This is my way of coping with the loss of my pokemon T________T
Come! Discuss the crazy things that have happened to you on your video games. What glitches can you warn us of? What glitches are inexplicable? Anything you think is out of the ordinary.... This is where to post it! If anyone wishes to post, lemmie know!

Something you shouldn't Bear.

Moonsailor has kindly provided the glitch for today. Listen well....

One day, Moonsailor was playing The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe for the Gameboy Advance... and made the mistake of deciding to play a level that had already been beaten. Apparently, in this level, the player was supposed to rescue a cute little bear cub. After you find him, an earthquake occurs, causing your character to find another another way back to where you started.
Moonsailor went to find the cub this second time and SURPRIZE! The ground beneath Moonsailor began to violently shake. The earthquake was already happening before Moonsailor could even approach!
This glitch is classified as "Loop Obstical" in my book, meaning you are stuck in a game's particular level because the gameplay itself has been affect to the point that it will not allow you to proceed.
Moonsailor explained that this this obstical was was particularily frustrating, "because you can't beat that particular level without finding the bear."

Ugh. I can only imagine how irritating that must be. Good grief! It's sad that the poor bear cub will be trapped forever too!

Moral of the story: hmmm. This is more of a programming moral. Expect that the player will more than likely repeat their favorite stages and take the time to even out any game play abnormalities that may occur from playing any particular stage a second time. The last thing you want is to have your players be punished for enjoying a particular level of the game!

~Wall-iE

Thanks Moonsailor!

weird tune

Well, after I defeated the elite four 101 times something odd DID happen on pokemon yellow... the music in my PC is all squeaky on pokemon league hall of Famers #69......

What if Yusuke never went to hanging neck island?

That is what I asked myself after I beat the YYH game "Ghost files" for the PS2.

The game follows a linear path that is strict to the actual series, beginning when Younger Toguro fights you (Yusuke) to test your strength, and ending once you win the Dark Tournament.

So what happens if instead of losing against Toguro when he tests your strength you win??? This thought intrigued me, so of course I went through and tried it. Just a heads up though, this isn't a glitch. This is another wonder buster like the one I did when I beat the Elite four 100 times ^_^

I took my time, created a strategy, knocked him down, and guess what happened? Well, I myself couldn't remember it exactly, so right before writing this post, I did it AGAIN.

This is what happened: Yusuke wins!
Then a scene pops up where I'm on the ground huffing and puffing. "Yusuke you idiot! He's too strong!"

Me: No he's not! I just $&*@! beat him!!!!!

Then this message pops up: Im not even kidding you XD

Chance has smiled upon you! However, it's almost impossible you could win against younger Toguro again. To hedge your bets, you will now continue your training.
Press X to continue.

XD

So basically, it was inevitable. I was going to have to beat every level after that and watch every scene anyway.

Moral= Unlike what you may be thinking, the moral here is not that fate is allpowerful. No. Either way I had to continue the game because otherwise the rip off would not be that I won against Toguro but had to continue playing, the rip off would be that I bought a game, beat it in the first level, and had to send it back. WHere would the fun be there? It's like those GooseBump choose your own adventure stories where, if you make the right decision to return home, rather than enter the spooky house, it tells you you don't have a choice, continue to page four. It gives you the choice and then takes the choice away because there is no adventure without conflict.
ANYWAYS the real moral of the story here is that the human is better than the machine. I beat that "impossoble to beat bad guy" four times. While the computer used brute force, I
took my time, blocking his attacks and then hitting him when I saw an opening. Patience, good judgement and risks will always conquer what a computer will try to predict. Always remember that!

~Wallie out!

Who needs the Megaton Hammer?

When Zelda, Ocarina of time fist came out for the N64, my cousin bought it. When I watched him play the first time, I thought it was so cool that he could swim without drowning and ride a horse and jump! He was defeating th Water Temple at the time.
Then I went out and got the game, and defeated the whole game again and again. Then I learned that my cousin had not defeated it yet. He let me play his game one day and I went to an area where I knew there to be a hidden grotto. Pressing start, I went through my items, searching for the megaton hammer.

Me- Uh. Where's your hammer?
"Hammer? Just use a bomb."
Me- Didn't you defeat the Fire temple?
"Duh!"
Me- There's a giant totem that leads to the Boss Key. You have to smash that totem to bits in order to get the Key, defeat the Boss, and pass the fire temple.
"Oh that? I just pushed it out of the way.
Me- 0_o? You can't push it out of the way, You need the hammer!
"I have no idea what you are talking about!"

So I think that may be why he did not defeat the game: He didn't have the Megaton Hammer (which you use many times thereafter!)

Moral of the story:Just because you are strong enough to push massive totems out of the way, does not mean that you should ignore the help that tools or other people have to offer. If you simply rely on brute strength you will find, when you are in a crisis, that your resources are very limited.

Elite 4 knock down!

Whoo hoo! I did it!!!
Good news: I beat the elite four on pokemon yellow 100 times!!!!!!!!!!!
Bad news: You know the rumor that if you beat the elite 4 100 times, then Lance will give you a secret HM 06 Blast, that can crush the barriers dividing cities and the ocean? Well, I have experimentally determined that that rumor is FALSE.
As far as I can tell, no such power exists.

Well it was fun. Maybe I'll fight them another 100 times.... if I have the time...

Oh by the way, my Pidgeot "Aluthiana" is taking a break from fighting. The last time I saw her she was surfing in the Cinnibar isles. Yes... My Pigeot ALSO knows surf.
Adieu!
