New toy and another late to the party entry


Posted on 08/12/2020 at 02:28 PM | Filed Under Blogs

I'm up for island hopping pretty much any time I'm on. I'm all set on all fruit, Courtney Yarger set me up the first day I was online. And I usually leave my gate open when I'm not doing something that won't let me have it open, if you want to pay me a visit.

Yep, 400 square feet is a tiny house. This one was once an old farm shed. Think of it kind of like the first house you start out with in Animal Crossing, lol.

It's not the difficulty, it's the space. My house is only 400 square feet and currently has way too much stuff in it (everything I had at my grandmother's that I had to move out fast when my uncle put her house up for sale, plus everything I had when I moved in). So the older consoles are boxed up and in the loft until I get a corner cleaned out and can set them up.

I, too, am an encyclopedia nerd. I also miss the old card catalogs in libraries.

I played both Where in the World and Where in Time and had a lot of fun wth them.

Oh, wow! I got a Switch at just the right time! I'll be getting Pokemon Snap! I have a copy for the N64, but since I never got around to hooking that little thrift store find up, I never got around to playing the original.

Stores couldn't get them in, is what Bull Moose told me. They only got five in on Monday, and I grabbed the last one at 11 AM yesterday (Tuesday). As they don't open until 10 AM, my guess is that the other four sold on Monday. As for the price, it was Nintendo's standard MSRP of $399.99, so no deal. But since I've seen used and refurbished ones going for more than that, I don't feel at all bad about it.

I'm enjoying the story, and the gameplay, now that I've gotten a little more used to it, is kind of fun. The camera issues are a pain in the butt, and I do wish the contols were tighter and more intuitive, but hey, it was a gift, so hard to argue with free.

Feel free to make game recommendations. Because I hadn't planned on getting one (until AC came out and everyone I know started posting about it), I'm not all that familiar with what's out there. I made a list from a couple of articles, but I prefer getting my game recomendations from friends.

Yay! I have a list of friends who want to play with me!

I couldn't believe I found one, and in the color I wanted. I just stopped in to Bull Moose on a whim, and there it was. It was meant to be. I'm still giggling.

Saturday evening, provided the LAN adaptor comes in on Saturday like Amazon promised it would. I'm so excited to play AC online line with you, Chris Yarger's wife Courtney, and a few other friends. A couple of whom I didn't even realize 1) played video games, 2) had a Switch, and 3) play Animal Crossing.

I have spent probably far too much time playing AC the past two days, but I don't care. I need the escapism it provides from an insanely busy summer at work.
