraid of it while I begged for it to happen. Every time it did, he'd give me to play so I can get him out of it.
Please localize the Yokai Watch 1 Switch Port I beg Level 5. It wouldn't be that hard. Pleaseeeee
Paper Mario: Sticker Star
I know most people don't like this game but I really like it! It was my first introduction to the world of Paper Mario.
I played the entirety of it with my brother and it was a lot of fun. I was the main person who actually played, my brother was moral support as we tried our best to beat the game!
I loved collecting all the stickers and going through all the worlds to get the royal stickers. I remember the beginning where everything is destroyed, and you have to save all the toads from being stuck in various places.
There was this one toad where for the life of me, I could not find. I looked everywhere and it just did not exist. They hid them too well, I'm afraid.
Fun fact, at the end of the game when you have to use Kersti to beat Bowser, I cried. For like three days lol. I didn't want to use Kersti, she was with us for the whole journey and I grew attached to the floating sticker.
Like I was full on crying in bed when I remembered using her. My brother didn't even give a damn.
It was sort of sad, wasn’t it? I finally got over it and used the flying sticker to beat Bowser up with my brother by my side. When we beat him, we were so happy.
I miss those times when my brother and I played games together, we don't do that anymore...
Pokémon Dream Radar
I remember buying this game when my dad put $50 on my account and I didn’t know what to buy. My friend recommended it and so I got it!
It was a very simplistic game where you would use the 3DS camera to shoot at these little energy balls to collect points and catch Pokémon.
You could even transfer them to Black 2 and White 2 after, which I always did with my Black 2 copy.
You could get the Forces of Nature (Thundurus, Landorus and Torandus) from this game, I believe it was one of it's main reasons for existing (but don't quote me on that one). As you play through the game, you upgrade your equipment and get closer to meeting them and of course, catching them!
I think I managed to get only two of the three back then.
Professor Burnet is in this game actually! She's the professor we're working under. I remember being so shocked when I saw her in the Sun and Moon anime. I knew her back when she was researching dreams, hah!
And then you have to capture the Pokémon, which is a whole another story. You had to move around a lot and shoot a continuous beam of light until you fill the meter before the time limit. it was honestly tougher than expected, the dang Pokémon keep moving!
Colors 3D
This was a game I got because my friend told me to get it, like above.
It's a drawing application where as the name suggests, you draw. There is a whole palette with every colour, a few brushes and tools you can use at your disposal.
There is only 5 layers, which isn't that great in all honesty. I wish it had more, it would make drawing much easier.
But I still use it from time to time! I like drawing on there when I’m bored and don’t want to drag everything out. Doodling has never been easier.
My favourite part was the Colors 3D Gallery, where you could view art uploaded by other people. It was very simple, but I used to go on there all the time! Loading into the gallery is pretty nostalgic to me.
Everyone is so talented on there! I don’t get how people can draw such intricate things on a 3DS. I suppose it really proves that it’s not the brush that makes the artist.
You could also add someone else’s art to your own gallery to view and draw on. I remember saving Tokyo Mew Mew art and whatever I liked at the time to my gallery.
I’ll miss going on it (´ー`)
Mario and Sonic at the 2012 Olympic Games
I love this game. It’s my second favourite game in the whole series.
I think my brother got this game for himself, but I used to play it all the time because it was a lot of fun! Anyone could argue that the Wii version is better overall, but I think the 3DS version holds up well!
There were many events to choose from, such as water sports and equestrian! My favourite events were the Rhythmic Ribbon and Beach Volleyball! I was an absolute beast at Beach Volleyball, the one event I could beat at any difficulty without breaking a sweat.
Although you couldn’t choose any character for any event, as you can in the Wii version. Each event has a specific set of characters you can choose from, such as the girls or the heroes. Only four in each group and that's all you got.
I remember being disappointed a bit, since I was used to how the Wii version was.
Back then, I managed to get a gold medal for every event in the easy, normal and hard difficulties! I was as they would say, a pro at the game.
I think the story mode for this game is pretty decent, I remember beating the entirety of it. The end with Bowser and Eggman all powered up with the fog was actually pretty tough, the game let me pass because I kept failing the events over and over out of pity.
