Boyd's Nest

About me: I was born May 28 1988. I am an Aspie. I love to read and play video games. I have never really grown out of things I liked as a kid such as Thomas the Tank Engine. This blog is where I talk about things that are on my mind at the time. And maybe show off new toys.

you monsters

[splatoonus]

Who, these guys?

[splatoonus]

Hold onto your buoys because this next Splatfest is quite a doozy! Ever since we’ve uncovered the theme, the Squid Research Lab has been in utter chaos. Need a hint?

F  is for Friends who splat things together

U  is for you and me

N  is for anywhere and anytime at all…

But not under the deep blue sea (because Inklings can’t swim)!

That’s right – this Splatfest will  be Team SpongeBob vs Team Patrick! Whether you live in a pineapple or under a  rock, head to Inkopolis Plaza and cast your pick starting tomorrow.

[boydsnest]

is this Splatoon? No this is Patrick.

this one had to come eventually and I am very happy

Hey sinners

Y’all deserve to know which layer of Hell you’re going to

Take the Dante’s Inferno test here and tag your results so we can find out who sins the hardest

Stop whatever the hell you are doing right now and see this! Super Mario to a violin.

This isn’t what you think it is. It’s better.

♫ If I had a million dollars ♫ If I had a million dollars ♫ I’d buy you a guy in white tie & tails to live-score your video games for you on violin

Damn. Now I just have a big goofy grin all over my stupid face.

They go to the negative world?  Well now they’re just showin’ off!

More Splatoon

After playing all three stress tests, I’m pretty confident that the servers will hold. I got disconnected in battle a couple of times this time, but for the most part it was still smooth. I am also now addicted to squid jump, though I hate the ice platforms

[lottiesquishhugs]

are there anymore global testfire events yet? i missed the one last noght

[boydsnest]

there is one more left, should start in just under an hour now

[boydsnest]

Played the testfire for second time. Now is the time to give my opinions on it. First off, well done Nintendo, while the second event I got kicked off a couple times, I was easily able to reconnect and I was never kicked off during battle. It looks like the servers will be able to handle the stress. I played with each weapon during the first test and found that while I can work with any, the roller is the best choice for me. This may change when I have full weapons access in the full game. The second test I stuck with the paint roller, so if you saw an Inkling Girl named Ryu with the roller that was me. While playing, it was made pretty clear that there is no best weapon, just a best weapon for an individual’s play style. I was out ranked a couple of times by players using the charger, in my opinion the most difficult weapon to use.

I already have the game pre-ordered. This confirmed it will be worth it. My review is: Highly recommended!

Ooooh, the cut footage from “The Meek Shall Inherit” from the movie version of Little Shop of Horrors.  Always wanted to see this.

Demz, I know this will interest you

If someone asks why we need more diverse representation in Transformers media and retail offerings, remind them that what GoBots three decades ago STILL HASN’T BEEN TOPPED.

(Why is Nancy here? Because no other Cybertronian women had speaking roles in the original Transformers cartoon. We checked.)

Inspired by this post. Toy images from Counter-X and CollectionDX.

SO the first three episodes of the new TF cartoon have aired in Australia. Links to them can be found here: http://ryssa-aquicoine.tumblr.com/

Thanks to that tumblr I was able to watch them. I am really enjoying it so far. Not as much as Recue Bots, but I like it. I am very happy with strong arm as character. and it is my personal canon that she was raised by Rodimus (her love of adventure) and Ultra Magnus(Her love of rules).

My one complaint is that I wish the show was 2D animation as I believe the designs would work better there.
