Why I Like Nintendo Consoles

              Hello hello. Various things made me want to write this out. I’m not busy at the moment and I just can’t figure out how to start. I was reading comments on a poll about Pokemon Arceus and people are just the weirdest things aren’t they? The things they say about the Switch, Pokemon and even Nintendo are absolutely ridiculous. Like, PlayStation isn’t exactly my cup of tea, I don’t exactly have any opinions one way or the other but I wouldn’t go out of my way to comment something on a PlayStation post saying like “PlayStation sucks” or “Nintendo/Xbox/PC better.” So I guess this is how I’m starting it. I really like Nintendo and I want to share with you how and why. It’s probably boring so I understand if you close out and I feel like I’ve talked about it before but looking at my blog list I don’t see anything that rings a bell. A little ironic since one of the reasons I started this blog was so I wouldn’t have to repeat myself. So, let us begin.             I wasn’t a N

Pokemon Battle Frontier

              Alright, I’m having an extensile crisis. Is that the right phrase? Not sure. Anyway, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl does NOT have the Battle Frontier from Platinum. I just finished the Pokedex, went to go to the Survival Area because I was looking for the Battle Frontier, wasn’t finding it so I went a-googlin'. I could have sworn that Diamond and Pearl had the BF but apparently not and the reasoning it's not in BDSP is because they wanted to keep the games faithful to the originals but yet they have fairy types in the game. How is that faithful? Apparently, Emerald had a Battle Frontier and HeartGold/SoulSilver had the exact BF as Platinum. So maybe that’s why I thought more than one game had it. I never got to the BF in Emerald, I didn’t even know it had one until I was googling. I remember finding something in Alpha Sapphire that was like a model of the frontier or the Battle Tower and said something like “coming soon.” I just found this; I guess there wa

Reviving My 3DS and Fighting Cynthia

            I just had to most fucked up Pokemon battle I’ve ever had, in any game. Let me back up a bit and try to paint the picture a tad bit better. Over the last week or so I’ve been bebopping between a bunch of my Switch games. I’ve done pretty much all I can do in Pokemon Sword, finally got a shiny Magikarp from the event that just ended, played a little of Mario Odyssey, a little 3D World, a little Splatoon 2 and even some Kid Icarus Uprising on my 3DS. Now, my 3DS is kind of fucked. The battery just doesn’t hold its charge, if I want to play it I have to have it connected to an outlet. Not a big deal unless I want to play it somewhere besides my house. I was looking at replacement batteries for the 3DS (which I still haven’t bought, hold on, okay and that is done), I figured they either were going to be super expensive or complicated to replace but when I was researching I found neither to be the case. But the thought of actually using my 3DS on break at work or whatever got me