The records menu is the most nostalgic to me, the bgm makes me stop and feel things. I feel that a lot with those settings menus, their bgms are always so nostalgic.
I often come back to it from time to time but my skills have dwindled unfortunately…(blames my current 2DS for sucking and not me sucking lol)
Mario Kart 7
I know most people prefer any of the other Mario Karts, but I think this one has to be my favourite one!
I had a white 3DS XL that came with Mario Kart 7 pre-installed, but I also had the physical copy that my brother played with that I got from my birthday.
Emphasis on had. I have a story to tell here, one I’m not that proud of.
Unfortunately as a kid, I was way too naive. My old friend at the time wanted my physical copy in exchange for an eShop gift card.
Of course, that sounds stupid and I wouldn’t even dare consider it now. It was my copy!
I don’t know why, but I did. I think my reasoning was that I already had it on my 3DS at the time, and he was my good friend.
I think it’s one of the things I regret to this day, because I got legit scammed! The eShop card was used and it was only like $25?! My friend got a whole game and I got legit nothing!
To make matters worse, I didn’t even have internet at the time!
My mum got mad at me, and for good reason. I didn’t think I did anything bad, which probably made things worse. My brother was upset because he couldn’t play Mario Kart anymore.
Needless to say, I shouldn’t have done that. I remember regretting it after a while.
We got another physical copy at the end since my brother wouldn’t stop crying about it, but I learnt the hard way not to be so naive.
But anyway, back to the point.
I am an absolute beast at this game. I always beat my family when playing it. I love all the tracks, and pretty much everything about the game!
Rainbow Road is probably my favourite track, the 3DS version is so good! It is so big and immersive!
Sonic Generations
I remember getting this because I loved Sonic. I vividly remember playing it and showing my dad how fun it was.
It was one of the ways I could play Sonic, and it was also one of the reasons why I got a Sonic the Hedgehog emulator on my old laptop thanks to my dad.
I know this the console versions are better but I've never played the console version before. I think this version is not that bad as people claim it to be.
It holds up. The online on the other hand doesn’t, I’ll admit lol
I think I prefer the final boss here, I remember it gave me so much trouble as a kid (and even now when I replayed it some time ago aha).
The levels here are so good. Sonic legit has to outrun a killer whale, what more do you want? I used to replay them all the time!
Fast forward to now, and I just learned that one of the stages is from Sonic Rush that has the banger music. I didn’t know as a kid that Generations featured other game’s levels.
Pokémon Moon
I love Alola so much.
This game I got relatively late actually, during 2019! Why didn't I get Ultra Moon when it was right there?
I wanted to play the original before jumping into the sequel. I think I'm glad I did that, because I like Moon over Ultra Moon lol
This game is special, because it was the first game I ever completed the Pokédex on! My high school friend was the one who encouraged me to do it, and that I did!
I remember recording a video of when I did, seeing that 100% and getting that shiny charm felt so cool. This is one of the games that I still have to this day, luckily.
I always like to come back from time to time and see all my Pokemon, look at my beautiful party.
This game is also where I got my first shiny! I did the Masuda Method with the shiny charm and I managed to get Shiny Buneary in 64 eggs! I remember freaking the heck out!
I then tried to do the same for a Shiny Ralts, as I love how Shiny Mega Gardenvior looks like. That was an absolute failure and I was left with like 6 boxes of Ralts lmao
So I traded them all away using Wonder Trade! I wonder if anyone reading this got one, ehe.
New Super Mario Bros. 2
This was the version I played the most out of them all. I really like this one for how fun it is and the whole coin idea!
My brother and I used to play this one together, alternating levels and having our own saves. Honestly, one of the reasons I was able to beat Bowser at the end is because of this:
The Gold Super Leaf, making you practically invincible. Mario would turn into a white raccoon and no enemies could kill you. You still can die to lava or if you fall, but otherwise...
Cheating but not really cheating. Perfect if you suck at the game.
This would appear if you kept failing a level over and over, and I used to use it without a second thought. I would like to try to beat the game again without the use of this one day!
Super Pokemon Rumble
I loved this game so much as a kid. It was probably one of the first spinoffs for Pokemon I played!
