The off topic thread 3.0

Speaking of game shows I got an audition for Hard Quiz haha should be a bit of fun.

Good luck with that.

The only game show I would watch occasionally is Family Feud. Grant Denyer makes that show for me, he has always seemed like a nice person.

Wait, difficulty modes? While I admit that was a consideration, wasn't Charizard the most popular because of its concept alone? The fact that it got all the best stuff only cemented its reputation (You got a Shiny Charizard Cruyff?! Lucky!)


I went water starters in every generation but 6, where I went Delphox (of course Gen 6’s starter just happened to be the OP one of that gen.


That said, I have to admit Gen 2’s starters are considerably lame in comparison. Singular types, nothing really standing outside of appearances… they don’t really have a lot going for them.


I’d saw Swampert is my all time favourite of the starters. Absolutely awesome and was a beast in its time.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

You'll care when it lets you fly manually above Hoenn and encounter Pokemon and other things.

Best feature ever. I don't even care if Fly is faster, the sheer freedom and fun of it all to fly in day and night with a Lati? Awesome!

I think he meant the actual cards, not in game.

That's also what I meant as well, lol. Probably should've said Holo Charizard. That thing was the envy of everyone at school.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Did I just step through a portal...

Fair enough.

Didn't realise the holo charizard was rare. Everyone seemed to have one at my school.

Only one kid at my school had it. We had all the others, but the shiny, sorry, holo Charizard was rare as, well, at least it felt rare back then. Certainly awesome though. I think the guy in question had an Edition 1, so that's probably it as well.

 

[SM]

Yeah I thought shiny Charizard was pretty common.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

Curious question, did anyone actually ever play the card game? Or just collected them?

 

[Loonerty]

How good were Tazos? Wish they'd come back.

Yeah I played it a bit when I was a kid. Liked Yu-Gi-Oh too.

Just collected. I don't think anyone I went to school with actually knew how to play it

 

[Fryer Tuck]

Ah yes, and there was Magic as well, which funny got more popular in secondary school. (Then again, both Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic were very popular in secondary school)

First series of Yu-Gi-Oh was a classic, and then it got crazy, lol.

Yep, loved the first series of the show then it got weird. I saw the other day it's up on Netflix, might revisit it.

 

[Quivorir]

Dungeon Dice Monsters from YuGiOh needs more love imo.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

Yeah, it was mostly for collecting purposes, though I was with a group that knew how to play all of the card games, so that was great. Personally, I like playing the games just as much!

To think it was simple with Egyptian God Cards, and then subsets upon subsets, and then the whole 5D thing (CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES), and then Number Monsters, and then two more series… it’s whacked.

Oh geez, you remember that still? I can barely remember the first two episodes. Poor Duke Devlin.

I vaguely remember the eps, but I remember spending countless hours on the GBA game of it even more.

Yes!! I remember that too haha.

Wait, there's a GBA version of Dice Monsters? I only know of the Championships and the RPG version of the game, and the many other minor versions with little varation.

It looks horrible by today's standard, but it was quite fun back then.

Alrighty, going to do a bit of searching around then. Never knew there was an actual game of it that came out.

 

[Cooldude]

I always went Cyndaquil, too

The only time I went water starter is black 2, I think (which I think had the best starter designs since Gen 1, the rest of them are pretty shit). I cannot say no to Oshawatt

Card games are serious business man
