I've just been lazy about getting a Twitch account, or any
other account for that matter (laughs), but I'll look
into it soon. Isn't it a shame that you have to r-
esort to another means of communication
for playing Wii U games? But I guess a-
t this point, you find something t-
hat works and use it. I'm mor-
e interested in the video-
capturing methods t-
hat were used fo-
r your gamin-
g videos.
How
can I ac-
quire video
capturing softw-
are for the PSP or Vi-
ta. Oh and for the 3DS a-
s well. I'm just curious about
the technology and may be inter-
ested in making some videos (though
I'm still not trying to stream anything yet).



Still playing Uncharted
Golden Abyss on t-
he Vita and r-
ight now,
I'm o-
n:

(Chapter 9...)

3DS and Vita video capture would require specialized devices, you would usually need to send your system to someone who would have to modify it... either that or purchase an entire system with the device built in. The PSP is a bit easier to capture if you have a model that allows for composite video output.

Thanks for the information, Pelord!
I didn't think much was needed
for capturing video for such
devices. Now I know (lau-
ghs). We used to have
a store here that w-
ould've sold said
devices, but i-
t's more of
a Game-
stop
now (l-
aughs). F-
or now, it's o-
nly good for get-
ing certain in dema-
nd games early. I'll res-
earch the capturing devic-
es in a few. Right now, I'm m-
aking progress in Uncharted: Gold-
en Abyss and finding a lot of treasure.

More progress
in Unchart-
ed for t-
he Vi-
ta.

Finished most of WWE 2k15's modes... beat career and both showcases. Now going through the universe mode here and there. Back to Hyrule Warriors now for the most part, though also have Smash Bros. Wii U. Can't tear myself away from further completion of adventure mode in Hyrule Warriors, so Smash will have to wait a bit.

You've successfully managed to avoid playing Super Smash Bros?
AMAZING (laughs)!!! Just kidding, but I did find the 3DS ve-
ersion addictive on many levels at some point, and th-
e Wii U version has much more content than it's 3-
DS sibling. If Hyrule Warriors has as much rep-
lay value as your typical Dynasty Warriors
title, it's no wonder why you keep co-
ming back to it (laughs). Congrat-
ulations on your progress in W-
WE. Do you think those DLC
characters will interest
you enough for a pu-
rchase? I'm still m-
aking progress
in Unchart-
ed for t-
he Vi-
ta.



(though I may get back to Mario 3DS Land...)

Star Wars Battlefront (PS2)

Still playing the same, though taking a break from Hyrule Warriors. Managed to complete the 128 maps of adventure mode, unlocked everything and need a break from it Also still got 2K15 on the side and yes... I get all the DLC content when it comes to those. Didn't care for the game much at first, but it's grown on me... just can't do anything with CAW as it's just not right to me without the proper custom entrance music and animations.

Battlefront is a title I've not heard of or played in some time!
I used to REALLY enjoy the series and hoped that install-
ments would reach updated consoles for the time, m-
eaning the PS3 and Xbox 360. I had a LOT of fun p-
laying the PS2 and even PSP versions, though t-
he PSP rendition of the series didn't control
well thanks to the lack of a second analo-
g stick and L2/R2 buttons which made
some functions more difficult to pe-
rform. I miss this series along wi-
th the Timesplitters franchise
(don't get me started on th-
at one... laughs). Thanks
for the memories Ken-
seiden! I hope you
are enjoying th-
e game as m-
uch as I di-
d. I'm su-
re you
nee-
ded a h-
uge break f-
rom Hyrule War-
riors after playing it
so long, Roemello... lau-
ghs! I've read and viewed a l-
ot of articles and video reviews
stating how WWE2K15 was a step b-
ack for the series, especially since the
previous version of it had those same feat-
ure still intact proving that it could be done!
Why the were removed, even for the now-gen sy-
stems is beyond me other than wanting to take mon-
ey from last and now-gen system owners by releasing a h-
alf-reared rendition of the game with little effort for impro-
vements. I'm not saying that some degree of effort didn't take p-
lace in scanning the grapplers of the game, but in terms of features
when compared to WWE2K14, it's a huge step back. Even with the amo-
unt of divas included... pathetic (at least from what I've last read, so plea-
se correct me on this if I'm inaccurate in my sources... laughs). I've made little
progress in Super Mario 3D Land & Uncharted: Golden Abyss since I haven't done m-
uch portable gaming in a while, but I did get back into console gaming. I've played and
completed Grand Theft Auto 5 and now, I'm slowly attempting to get 100% completion in it.