I remember getting to the very end of the game, but never beating the final level???? I think I didn't have strong enough Pokémon for it, or I just didn't get around to it. If I ever do find my old copy, I'd like to finish the game.
The music is really good, I really like Toy Town and Axle Town! They're really nostalgic to me, I remember running around in them and healing up my Pokémon at the Dewdrop Fountain that was in the middle of each town.
The Toy Shop was objectively the best part of it all. It was where people from Streetpass would come to your shop and buy some toys. If enough people bought toys, then something special would happen in game. I believe it was that special Pokémon would appear and could be collected.
We need a remake of this Game Freak, i beg you
Pokémon Rumble World
This is more of a recent game I played, but I absolutely enjoyed it.
You go on these air balloons to various places to collect all the Pokémon! I remember downloading it because i enjoyed the original and this one had even more Pokémon to befriend!
This one unfortunately uses gems as a currency for in game purchases. It’s not needed to play the game, but certain things are locked behind them that help you catch Pokémon.
For example, there’s a stop mechanic that costs two gems to use. It's real useful.
This allows you to stop at the place you want—otherwise it’s random chance. At first, it was hard getting to the right place. You had to pray that it would miraculously land there.
And there was no way in hell I was going to pay for gems just for this one game I played from time to time. The eshop was going to close anyway, so there was no point.
I have a modded 2DS and I found a cheat that gave me max diamonds…you can guess what I did. For legal reasons, this is a joke and I would never do such a thing no wayyyyyyy....
With that, I was able to catch every single Pokemon available in game! It’s my greatest achievement probably, and one that I will flex on you all right now:
You can't get any more than 719 Pokémon. Try to beat that LOL
Probably my greatest achievement ever.
Nintendogs + Cats
I loved the original Nintendogs, so I had to get the sequel as a kid as soon as I found out it existed. I still prefer the original, but this one is still pretty fun.
I had a very cute dog that I took perfect care of. The walks were the highlight of the game, in my opinion. It was sort of an upgrade from the original, although the original always clears.
I have a story with this game as well, also concerning my old childhood best friend. I know, you're wondering how did so many things happen to me lol
Back then, I used to bring my 3DS to my cousin's birthday parties so I could play with said friend. We would sit on the couch right next to each other and get lost in our own world.
One time, it seemed that I dropped my copy of this game during one of these parties and my friend picked it up. He told me that he had it and that he’ll give it back to me at primary school.
That never happened and its been years since then. WHERE IS MY GAME DUDE?! I WANT IT BACK
So I got scammed and my game stolen by the same friend...maybe if we ever meet again, I'll demand for it back. Get some retribution for all the sins they've committed against me.
I hold grudges man and I HOLD THEM HARD
Animal Crossing Happy Home Academy
I actually got the set that came with the Amiibo reader since I didn’t have one. I still have it somewhere, but I don’t think I ever used it.
This was dubbed my brother’s game, and so he got to play it first.
I remember being upset because my brother chose the boy avatar, because I didn't want to be a boy when I would play.
I was smart and simply dressed up his character as a girl.
I put on a wig and a skirt, and boom! Girl character! It was the easiest way instead of nuking the whole save file. When my brother would play, he would make his character look like a boy again.
This game is pretty simple, but it’s a lot of fun! It’s no wonder they did it again for ACNH with the Happy Home Paradise DLC. I still think I prefer this one over the DLC.
Decorating houses for the villagers, especially the ones you like the most is the best part. I remember spending so long trying to get everything looking perfect and beautiful.
I managed to finish all the buildings you could make in the game, I was so happy to see Digby and Isabelle here!
Super Smash Bros For Nintendo 3DS
My brother got this game as well, but of course I played it way more than he ever did.
It was my first introduction to the series! I absolutely loved it, fighting as characters I love! I am a huge fan of fighting games in general, so this was right up my alley.
My mains were Rosalina and Luma, Zero Suit Samus, Zelda and Peach from memory, I became really proficient at using them all. My favourite stage was the Tomodachi Life one, since the Mii's you had in your Mii Maker would appear inside the apartments.
