Quote from: retro junkie on Today at 03:59:16 PMI remember paying $149 for mine way back after the release. I wanted the yellow one so bad. And this color was the only one available. It is a nice size for the console. Price increases really hurt.

How did you end up getting yours for $149?  The MSRP was $199 from launch.  That's an amazing deal!

@Mai Valentine  --> You know... I completely forgot there was a Pokémon Anime from the 90's.   I never did watch it but remember it was a thing (now).

The Pokemon Winds and Pokémon Waves games look interesting.  I like the look of the water landscapes.  I also really liked Zelda Wind Waker (though... I initially hated on this game hard before it was released).  Once I played that game, I really dug the style.  The screenshots didn't do it justice.

While this isn't the best deal I've seen, it is one of the better deals since the price increase of the Nintendo Switch Lite --> Turquoise $210

I wonder how much more life are in these.  I do like the smaller form factor

General Discussion / 30 Years of Resident Evil
Last post by BLUEVOODU - April 21, 2026, 08:21:22 PM
As of march 2026... this marks 30 years of Resident Evil.  Time is sure flying.  I've never been the biggest fan of the series, but This is significant and games are still being made.  I have purchased and played many of the games back in the day... with the Gamecube games making the biggest impact and being my favorite.  The gamecube versions were highly sought after and are still sought after.

One story from the years of playing, @SpartanEvolved and I used to play Resident Evil 5 or 6 on Steam together.  There was this scene where you had to run down stairs.  I was using a keyboard and mouse to play... and it is literally impossible to make a few turns on the keyboard... you literally had to use a controller.  We were trying to 100% Complete the game and couldn't finish because of that issue LOL  :))

Also - Resident Evil Requiem is a new game that just came out for the 30th anniversary... and is out now.  Here is the Resident Evil Requiem topic (click)

What has been your experience with Resident Evil over the years?  Thoughts, comments... post it up!

Last post by BLUEVOODU - April 21, 2026, 08:11:18 PM
Resident Evil Requiem is the newest installment to the Resident Evil Series.  This game came out in March.  I noticed several playing it on Steam... and was curious on the game.  It looks interesting... especially one of the features --> players will be able to freely switch between both first- and third-person perspectives throughout the game.

There are also Amazon Exclusive and also Deluxe editions available.


Amazon Link (Steam Code Link as well:
https://amzn.to/42mHiIs

Features of the game:
  • Preorder now and receive exclusive two-sided poster at launch - 2/27/26. * poster included in game package.
  • Grace Ashcroft, an FBI intelligence analyst who is introverted and easily scared, representing a new type of character for the Resident Evil series. Grace will experience horror from the same perspective as the player as she learns to overcome her fears throughout the course of the story.
  • For the first time ever in Resident Evil history, players will be able to freely switch between both first- and third-person perspectives throughout the game.
  • An Anniversary to Remember: With March 2026 marking the Resident Evil series' 30-year anniversary, Resident Evil Requiem marks its own milestone in the franchise.
  • Pre-orders for Resident Evil Requiem are now open, with the bonus of Grace's costume: Apocalypse. Please note that the picture weapon does not come with the costume, but it can be obtained in-game.

Personally, I will be waiting until the game comes down in price. Have you had the chance to try this game out?  And / or is it on your radar?  Thoughts, comments... post it up!

This was the first year that I can recall that it passed without any acknowledgement, no pranks, no jokes. I almost forgot about it and remembered late at night what day it had been.
