Whatever Matt Feels Like Posting

Weekly Miiverse Backup: Posts from 04/21/2013 - 04/22/2013

I'm so behind my planned schedule of posting these Miiverse backup entries - if I'd kept to my schedule, I would've posted this entry between June 10 and 16. Maybe this will become Daily Miiverse Backup until I'm caught up!

Balloon Trip Breeze

6 6

(I'm surprised this had 6 Yeahs, because it's kind of hard to tell what's going on and I remember one person couldn't even read the third panel. In fact, it's kind of hard to illustrate any sort of "I died because of this" moment in Balloon Trip Breeze in a way that it's easy to tell what's going on, especially if I try and illustrate two in one post...)

One of these prizes is not like the others...

(Yay, my first Miiverse post to have a screenshot in it! Did the screenshot feature not exist until then, or did I not know how to use it until then, or did I simply not have a good reason to post a screenshot until then? Who knows?)

Anyone know why my TV doesn't show anything from the Wii U now even though it's still plugged in?

Pikmin Adventure
For me, this was the first level that seemed more difficult than just "throw Pikmin at everything"…

(And then after this was my first longer-than-a-month hiatus from Miiverse; my next post was 56 days after this one. Hopefully it won't take me that long to post the next Miiverse backup entry!)

Well, it would be weekly if I'd posted this between June 3 and 9, anyway...

Featuring my first and only post in the Legend of Zelda Series community, and surprisingly many Zelda-related posts in general!

(And yeah, I know I'm posting a lot of gaming-related posts lately between my Miiverse backup posts, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate hype, and my fanboying over a certain cute manual guide. Sorry.)

Saved up so many coins that when I left the coin minigame, the prizes shot out rapid-fire XD

I'd like to see someone TRY to beat my best time: a mere… -:--.--? Yeah, alright, I'm bad at this :(

The Legend of Zelda: Battle Quest (still in time trial mode)
NOW I beat it! If it takes 1:11, though, I don't think I can get those 25 / 20 sec or less stamps…

(How did this post get more Yeahs than the previous one?)

(Also, as some of you who've known me for a while know, I made a LJ entry in 2013 about my first Miiverse post to get misunderstood; that misunderstood post isn't in the backup I got from Nintendo because it's a comment on another post, but chronologically it was before this next one.)

(That inside joke ended up not being used a whole lot, but a couple of years later I did nickname my Zelda amiibo "100PctZlda" [would've been "100% Zelda" but percent signs aren't allowed in amiibo nicknames for some reason?] because of it.
Also, in addition to this being my first and only post in this community, this is also my first Miiverse post to lack the "has played this game" icon, because it's the first time I posted in a community where the icon never appears because the community is for a whole series and not one specific game.)

Speaking of Miiverse, here's a Miiverse backup post that I meant to post last week! :)

Featuring what apparently was my first few Nintendo Land posts in 13 days. At the time, that was my longest hiatus from any specific Miiverse community in addition to this being the first time I posted to Miiverse at all in over a week.

Pikmin Adventure

7 1

(It turned out I was remembering wrong when I drew that first panel - in that section, the ? Block [that I'd opened by that point on the first try but not the second try] has a clock IN it; the ? Block and the clock are not both there at the same time. I'm pretty sure the one comment was me pointing this out.)

*I always assumed this was specifically the theme for timed missions in Pikmin Adventure, but apparently it's not!

Once again, it's time for some archived Miiverse posts I was hoping to have posted here last week! :P

Run for It
It's so hard to hit the switches! Especially if we bubble if the A button merely twitches!

(I think this is the only time I actually obeyed the "write a rhyme about this level on Miiverse" prompt that came up in-game, not counting the time I subverted it by rhyming "Star Coins" with "can't think of a rhyme related to this level". I did the "warning sign" prompt a few times, though. And apparently I also only ever followed the "two words" prompt once but didn't think to point it out in these Miiverse backup entries.)

I think we'll have better luck if we just stay at the beginning until the timer runs out…

FINALLY made it with two ☆ Coins but only because one of us touched the goal by accident!

(Considering the trouble we had in this level, I'm surprised it apparently only took us two days to beat it [even if that's not counting going back later for the remaining Star Coin]. I see it did take a few hours, though!)

If there were ever a Three Stooges video game, it'd be a LOT like 3-player in this game...

(Oddly enough, within the past month or so I discovered that there are in fact TWO Three Stooges video games already. Since 1984 and 1987, in fact. The former apparently has three-player mode as its ONLY mode, even! Maybe I should try these out someday...)

Super Smashing Birthdays

2017-07-14T04:55:38Z

Happy a-few-minutes-early-in-my-time-zone birthday to me! :)

And also happy birthday to 13catswaltz, who has the same birthday as me! :)

And also also to Luigi - because Mario Bros. was released in Japan on July 14, 1983; my negative tenth birthday. ;)

Hey, there's an idea for a totally nerdy survey...

This page has a table (several paragraphs down from the beginning of that section...) that lists the dates every* Super Smash Bros. character debuted (because in SSB4, the order you fight them in All-Star Mode is based on that).

Use that to figure out your answers to these questions:

1) Which SSB character(s), if any, debuted on your birthday in any year?
Luigi

2) Which SSB character(s) debuted closest to the date you were born?
Meta Knight (debuted March 23, 1993 - the date closest to July 14, 1993 in that list).

3) Which SSB character(s) debuted closest to the date you created your LiveJournal/DreamWidth/some-other-journal-site account? (If you have/had multiple journals, you may answer this separately for all of them, some of them, or just one. Whichever you prefer.)
My LJ was created on August 19, 2007 - the character whose debut was closest to that is Rosalina (November 1, 2007).
My DW was created on May 13, 2017, long after the debut of the newest character (Corrin, on June 25, 2015).

:)

*Except Miis, alternate characters (the Koopalings and Alph), and characters from Melee and Brawl who aren't in SSB4. ( I went ahead and looked up the relevant dates in case you want to include them )