The 3DS version had Smash Run, one of the best modes ever if I do say so myself. You had to collect items to improve your stats so you can beat the final boss at the end! It was timed and honestly harder than you would expect.
It was a multiplayer mode but I used to always play by myself since I had no friends to play with aha
I remember always getting the same kind of stats and wondering how all the COMs were able to get such amazing ones—cheating I say!
Skylanders Giants
I remember vividly buying the game at Target. It came in a large box since it had the portal and three figures, as you can see above!!
I wish I could play this again, you need to have the portal and figures, and the portal I had is gone ;;
I remember being really invested in this game, playing through it and admiring how cool it looked! The story was pretty captivating.
My favourite Skylander is Chill, always loved her design! I actually broke the figure by accident, the ice spear she held fell out of her hand aha
I have a story to tell that is somewhat related to this game.
One time, I lied to a friend of mine that there was going to be a new Skylanders game after Swap Force that allowed you to use the figures on any game, particularly on Spyro’s Adventure.
My friend was stuck on the final boss in Spyro’s Adventure and I was a terrible person to make up such a story. I don’t even know why I did that, I think I got too excited making it up….
The worse thing was that they believed me completely and even told someone else about it because I told them to….
I’m sorry…..
Cars 2
You’re probably wondering, why did I play this? Well, my brother got it since he was a huge fan of the Cars franchise, but he barely played it.
And guess who did? ME BECAUSE HEY A GAME AND I LOVED CARS 2 AS A KID
It was pretty fun! There are many modes in this game, but I mostly played the Mission Mode as you could choose from any level you wanted (of course, warranting you played it in the main story).
Holly was the person who greeted you in this mode, and she was my favourite car back then. I always tried to play as her if I could since she was the only girl car playable in the game.
My favourite levels was the ones at the party in Japan, where you first play as Finn McMissle and sneak through the party without being caught by cameras or by Lemons. It was such a thrill, I became a pro at it!
Then you would play as Mater, rushing to the fountain before he overheated after trying Wasabi for the first time. That one was way harder than it seemed, the meter went down way too quickly so if you weren't fast enough, you fail.
They were the best levels, alongside the ones at the Oil Rig. Anything with Finn McMissle was a banger. He is a super cool spy car after all!
New Style Boutique Fashion Concert Demo
I never had internet when I was a kid or much money to buy many games, so I used to download demos. You never say no to free things.
One in particular is this one here!
There were two demos you could download for the game, the Fashion Contest and the Shopping Experience but I always preferred the thrill of being in a contest over simply dressing up your character.
I would like to introduce you to this one guy named MC Mode who is the contest official you see every time you play!
I loved this guy as a kid, not because of how he looked or anything. I liked this one specific dialogue he would say.
GO BE FREE MY BEAUTIES
It's not even that funny but it always amused me for some reason. I would even voice the line with a low voice. Every time I loaded up the demo, I always hoped I would get this.
You could tell by the opening lines of his speech, if he doesn't ask for the audience to turn it up a notch, then it would be the other dialogue that was in my opinion, boring as hell.
I have specific outfits I use for every single theme that always gets me to 1st place in most cases. That’s how much I used to play it.
I remember playing this demo with my cousin quite a bit because she liked dressing up games and this was the closest I had that looked appealing to her.
We used to get mad at the demo when it gave us the same theme over and over. The themes are randomised every time the demo starts, and can’t be influenced too much.
Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance Demo
Probably my favourite demo of all time. I remember downloading this when I scrolled through all the available demos to download.
It was my first introduction to the Kingdom Hearts series, although I didn’t get into it until way later in 2019.
I loved flying around as Sora! The controls are a lot of fun, and you get to explore most of Transverse Town and beat the boss there! It was a giant monkey that was kind of a pain to beat.
I remember I used to always procrastinate actually beating the demo in favour for exploring. The controls were so interesting and I really liked how Sora could summon his little Dream Eater friends to help him out while battling.
With that, Part 1 is complete! I've played more games than this, but these are the main ones that I've made fond and not so fond memories with that I wanted to share!
I hope it was an interesting read! This took me forever to write. I feel like you can learn a lot about me.
Part 2 and Part 3 will go through more of the inbuilt software! I hope to see you over there too!
