Buying Marvel vs. Capcom: Fighting Collection brought me back memories. Yes, memories of the arcade. Earlier on, I wrote an entry about  why the pandemic never made me miss going to the arcade . Playing Marvel vs. Capcom: Fighting Collection made me think of a lot of stuff. It reminds me of the time I bought Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks and did the Smoke Missions to unlock the Mortal Kombat II classic game for the PS2 -- the seventh console generation era. I was also able to buy Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Super Heroes for the PS2. All the while, I wonder why Capcom never made Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes remake for the PS2 while they did for the Dreamcast -- a system that died too soon! The arcade is a huge token eater. I made a list of arcade games that I wasted money on . The games can be infamous for their button reading, broken AI (where characters can do what the player can't do), and the difficulty that goes up and up. I believe I remember seeing someone gett...

Is it me or does she really LOOK LIKE BELLE in Beauty and the Beast ?  Instagram

Here's a photo of the once-innocent-looking Bella Thorne. It's sad how she's lost that innocent image years ago. =(  

These photos still make me think she's Himeno Ran. XD Jacqueline Scislowski's Instagram

It's known that I tend to watch shows for the pretty girls. I would find myself asking, "Am I watching something for the plot or the pretty girl?" That question would often nag my head -- A LOT! I felt like rambling this because of the upcoming Miss Universe pageant. It's no secret that I've admired the beauty of Olivia Jordan and Catriona M. Gray. I'd like to think about my struggle of The Plot vs. the Pretty Girl in why I watch certain shows. Between Super Sentai and Power Rangers It's no secret that I watched Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers as a child. It wasn't just because it was one of the cool things to do in the 1990s. It was also because I had that crush on Kimberly Hart! I watched Mighty Morphin' back then because I found Kimberly THAT PRETTY. However, things simply started to go downhill (for me, at least) when I discovered that Power Rangers was a licensed adaptation of Super Sentai . Yes, that's why I don't like it when a cer...

I remember getting gamer rage A LOT. Yes, we had that Family Computer and many games were ridiculously difficult. Video games were a form of escapism. I treated every lost turn like I failed an exam. I always found some form of escapism in video games. As I try to play some old games -- some old games may NO LONGER be worth playing in the present! By the time I got the PS2 in the 2000s -- I remember getting Mega Man Anniversary Collection . I ended up using Easy Mode. The reason was because the first six games can be monstrously difficult. Mega Man gave me a lot of gamer rage. The first three  Mega Man X games are also that hard. Fortunately, there was the Password Cheats to make it a little easier. I'd always use all items minus weapons passwords in the first three games. Even the infamously difficult Mega Man X6 was more tolerable than next two Mega Man X games. It really showed what was really wrong! As I watched the video, I can agree that poor programming, artificially increas...
