Sup, I'm a new shmuck. Seems ShyGuy's resorting to PMing peoples to get us in here. BUT WAIT, I was, and still am, a little confused. Was 'Heatmor's Name Changer House' formally known as 'The Funhouse'? Mayhaps the entirety of Ninty-Wurld Forums is the Funhouse, or just the Community Forums, where James is no longer allowed due to apparent lack of coolness. *Strokes stubble* I am in need of enlightening. Google reveals a few threads mentioning a house of funness, but I can't seem to find the forum subsection.  :Q

This is the Funhouse. The displayed name changes fairly regularly, whenever the mods feel like it, but we cool people still just refer to it as the Funhouse.

Roy, it seems we were cool enough to be specifically selected to be put on display in such a fine public auditorium. We're the best of the best, buddy, so let's not let the crew down! *Feels important*

Then I too shall call it the Funhouse in the hopes that it'll help me pick up chicks with this newfound coolness flowing through my lavender-scented...stuff. Sorry, it's gone. SO HI THAR! Them John dudes sure can rap, am I right?

It's not an initiation. There is no hazing allowed... anymore.

It's more of a rabbit hole that leads to a small room with a table in the middle. On top of that table is a vial with a label that says "Drink Me!".

The link in your PM was the rabbit hole, and you are now standing next to the table in the small room. The Funhouse is in that vial. Do you drink it?

It's more of a glory hole that leads to a small room with a table in the middle. On top of that wall is a graffiti in cursive that says "Drink Me!".

The link in your PM was the gloryhole, and you are now standing next to the table in the small room. The Funhouse is that vile.  Do you drink it?

If you want to get a feel for what the Funhouse is, you should read through the Rules of the Funhouse Thread (http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=28982.0). It starts off with a post outlining the basic philosophy of the forum, and then continues as a great example of the kind of stuff we do here. Remember, always follow rule number one:

Everything within the FUNHOUSE is to be taken as a joke

My name's Wikipedia McFluffers, and I enjoy walking for teh exercise. Podcasts are good listening material, but I started my RFN career long before this exercising binge started. Greg's voice is so soothing...it knocks me out quick-smart. Oh, and if any of you podcast masters are reading this, and get the chance to sometime talk to Craig Harris, could you apologise to him for me about that Babbage's question on the live podcast? T'was just a little joke that I hope didn't annoy him too greatly. I donated $5 for it, so at least some good came from it. Digress FTW.

I like to complain about Nintendo of Australia a lot, makin' me wait ages for English games 'n such. SRSLY!

End.

Adventures, eh? I live in Australia and I was confronted by one of our infamous "Health-Bar Spiders" the other day. It was unpleasant for all concerned. In fact, it managed to eat a few people before it was subdued.

Razorkid, when I was a kid there just seemed to be rhubarb pie. Somewhere along the way it switched to strawberry rhubarb. My mom used to grow and can her own rhurbarb.

'Tis just a muck-around forum, mate. There are sections to talk about games here too, so I'm sold.

Infernal Monkey? YAR! Aussie-Nintendo Forums is one of my 'hanging out to be cool' spots, and he's an...admin or something there. He probably wouldn't know me if you mentioned me to him though due to my measly 600-odd post count. Pathetic.

My mom used to grow and can her own rhurbarb.
It's my dream to someday grow and my own rhurbarb. But not for pie, as pies should only contain meat fillings. You crazy Americans. We do have apple pies and...red flavoured pies, but meat pies are consumed way more. Steak and egg? Cheese and bacon? It's all offal anyway, but it's delicious offal. Best intestines EVAR!

Shyggies, Queensland got the floods after a really bad drought (NE Aus), then a cyclone shortly after. Western Australia (W Aus :-3) got the fires I think, I dunno, I don't watch the TV anymore. Victoria (SE Aus) got really bad fires a year or two ago which killed lots of people. I live in New South Wales (E Aus), right around Sydney, which is the capitol of Australia, as everyone knows... 'Tis just common knowledge. We had Oprah here a few months back, so that's a cyclone of sorts. Millions dead serious about their appreciation of Oprah.