The break didn't last long... back at Hyrule Warriors Majora's Mask DLC just came out, so I get another map to be backlogged in Right now going through the Master Quest map

Wow! I didn't know Hyrule Warriors was
so deep. Initially, I assumed that it
existed as Dynasty Warriors bu-
t with Zelda characters and
maps... but I guess I wa-
s wrong (laughs). Ha-
ve you managed
to acquire al-
l of the DL-
C from
HW?



N-
o rea-
l gaming f-
rom me outsi-
de of searching f-
or puzzle pieces on t-
he 3DS in the Puzzle Swap
section of Mii Plaza. I'll proba-
bly get back in to Uncharted on th-
e Vita and progress in Super Mario 3D:

(Land...)

Yeah, I bought into the Hero of Hyrule pack when I got the game... which is basically their version of a season pass, so I get it all. It is a very deep content filled game with all the DLC... the adventure mode has enormous maps... the first and master quest each have 128 challenges each... many need to be completed multiple times to get all the rewards. Then the DLC's brought in a twilight map and a Termina map along with it... then there's a rewards map with a few more challenges. But I've been addicted to collecting all the different weapons and leveling/upgrading the characters... it really forces ya to master every character in the game if you want to collect everything... all with unique styles.

Never played a Dynasty Warriors game to know how much of one this is, but as a Zelda fan since the mid-late 80s, it's a lot of fun. Not as good as an actual Zelda adventure by a long shot, but it's been a fun side game while awaiting the next real one.

I am playing Sims:Freeplay on my phone, as well as Tetris Blitz.

On Facebook, I play Marketland, Metropolis, Fairyland, Doubledown Casino, Songpop, Moviepop, Trivia Crack, and a bunch of other time-wasters.

I'm not really a fan of the season-pass system where players are essentially
paying for future content that they may not even like (laughs), but in
case of Hyrule Warriors, at least the content was that which you
have found favorable, Roemello... so that's a wise investme-
nt. Well, Dynasty Warriors is set up similarly since playe-
rs must replay missions to unlock new weapons and i-
tems for each character and to unlock new chara-
cters as well. DW has you leveling up and gat-
hering weapons for more than 60 charact-
ers, so the replay value is astronomic-
ally high (laughs). I'm curious abou-
t those dungeons and the challe-
nges since they seem to be u-
nique to Hyrule Warriors.
I too have been a fan
of Zelda since the
original game
of the late
80's, th-
ough
there w-
ere some in
the series that
I've missed during
the N64 era, though I
have gotten the chance t-
o relive the experience throu-
gh Ocarina of Time 3D and I hope
to get Majora's Mask 3D one day as w-
ell. Welcome back, Patty!!!! My goodness
has it been AGES!!! It's nice to see that you s-
till game. I've been slacking off as of late (laughs).
The good thing about those "time-wasters" is that they
keep your mind functioning, well, depending on the game
like Trivia Crack. As far as gaming is concerned, I've only been
making progress trying to assemble more pieces for the latest puzz-
le I've received in Puzzle Swap of the Mii Plaza for the 3DS. On another
note, I'm selling my entire PS2 collection due to space and a major move in
my life. I'll miss seeing the system and games, but the end result will be worth it.

It's been a while since I've dropped in here, so I should post an update myself...

Console: Pretty much down to 3DS as I haven't gotten a Wii U yet (possibly after I get my tax refund), but I upgraded to the New 3DS XL...

Periodically playing Tomodachi Life as it only takes a few minutes, but have been playing Fantasy Life in the meantime.


Mobile / Tablet: Haven't gotten into a major gaming yet, mostly as I was manually updating the OS (gotten back to waiting for updates to minimize headaches). Currently participating in the 8-table tournament in Pinball Arcade (in the Top 30 in the Bronze Tournament at last check), but will likely head back to DQ1 or FF1 for more serious action with the usual casual fare.

PC: Seem to be having some performance issues on my system that's discouraging me to go into the major titles as frame rates seem to plummet temporarily for no adequate reason. Considering getting a new system (or a Steam-class PC) before I get back into heavy gaming.

I've been watching a fair amount of Twitch as well (mostly for Loading Ready Live), but I have dropped into Pelord's Stream when it's running (& I'm not watching anything else)... but it mostly depends on my work schedule.
