Just got out of Lilliput Steps.

It's still really freakin' weird to just sit there on the couch staring at the screen and then suddenly realize "oh my god, I am playing this on an actual console how awesome is this".

I had it for the SNES way back in the day, so it's not so weird for me. tongue

I just reached Summers, personally, but since I've had since April to play it and you guys haven't, I'm slacking, comparatively.

I was asking Waxing Name.

I do intend to get the Sword of Kings, though.

I'm amused that the ESRB rating mentions mild blood specifically, as if it were possible to have average blood or strong blood.

I just beat up the 3rd Strongest Mole.

And the 3rd strongest, as well as the 3rd, 3rd, and 3rd strongest.

Also, I refuse to cure Jeff's sunstroke. Serves him right for not having PSI.

When his Bottle Rockets are doing more damage than any one else and he's gunking up enemies and draining their health with his gadgets, you won't begrudge it.

Nope, he's still a nerd. I let him get diamondized once, too.

Just completed the Department Store, where Jeff kept getting electrocuted by the Musicas. GOOD.

For the record, I am aware of how useful he becomes by the end with his gadgets. I just like making fun of him.

On my Wii U run I was thinking about buying Paula a new teddy bear every time hers gets trashed. (Which will be often, but...)

I guess Ness and Paula can dull blows using PSI, but how does Jeff survive being mauled by buffalo, sliced up by sapient music discs, incinerated by a kraken, chomped on by a dinosaur, stung by deadly scorpions, having the carbon in his body crystallized, or crushed under a barrage of psychic meteorites?

He's a teenaged nerd with a bowl cut and a bowtie. He probably should have been killed by the first Gruff Goat. tongue

But he wasn't. Instead, he fought his way through everything in his path, single-handedly rescued Ness and Paula, and then continues to carry his own and take insane amounts of damage to the face without a single superpower to his name, all in the name of sheer, almighty badassery.

Jeff will f*ck you up.

Oh, the physical copy. I thought you somehow got the Japanese VC release.

And I just like poking fun at Jeff. I refuse to heal him if he gets sunstroke/diamondized, let him get killed by a New Age Retro Hippie, ect. tongue

I know, I know, broken antennae from Uncontrollable Spheres.

Jeff is useful, I just love tormenting him when I'm not progressing the plot. tongue

Unless you mean I won't get the endgame equipment because he'll refuse to listen to me.

I've kept him strong, I even killed off Ness and Paula for a while to bring him up to speed with Paula, then revived her and brought the two of them up to Ness's general level.

It's just when I'm not advancing the plot I goof off. This game has a lot of fun stuff to do, and a surprisingly large amount of dialogue based on who is leading your party when Ness gets killed. Try talking to Frank without Ness, for example, and he'll argue that the transitive property doesn't apply with friendship and tell you to get out.

Just made it inside Belch's factory on my VC playthrough. Since that means taking a trip in the Sky Runner, I've found out that the changes to the international VC release are tantamount to the changes in the Japanese VC release, e.g. there aren't any besides toning down a few PSI animations to prevent epilepsy triggers. (There are actually fewer changes from the original ROM in the international version.)

Also a bit strange that they haven't changed "yo-yo" to something else, considering Startropics.

That's interesting. Are the Pencil and Eraser statues Octopii and whatever the other one was?