*EDIT*

I guess my Oprah comment was uncalled for. I now have a minus against my name. *Ctrl+X wrists*

*MOAR EDITS*

Health Bar Spiders (Final Fantius Freakin' Huegious) are quite common in Australia, their native homeland, and are quite distinguishable by their hueg size. So huge, infact, that they have health bars akin to those in Final Fantasy games above their heads. Hunters despise them, however, due to the fact that once the killing blow has been made, the carcase vanashes. Scientists believe that they pass on over into another dimension (Dimension X), where Krang is still on his desperate quest to retrieve his bawwwdy. TMNT TMNT TMNT HIaH-S TURTLE POWER! Yeah, I freakin' hate spiders too, bud.

The excitement of my week has been that I spent about 6 hours yesterday playing Wind Waker.  I'm on a mission to finally beat that game.  I've tried several times before but always get distracted from it.  Not this time, I will be victorious.

Could I get a pie instead of a tote bag?  Pie sounds good right now...

Well for one I am a huge video game freak! But also I have huge aspirations for world domination!

As for wacky adventures......I did get a new fancy hat at Kohl's. Yay for fancy hats!

Alas I am not aware of this Infernal Monkey. :(

PS: BTW viciouskillersquirrel you have an awesome name and avatar! Also I may be in need of a vicious killer squirrel such as yourself to help take control of this puny mud ball of a planet! BWAHAHAHAHAHA...cough..hac..cough....HAHAHAHA!

Bastard! I had full intentions of doing the same, but Dick Smith's (heh...'dick') preorder deal suckered in a lot of the crew from Aussie Nintendo (WHERE INFERNAL RESIDES, OMG!), myself included. Time to look forward to pointless delays and games not coming out all-together. We don't have Shantae or Cave Story yet.  :'( Piracy, if available, will be used if I get fed up enough. Gah! Should've just imported. No Pilotwings or Steel Diver at launch for us. No reason as always. Market manipulation, amirite? :-[

I saw my first ever snake in the wild a few days back on one of my walks. T'was about 4 feet long, 9 inches in diametre, and completely glossy black. Bricks were shat. Flashbacks of prison showers and what-not. Throwing a pokeball was of little effect, as he'd been recharging his HP in the sun all day. Save states would've been helpful.

I actually really want to play Conker on the N64. I saw it at my local video game store, but it was $40 and kind of beat up. Did I make a mistake on not getting it?

On a side note: Does anyone else here hate cheap AI in fighting games? Even though Mortal Kombat Trilogy is my favorite fighting game, it still pisses me off that I can sometimes spend 25 to 40 minutes fighting one guy or one endurance match just because of cheap AI.

So Scatt-Man, what are your powers? I want your babies!

I'm able to misquote people in forums when the coding allows for slightly humorous results...sometimes. My babies are in the car if you want them.  ;) Oh! I'm also able to make delicious sammiches even though I'm not a woman. True story!

Gameboy Freak, why don't you just fly? Unveil those 50,000 more powers you've been hiding these past eight seasons and just be done with it. Jeez!

Conker's Bad Fur Day was pretty kew. It came out 'ere for $140 I think. I was a sucker for Rare platformers back then, even though the majority of 'em were the same. This one's multiplayer was quite addictive.

OH!! Walked into a store I'd never been in before yesterday called Gametraders. I nostalgiagasmed all over the place. Dude, there were boxed SNES and N64 games and everything! Donkey Kong Country, OMG!! Secret of Mana for $100!! My favorite game of all time!! I think I might actually buy a few Gamecube games from there. They had Geist, Baiton Kaitos and others. I've heard good things. End!

Found you.
All those at PAX East '11, I salute you.  I volunteered as an Enforcer at the Naga Theatre, so if you saw a panel there, I might have asked you to stay between the red lines, or perhaps you came to the end of the line and I was standing there, holding a white board with "END OF THE LINE" written on it.  Sounds stimulating, I know...  Here ends the worst description of PAX ever.  (In fact, 'twas amazing.  Come to Boston and join us in 2012.)
Other Adventures = Playing my import copy of Jam with the Band on DS.  Working on a piece about our old friend, the Virtual Boy.  Trying to get my girlfriend off her Animal Crossing addiction, only to hook her onto Harvest Moon.  About to eat this last half of a slice of toast with peanut butter, nutella and jam.

