New GamePad battery won’t work

So, I ordered a new higher capacity Gamepad battery from Ifixit (like, fresh out of the box new), and I tried installing the new battery with the instructions provided on Nintendo’s website. But when I go to charge it, the indicator light stays black. I’ve readjusted the battery several times, and even checked to see if the plug was loose, and got the same result, but my old battery works perfectly fine. Does anyone know why my new battery isn’t working?

Anyone know any fingering for the Air Force theme?

So, I have a friend who’s currently off in Air Force basic training, and I decided to pick the ocarina back up while he was gone. I bought a better quality Ocarina of Time replica than the one I already had from STL at an anime convention a few weeks ago, and I kinda wanted to learn the Air Force theme in honor of my friend, since he’s graduating next week.

Anyone know of any fingering for the theme, as I don’t know where all the notes are on the ocarina yet? 😅

What can I use to get better quality picture on my old consoles?

So, I have an N64 that I have hooked up to a new(ish) HDMI TV using an AC to HDMI adapter. However, the display looks awful compared to even a CRT TV, and I just want better quality picture. I don’t have the space or money to go buy a CRT, so that’s out of the question, at least for now.

I’m not saying I want it as pristine as, say, how retro games look on the NSO service, but I just want to upgrade the quality at least a little bit to get it looking better. What can I do to improve the image quality?

Which high capacity battery should I buy for my GamePad?

So, someone recommended to me to buy a high capacity battery for my WiiU GamePad since my original one’s about toast. I’d prefer to buy one on Amazon, but I’ll buy it elsewhere if it’s better to do so.

So, what battery should I buy?

Real or fake SM64 copy?

So, I’m trying to find a copy of SM64 to add to my N64 library (I only have two, Zelda OOT and MK64), and I got an offer from an eBay seller that is a pretty good deal. However, I’m kinda suspicious about it. The front label looks legit to me, but I can’t tell 100% if the cartridge is real or just a reproduction cartridge.

So, is it real?

Is it possible to change the Gamepad battery?

So, I’ve had my WiiU since the Christmas after it launched, and just recently got it modded. I just recently booted it back up to try to play and beat Twilight Princess HD, and I’ve noticed that my Gamepad doesn’t hold a charge like it used to. In my teenage years, I could play my WiiU for up to 6 hours without having to plug the Gamepad back in, but now I can’t leave my console on for more than an hour and a half without the red light blinking on the Gamepad.

I don’t want to replace the whole Gamepad, as I have so much nostalgia playing that console with my dad and sister, so I think just replacing the battery will do the trick. Is that possible?

[TPHD] Midna’s shadow is still there in the World of Light

I don’t know if the original TP has this as well, but I noticed this while I was playing TPHD. I’m currently at the part where Link gets the Ordon Sword and Shield. Midna isn’t on Link’s back in this scene, but if you look closely Midna’s shadow is still there, idle animations and all. Not too much of a dealbreaker, but I think it was kinda cool to see this little detail. 😅

Need help regarding exercises for a pelvic tilt

I’m 22, I’m 5’4, I think I’m 175 lbs, and I’m female.

So, I just recently discovered that I have an anterior pelvic tilt, and might’ve had this problem for years. I’m trying to find some exercises that I can do on carpet to fix it. I’m sick of my belly sticking out for no reason, so I want to start making it go away.

So, what are some exercises I can do to improve my pelvic tilt?

I want a Dark Mousy Mii

So, I’m a huge fan of this older anime series called DN Angel, and one of the main characters is a Phantom Thief named Dark. Dark is my favorite character in the series, and I really want him as a Mii on my island in the new Tomodachi Life game. Problem is, I’m not very skilled at the face painting feature, and I tend to avoid using it whenever possible. Does anyone know if there’s a way to make Dark with minimal face painting possible?

Also, I do know that he’ll be hard to make because of his wild hairstyle, so here’s a few shots of him from the show and in official artwork. 💜

Any idea on how to get torn stickers off without rubbing the printed code off?

