Anyone tried any of the Amiibo stuff yet? I'm guessing they work the same as the previous game with random drops. Is it worth it for those that have done it?

So there's this Joystick bundle they're currently doing where you can build your own: https://www.humblebundle.com/books/build-your-own-joystick-controller-make-books?hmb_source=&hmb_medium=product_tile&hmb_campaign=mosaic_section_1_layout_index_1_layout_type_threes_tile_index_3_c_buildyourownjoystickcontrollermake_bookbundle I'm very tempted to get it but I'm wondering if it's worth it? I like the idea of being able to build something like an arcade stick (even if it is cardboard - however I'm hoping one day I'd try making a wooden box to replace it instead).

I was surprised to see a new Oswald the Lucky Rabbit short that appeared recently but it only seems to be 1 at the moment? Are they planning to do more or have the archive on there?

Five Nights At Santa's

The other day an alternate version of Spice Up Your Life by the Spice Girls got released on their Youtube channel and I noticed how much better it seemed compared to the original. It got me thinking if there's anything else done by artists that you preferred the alternate version over the original one? Here's a few alternates that spring to mind: Weird Al recently released a coverage take version of his "Eat It" video: I also remember All Saints having to do a US version of Never Ever as apparently the explosions in the original video seemed inappropriate for US audiences:

I was pleasantly pleased that they haven't toyed too much with the styles, my first thought for Mario though is that he looks slightly like Fix It Felix Jr in the face which is ironic considering who he's supposed to be based on.

I was never crazy on Scooby Doo as a kid but I still had an appreciation for it. My daughter is also getting into it now, I showed her one they did with puppets, I think it's called "Scooby Doo Adventures: The Mystery Map". I haven't seen anything similar and from what I read it seems to be the only one that got released in that style. It's a shame as my daughter keeps asking for more of them and I end up having to show it on repeat for her 😕 .

So... I also noticed this series seemed to make bigger use of the ghost effects when they go through objects whereas I remember with the previous series' they did this in a more subtle way without showing much of it or the lack of needing to.

I remember also with season 1 it was hit bad by the writers strike of 2007 wasn't it? Hence the reason for very few episodes. I still remember being compelled to see what would happen once the season finished into season 2.

I was under the impression it's PC only going by their IndieGoGo page and the Linus video, I was hoping the same though:

https://3ds.hacks.guide/ This will get you started on how to use custom firmware for the 3DS. For the puzzles there's an application I found that can spoof coins which I ended up using to complete the puzzles.

I imagine it's probably easier to get the remaining pieces with custom firmware now, that's what I eventually ended up doing.

I noticed how slim he looked when he was in Black Widow, but didn't think it was anything related, such a shame .

I've never known plasma lamps to go out like that, I'm only guessing the gas has gone, although I'm not sure how that works. The other thing I did originally was I stupidly blew the original US adapter so I've always used one of those adjustable AC/DC adapter things which seemed to be ok. I guess general wear and tear made it go.

Speaking of the merchandise, I imported the US edition that had the plasma lamp almost 10 years ago and only within the past year made use of the lamp with my new desk...only to find yesterday the plasma/gas suddenly disappeared so only the blue LED's work. There's already a blue only LED switch so they work the same way now! Totally gutted though as I remember paying a shitload for the FedEx tax and the hassle to get it imported as they didn't ship to the UK.
