Luigi's Mansion was Added to Nintendo Online was added on October 30th to the Gamecube library.

This was one of those titles back in the day I was not sure that would be good.  I ended up enjoying it immensely and it became one of my Gamecube favorites.  Not sure I'll get much playtime on the Switch Online Gamecube library, but this game is definitely worth a play.

Interesting.......................the XBOX 360 was the first console to flip me to the Microsoft side.  :))

My guess is that Xbox will be done... writing is on the wall.  Maybe they'll release a generic Steam Box like console for Xbox here and there.  With Costco and others starting to slow down and stop selling the Xbox, the writing is on the wall.

Further writing on the wall - 2 major flagship games are now on PlayStation5:

Arcade / Re: Ms. Pac-Man

That's awesome @retro junkie - it was a great game.  I have so many memories with the arcade game that I consider is somewhat of an essential game these days.  However, I need to find it for the Switch.  So far, looking for Ms. Pac-Man... it doesn't appear to be offered for the Switch.  The Namco Museum doesn't appear to contain it

General Discussion / We are nearing 10000 posts!

Pretty crazy. This coming Jan / Feb - 2026 - there will have been 8 years of Chickendinnergaming.com

As I mentioned from the beginning, we are here to stay.  Many more improvements have been implemented this year and more are being planned moving forward.  We are also looking to bring back the podcast... a lot of information gathering and pieces are coming together right now.  More to come!

We could actually hit 10k posts this year if we could make about 40 posts per day.  IE - If we could get @targetrasp @Grindspine @mastermario @Mai Valentine @Kinikko @CreepinDeth @retro junkie @Jack @Snatcher_L @MegaDrive20XX @Bomberman and myself to post 3-5 messages per day (8x5 = 40 message per day, more posting = less per poster)... we could cross 10k this year.

You know, we haven't heard from @chrishicks yet... maybe they could join in as well.  I'd love it if we could get @Strubes @trkorecky @Polygon in on this... as well as @AngelBob and others.

There are many avenues for our attention these days and attention is more divided than ever.  It's been an awesome 8 years.  I'm glad to have you all continuing to be a part of this community. 

Thank you all for being a part of CDG!  :great:   Here's to many more years.

General Discussion / The Concert Thread
Last post by BLUEVOODU - November 20, 2025, 06:35:14 PM
It's time to start the concert thread.  For some reason, 2025 has been a concert year.  I've been to at least 2 concerts - more on that later.

What concerts have you been to, are you planning to see and are looking forward to?  This is the concert thread!

Post it Up!

Awesome - So... what song is on right now?   And... I dig classical music.

Quote from: CreepinDeth on November 19, 2025, 10:43:02 PMI've also been listening to the soundtrack to the DanDaDan anime. Very fun and catchy.
I will have to check that out!

In terms of Dream Theater... The last few albums weren't my favorite.  The new one rocks pretty well... Midnight Messiah is awesome. My son and I just went to the Dream Theater concert in Columbus, OH last month.  They played all Parasomnia... and it was awesome. Then they played tons of older selections like As I Am, Peruvian Skies, Take the Time... it was amazing... 2 hrs and 40 minutes of just Dream Theater playing (no opener...etc) with 1 20 min intermission.  I'm going to create a concert thread lol.

I am now listening to Dream Theater As I Am... Had to crack that on open after typing it.