So, I bought my copies of Rune Factory 4 and My Japanese Coach at GameXChange, and anyone who’s ever been there knows they stick these price stickers on them that refuses to come off completely. I thought about using GooGone to get it off, but I’m worried about accidentally rubbing the factory codes off the back. Anyone got any solutions?

I can’t find a Link hat pattern I attempted a little while ago!

So, I attempted to use a pattern for a Link hat from The Legend of Zelda to wear at an anime convention about a year ago, but the finished product came out too small. I had used yarn that was too stiff. With the same convention coming up this year, I want to try again, this time with better yarn and a tension ring, but can’t find the pattern anywhere!

The specific pattern I used had you crochet in rounds, and started out with sc, but gradually went to hdc, and finally, dc. Does anyone know which pattern I used?

Genuine question: Did any games for the system actually utilize the D-Pad?

So, I did not grow up with the N64, in fact, it and nearly all its games released before I was even born, so I don’t know much about how its games run.

I bought an N64 and a copy of Ocarina of Time a couple months ago, and noticed there’s no functionality for the D-Pad on the left side of the controller. I’m really curious if any of the N64 games actually utilized it or not. Can anyone tell me? 😅

Am I the only one who noticed that the music will sometimes randomly restart for no reason in the remake of Luigi’s Mansion Dark Moon?

So, the 3DS version of LMDM is one of my favorite games of all time, and was stoked to receive LM2HD for Christmas this year. I just started getting around to playing it (schoolwork had not been kind to me this semester), and realized that sometimes the music will randomly cut back to the beginning of the track in the middle of a loop. It drives me nuts, since I love listening to the background music while playing, and it really annoys me when it just randomly starts over. Am I the only one who noticed this?

Real Vampire Knight Blu-Rays?

So, I’m planning on getting my copy of the Vampire Knight series signed by a couple of the voice actors at a convention in July. The convention has a strict no bootleg policy, meaning voice actors cannot sign counterfeit or bootleg items, and even though I’m almost 100% certain these are real, I’d like to get a second opinion on it before I actually take them.

So, are these real?

Can someone help me make a Mii of Zero from Vampire Knight with little to no makeup?

So, I want Zero on my island, but the problem is that I’m not very confident in my makeup skills, so I’d like no makeup or just VERY minimal makeup. Think that’s possible?

Is it normal for the 3D function to be disabled while playing Persona Q2?

So, I got a deal on a copy of Persona Q2 for a lower-than-usual price. I got up to the point where the Phantom Thieves, with Kotone tagging along, are rescuing Makoto and Haru from Kamoshidaman, when I noticed the 3D function (yes, I use it, don’t tease me, lol) wasn’t on, even though I had my slider all the way up. Is this normal for the game, or is there something wrong with my cartridge?

Seriously?!

UPDATE: So, it is coming in Monday after all! For some strange reason, it hadn’t been scanned for departure at the destination facility. Apparently, USPS might be having some issues with their departure scans, since I haven’t gotten one since it left Dallas on Thursday. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I ordered a rare game a few days ago, and it was supposed to come in yesterday, but for some reason, it got held up at the destination facility. No worries, I need to focus on schoolwork anyway since it’s the end of the year, so I can play it on Monday, right?

Wrong. Apparently, it’s still in Shreveport, and by the looks of it, unless it arrives at the post office by the end of the night, it’s not coming in tomorrow either.

I know it’s just a small inconvenience, but this game is pretty rare, and I got a good deal on it, so I’ll be really mad if it doesn’t come in.

[Buying] Anyone have a case for Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth?

So, I just bought a copy of Persona Q2, and it’s coming loose with no case or manual. I try to keep cases because I like displaying what games I have, but the loose copy was a lot cheaper than one with a case.

So, would anyone happen to have a spare case for Persona Q2 lying around? NTSC is preferred, but any region will be fine.

(No, I haven’t finished the first one yet, lol)

I cannot believe my luck! I had my eye on this copy for a couple days now. I decided to snag it when I realized there was a banner by it that said “In 1 cart”. I knew I wasn’t going to find another copy for this cheap, so I bought it!

Can’t wait for it to come in!! 😁😁😁
