Currently trying to see if I can add countdown timers to each conference.

edit: "Access Restricted" for one of te easier countdown timer sites on the internet. Thanks Proboards.

[pichubro]

Bethesda starts in four hours on the hour.

[Mario the black knight]

Nintendo World Championship 2015 was exciting

It's gonna be a hard show to top

[Mario the black knight]

The live uplink has broken down! :niggasad:

Part of the moving process?

[pichubro]

Accidentally bumped the cable and my laptop lost power, I'll get back on soon once I get more packing done and my brother stops getting in my way.

[koi]

Time to finally use my Twitch account. I haven't used it since the livestream for P4DAN and Persona 5.

[Mario the black knight]

You can also use Youtube, since Sony is the only one that matters

[pichubro]

You don't really need a Twitch account to watch streams, only to use the chat. I can't believe they didn't turn off the chat during the Bethesda stream The chat was off during the NWC.

[koi]

Yeah, Youtube's easier because I just realized I no longer have the app on my phone and I do not remember my password.

[koi]

I like how we finally can play Mother 1 without some online emulator. I most likely will never get a Wii U, though to download it. Just about none of the games on there I care about.

[Mario the black knight]

I'm sure when they realize everyone else feels the same way, they will port it to 3DS like they do with everything else

[Mario the black knight]

I promised myself I was gonna go to bed earlyish tonight

I even resisted playing Agar as long as I could.........but I couldn't resist the calling to be champion :niggasad:

[pichubro]

It's my fault

[pichubro]

Need to get in the mood

[pichubro]

Okay, this is pretty cheesy but it got me excited like early 2000s range because I wasn't using the internet to find the dates.

[pichubro]

OMG it's on YouTube! Hahaha

youtube.com/watch?v=OZJw9sbOTsc

I miss G4 and how unapologetically nerdy it was for a tv channel.

[pichubro]

My brother laughs at people wanting a FFVII remake, but keeps insisting that the new Doom is amazing. I don't get his logic. He states "you can already play FFVII, just play the original."

Like WTF

[pichubro]

Oh god Microsoft's stage is so small and stupid with that table in the middle of the audience.

[pichubro]

Buzzwords drinking game right here

[pichubro]

Keiji Inafune is making an Xbox exclusive game?! How much money did they give him?!

[pichubro]

They have a car on stage now for Forza, Microsoft just throwing all its money towards sponsors.

And thye have Henry Ford III here too...

[pichubro]

Dark Souls 3 rumors were right and got like no response from the crowd. Xbox...

[pichubro]

Beyond Eyes and Ashen look really good, I hope they make it to PSN.

[pichubro]

30 Rare games on a single disk, I thought they were gonna announce a new game...

Edit: nevermind, pirate mmo thing that almost looked like Banjo artstyle.
