Nintendo - Switch 2, Switch, 3DS, and Wii-U / Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave -...
Last post by BLUEVOODU - Today at 05:11:10 PM
It's been awhile since I've played a Fire Emblem game... and Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave for the Nintendo Switch 2 is looking pretty good.

It looks like this game is going to be $79.99.  However, Right now, Pre-orders are looking to start at $69.99 on amazon. This is the digital price and Amazon is honoring the digital price for the physical game.  There is also a Physical Special Edition (Dagdan Collection) for $119.99 ... that comes with a steelbook case, character art cards, a map of Dagda, and an artbook.

Single Player
Release Date: September 17, 2026.

Game Details:
  • The Heroic Games are about to begin!
  • Enter the Dagdan Empire—a prosperous land ruled by the gods—and compete in the Heroic Games for the chance to be granted one wish. Powerful fighters from across the land have gathered to participate, including four heroes whose fortunes are tied to the fate of the world.
  • Play as Cai, a young boy determined to win the games to save his imprisoned father; Dietrich, a swordsman ever on the hunt for a stronger foe; Theodora, a queen seeking to fulfill the long-held dream of her homeland; and Leda, a musician with her sights set on revenge. The stories of these four heroes are key to this time-traveling saga of strength and steel.
  • Guide your heroes to victory as each weaves their own tale
  • Prepare for each match of the Heroic Games by exploring Dagda and its capital city of Dagsion. Learn techniques and hone skills at the training grounds, recruit allies and build bonds of friendship, and explore beyond Dagsion's walls to gain experience and strengthen your forces in a variety of ways. How you spend your free time is up to you, but the tactical matches of the Games themselves will put your preparations to the test. Use everything you have at your disposal, including your heroes' special abilities, to turn the tide of battle!


Is anyone looking forward to this title?  What fun have you had with Fire Emblem games?  Thoughts, comments, post it up!

@CreepinDeth @targetrasp @SpartanEvolved and @retro junkie  --> I called this... it sounds like the current RAM prices might become the new norm and not drop.  This has happened in the GPU market.  I guess we will see what would happen if people stopped buying.

@BLUEVOODU
if anybody wants one, better start stocking up on wads of money now. Might have to run the bundles of money through the hay baler just to keep it together.

LOL Nice @mastermario  --> I would go to see them as well

OK... I just bought Terminator 23 in 4K/Blu-ray (double pack) for like $10.  I was hoping to get it cheaper, but a 4k and Blu-ray double pack for $10 new is probably the cheapest I'm going to find this. I was tired of streaming services always offering Terminator 1 but never Terminator 2

Also, I bought a DVD collection of Dark Skies Season 1 (the only season).  It was an X-files type show back in 1996 that aired.  I missed it the 1st time around.  It is interesting and we are currently on Episode 4.  There are parts that are not super polished.  It is pretty good for something 1996 and holds up well to the alien type stories, Roswell, JFK and other incidents.  I saw the creator on a Why Files Basement episode and decided to give it a shot for less than $20

Quote from: retro junkie on June 03, 2026, 03:45:11 PMwill all this effect the cost with $1000 becoming the norm for a game console?

@retro junkie - Well.... it looks like the increases are occurring for other systems. My guess is that... PS6 could even be higher than $1000

Also Check out these topics:
Steam Deck Price Increases
Steam Machine Prices

At this point ... the Switch 2 is now becoming the cheapest console AFTER price increases (IF not the cheapest)

Last post by BLUEVOODU - Today at 01:01:46 PM
Steam Machine pricing is now out and it seems to be higher than expected.  There were many unknowns with the disk and ram price increases.  There is also a waitlist which I am sure is long and the scalpers are out there as well.

Steam Machine 512GB                   $1,049
Steam Machine 512GB with Controller   $1,128
Steam Machine 2GB                     $1,349
Steam Machine 2GB with controller     $1,428

@SpartanEvolved and I have been talking about this launch, how hard it is going to be to get a Steam Machine for a while, and the price increases.   

Hard to believe this was announced last year already.  Check out @CreepinDeth's Steam Machine announcement post.   There was a lot of excitement around these launches.

Also check out the Steam Deck Price Increase Thread

Are you still excited?  Thoughts, comments, post it up!

@mastermario man... I don't know about that.  Social media has been in a dark place for many years now.    Musk's foray into social media hasn't really helped the cause... or at least I don't see it.  Chainsaw aside lol.

PC Gaming and Platform / Looking to Create an Automated...
Last post by BLUEVOODU - Today at 11:06:40 AM
There are some cool things you can do these days with automation.  I'm looking to create an automated Doom II server for chickendinnergaming.com as a side project that has all the files and automatically spins up based on certain details.  It would shutdown / destroy itself when we stop playing to ensure costs are minimal.

Time has been very limited this month.. but I think it would be a fun project.

Would you use it @mastermario @Grindspine @SpartanEvolved @targetrasp @Bomberman @Jack @Polygon @CreepinDeth @trkorecky ?  I think it would be fun to try to get Doom II multiplayer rocking again.

Microsoft - Xbox Series X, Xbox One and Xbox 360 / Xbox Nostalgia - NHL Hitz 2002
Last post by BLUEVOODU - Today at 06:49:52 AM
My buddy sent this to me yesterday.  It. Brought back a lot of memories:

https://x.com/Xbox_Nostalgia/status/2071441971202412807

We used to play NHL Hitz on the GameCube all the time.  It's one of my favorite gaming memories for whatever reason.  Even @Grindspine was in on it.  Everything was perfect, in my opinion, especially the Limp Bizkit Air Ride intro song (Rollin Rollin Rollin ... what?!)

I will forever hear the announcers call when I chose my players:
konowalchuk, Bondra, Jagggrrrrrr

Did you play NHL Hitz 2002?  Do you have good memories? Post it up!