Crimm, thanks for the recommendation.  Or warning?  All she does in AC is walk around and water flowers, and I'm thinking, "hey, there's a game where that's the whole point!"  I worry that if she dives in, she'll be lost to me, forever planting tomatoes and stroking her sheep.  So we'll see. 
Oh, and after watching the live RFN panel, she said she liked you the best.  James Jones gots fans, alright.

Post by: Oblivion on March 15, 2011, 07:27:26 PM
Alright...
 
Well, my username is obviously Oblivion, but you can can me Obby. I'm 16 years old and an inspiring video game journalist. I currently have my own website, and I plan on working up to be a well known source for all video game news and reviews. Understandably, that won't happen for a very long time, if at all.
 
Actually, that's partly why I joined this forum. I've lurked the site for about a year now. I kinda want to talk with the admins, editors, etc., as a kind of job shadow type thing. But since I wasn't even a member of the forum, I knew it wouldn't happen. So...here I am.
 
I did, in fact, have a wacky adventure, but it involved my career as a spy, so I'm not allowed to talk about that.
 
And no, I'm not an Elder Scrolls fan. I am, however, excited for Conduit 2, the 3DS, and Bioshock Infinite.

Post by: tyrian3 on March 16, 2011, 03:54:04 PM
so hello there, as you may already guess I got the famour PM too and the first thing that came to mind was "WTF?"
then I slowly realised.
Anyway here I am, I don't think anyone remembers but I'm the first caller during the RFN Live charity show, the guy from Italy that tried to make a joke about speaking like Mario but the call dropped and my impression didn't get recorded.
I also made an mp3 and sent it to Karl (thanks again for trying, man!) but it couldn't be put in the recording.
Sad, because I was going to give just what the people in the IRC wanted  ;D

(I still have that mp3, in case you're wondering  :cool; )

I joined the forum mainly because I love the RFN podcast and wanted to be a bit closer to the site aswell. I write for an Italian site about games retro and current, and I recently tried the 3ds (for that site) and we're soon starting a free PDF magazine in both Italian and English about retrogaming. maybe when it's out I should plug it here hehe!
I dream of starting a podcast of my own and being a guest in RFN since I immensely enjoyed being on the live show and talking to the guys, even though I was super-excited and could barely talk.

I discovered RFN about 6 months ago. That stuff is crack in audio form. About 2 weeks ago, I finished listening to every episode, including E3/PAX specials and other unnumbered episodes.

I've attached the file. Feel free to LOL  :P: :)

yes it's pretty much that. "Pasta alla marinara" literally translates to "seafarers' style pasta" and it's pasta (usually spaghetti or linguine) with seafood. It's actually pretty weird for me that you call tomato sauce "marinara", anyway I'm sure there are tons of English words that we in Italy use in weird ways aswell hehehe. We call tomato sauce "sugo di pomodoro" (it just means tomato sauce) and the one with meat in it "ragù di carne" (tomato and meat sauce) or "ragù alla bolognese" which you probably spell "bolonnaise" or something.

If you have any question (not just food related of course) I'd be happy to give you some first-hand info about Italy and anything related. There's too much misinformation floating around these days (and that sadly happens with US related stuff too).

As an American of Italian descent, my family and I all call it gravy (ragu) instead of tomato sauce. My wife, also of Italian descent, calls it similarly. All of our grandparents who are "off the boat" have been calling it that since they came here and I suppose it has just stuck. At least here in America, you always know an Italian when they call it gravy.

Also, you can't get the stuff from the store - gotta make your own.

Post by: tyrian3 on March 22, 2011, 03:28:37 PM
I absolutely agree that you have to make your own to make it good :)

I didn't know you use to call it "gravy", anyway the same things happens here when a name even if it's not the most appropriate just sticks in the common use. Italian regions have many differences so it's common that the same thing gets a different name according to where you are in the country.

So you're of Italian heritage? that's great to hear :) where were your grandparents from?

