I am pissed I turned in a main quest thinking the chapter would be more than 1 quest so I couldn't get a modifier on my 110k banked xp. That cost me 3 levels.

This is why I keep the exp-null ring equipped at all times until Im at the triple-exp hotel.

I never Downloaded it.

Why not? Its free.

theres a 5 part anime that gave you some insight on each of the main character's backstories

then the platinum demo gets you an extra summon in the main game IIRC

I think you can still get Carbuncle without the demo, the demo just lets you name it.

Also you only get Carbuncle in easy mode anyway.

DKC3 was the beginning of Rare's obsession with collectibles, so I'll always hold that against it. Plus, Kiddy and Ellie are terrible. Other than that, pretty fun game.

DKC2 was the one to introduce Kremkoins and DK Coins though. It did them well, to be sure, but Id call that the beginning of that.

Yeah, Pixar also does more sequels than the main Disney team. I had to look into Planes and while I knew Pixar didnt make it - that was DisneyToon, who did a lot of the direct-to-video stuff - I was not aware that John Lasseter had story involvement on that one.

Feels like it's been slightly longer than a normal sequel takes to come out, but I'm on board.

Not for Walt Disney Animation Studios!

Fantasia (1940) -> Fantasia 2000 (2000)
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1977) -> Winnie the Pooh (2011)
The Rescuers (1977) -> The Rescuers Down Under (1990)

And...thats all the sequels theyve made. I guess Three Caballeros is a sequel to Saludos Amigos, but those were package films anyway.

I'm seeing headlines about Donald announcing his 2020 campaign...what?

Can't look into them yet, but I know Donald applied with the FEC to be a candidate last year on the day of his inauguration. I think this is over a year earlier than the next earliest reelection bid too -- Obama in about April 2011.

Is the advantage here campaign funding (in a way he wasn't already getting from the FEC as mentioned above), shutting down primary challengers, dominating the news cycle, show of strength...? I don't get it.

What I read was it was his campaign manager who was announced today. Brad Parscale, who was the digital director on Trumps 2016 campaign.

Although Wii is still the best system of choice for Bit.Trip Beat, you use motion controls to twist the remote around kinda like a pong controller in bar form. It just feels really great that way so the game loses a lot in the ports (including a 3DS port) imho

Fortunately thats one where the Wii version will still be available, thanks to the existence of a physical collection of the whole original series.