Do you mean the "Catacombe"? I've never been there. I was in Rome just last weekend (as I said I'm not far from there) and taking advantage of the free museums/monuments entry for the 150th birthday of our unification I went to the Colosseo (or colosseum as you say, using the latin word) and to the Fori Imperiali and to the Liberation Museum and then I remembered I have never been to the catacombe but it was too late.
I've been to the Popes'tombs under the Vatican and to S.Peter's tomb.

You're here to socialize so we can all post entertaining things to read during our lunch break. Tell us something about yourself. What's your favorite movie?

Disney's Sleeping Beauty, of COURSE. Isn't that everyone's favorite movie?

half my face is showing, the other half is covered in shadows of darkness like my soul.

Actually, that's a Harry Potter dude, I've changed my avatar cause I'm playing in the mafia game. Ever played mafia?

Post by: ShyGuy on July 08, 2011, 03:25:18 PM
I prefer Beauty and the Beast.
Title: Re: Please come to the funhouse, we want to talk to you. Thankyou.
Post by: Lady Mushroom on July 08, 2011, 03:30:02 PM
Beauty and the beast is good too. I hardly ever see recent movies but I saw Sucker Punch 'cause a friend thought I would like the action scenes and I did.


The rest wasn't so great though, although I liked the layers of reality thing.


I've never played Mafia.

I like both of them.  Haven't seen Sleeping Beauty in a while even though I do have it.

You are all wrong.  Aladdin is better than both.  It has a monkey.

I think The Emporer's New Groove is underrated too.

I really like Aladdin.  Probably my favorite Disney Movie.  Though I really like Wall-e.

I like all the old Disney movies, but I think the dragon in Sleeping Beauty best matches the darkness of your soul.  Watch out for flying swords.
Title: Re: Please come to the funhouse, we want to talk to you. Thankyou.
Post by: Lady Mushroom on July 08, 2011, 03:42:10 PM
There are good movies without monkeys. There's King K… no forget that one.


There's Sleeping Beauty.

Maleficent is the best villain EVER - even when she isn't in dragon form.
Title: Re: Please come to the funhouse, we want to talk to you. Thankyou.
Post by: ShyGuy on July 08, 2011, 03:46:31 PM
Honestly, Sleeping Beauty seems a little stiff compared to Snow White and Cinderella.

Post by: KeyBilly on July 08, 2011, 03:48:52 PM
She only looks dead.  I doubt she has rigor mortis.

I agree about Maleficent.  The only thing that would make her scarier is if her lair was full of cats.

Post by: Lady Mushroom on July 08, 2011, 03:59:21 PM
I agree the animation isn't as fluid as in those others. Just LOVE Maleficent though. I mean in a hatey sort of way.

It might had been but, if memory serves it had a lot of fire,

It just seems that Aurora was always that other Princess of the Disney Princesses.  Interest fact this was the last movie that Disney did with hand inked cells and Walt Disney purposely wanted this movie to have a different art style from their previous Fantasy movies.

Found this under the Usage of the Sleeping Beauty Mytho on the Wikipedia page for it:
In the Nintendo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo) video game Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zelda_II:_The_Adventure_of_Link), a sleeping curse is put on Princess Zelda (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Zelda) by an evil wizard. Only Link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_%28The_Legend_of_Zelda%29) can break the curse, by reuniting the three pieces of the Triforce (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe_of_The_Legend_of_Zelda#Triforce).

I suppose Total Recall was kind of cool at the time

Their are some effects that hold up in Total Recall even today.  A lot that don't though.  I actually played the NES game before I could ever see the Movie.  Now the question is did he really do those things?

Just got the PM.
Well, I'm Xero! I am a Barbadian and am a Nintendo fan. I own consoles from Nintendo and its competitors but it's obvious who the favourite is.
Crazy adventures this week? Hmm... I chilled at the beach with a friend, went to see Transformers (the local theater FINALLY got 3D tech so I enjoyed the film in 3D), and hung out in the mall and had some laughs with my best friend. Played some games in between of course but you know how it is. :p

Random fact:

I have a friend who's DJ name is Shyguy. He DJ's with the mask on. Last time we hung out, we threw a rave in his basement. He mixed old school 8 bit tunes with dubstep and house. Needless to say, it was dope.

Speaking of making fun of Jon Lindemann, though, I noticed this while checking Facebook.

Who would've known that all it took was some free stationery?
