Need to work on getting my loops not wonky when following a line (and also everywhere else). Also need kitty cat to not play with the strings because his pretty paw pulled too hard and undid a full row.
When we adopted this good looking fellow a year and a half ago, we were told that he might be a bit over one year old. He was a rescuee that apparently appeared out of nowhere, so there wasn't much medical info for him besides that he was healthy, had his adoption home provided shots and sterilization and stuff like that.
Fast forward to today, the vet told us that, according to the state of his teeth, he's either between 5-7 years of age or had very questionable eating habits before getting rescued. We're in the middle of doing a bunch of tests on him to either confirm or discard feline asthma, and see what else could be causing a cough that comes and goes. It's a timely and stressful process, so comfy reads in a comfy device are a must.
Oh, well. We love him all the same. He likes laying down close (but not too close) to me when it's reading time. Also likes rubbing his face against the Kindle.
He might be half as impressed as I am that this K4 has lasted this long!
El gato estaba posando lindo y me digo que quedaría re lindo si saliera la portada. Voy, le doy a las páginas lo más sutil que puedo para que no se vaya hasta llegar a la portada, tomo fotos porque obviamente voy a tomarlas y medio que me perdí.
Por suerte me acordaba de lo que había leído así que tocó adivinar la página y encontrar el último párrafo que había leído. Está bastante lindo, ayuda a aligerar que justo antes de empezar *Te receto un gato* había terminado *El Túnel* de Sábato (excelente lectura, un viaje).
El peludo se llama Wellington pero le gusta que lo llamen "comida" o "jamón", porque cuando decís eso sí viene.
Book in progress: The Tunnel by Ernesto Sábato.
Loving Stardew on the RG DS, especially because the Android version has SMAPI available, which means I can mod it as much as I want (and as much as the device will handle).
Feels super good on a touch screen!
Pokemon constantly comes up when discussing the RG DS because, well, they're Pokemon, but what do you play once you're done with them or worse, when you don't like them?
That's me, I don't like mainline Pokemon games. I did enjoy Pokemon Lazarus a lot, and I guess with the amount of romhacks out there, Pokemon enthusiasts have a lot to play through.
I would like to share a weekly post about games that feel ideal on the RG DS because it's good to learn about games, to diversify one's tastes and whatnot. Pokemon games don't need mentioning, but maybe someone needs to be reminded of Harvest Moon, or needs to learn about fan translations in general.
So, this week's post is basic, as the title says. Will take mentions in the comments into consideration for next week's selection! I'm planning to include vertical arcade thingies and Android games too, considering that the stock OS is Android and that GammaOS is Android based too. I use GammaOS, so someone else will have to mention Rocknix stuff.
I also met my 10 book Goodreads goal today, yay!
Currently reading The Tunnel by Ernesto Sábato.
So, the jailbreak. I'd factory reset my Kindle months ago for reasons I don't remember and was never able to sing into my Amazon account on it again even after following the instructions to the letter. Fine, okay, I had been sideloading DRM free ebooks for a while because the thing still works, no need to update, just get stuff in a way that makes sense for it.
But because I didn't have access to Amazon, I couldn't use Winterbreak. Maybe would have never been able to, but NiLuJe's legacy method worked after I disconnected the device from the internet and updated with all the files. I'm not tech savvy enough to correctly explain what I did, but I followed those steps, and here I am.
I swear I go a bit Gollum mode when talking to other people about the RG DS.
Stickers were purchased at a local showroom here in Argentina. Game on screen is Super Princess Peach.
Flor Kaneshiro is the illustrator behind the more Japanese like stickers, she's great, has illustrated for board game companies and Playstation. I love love love her style so much.
Cat is in dire need of shaming because he's asthmatic and his medicine is expensive. Boohoo, cat, boohoo. Shame on you.
I've got two sets of stickers, a cherry blossom one and a Snoopy one.
You can see that I originally covered my RG DS' exterior in cooking appliances and pastries, and they're cute, but there's not much order or style to the chaos.
So I'm leaning towards the cherry blossom one because I found a sticker set with illustrations by one of my favorite artists, Flor Kaneshiro, so her illustrations would be the focus and I'd use others as a frame.
But then I also found that Snoopy and Laika one and I melted! I love Laika so much, every time I think about her, I cry, and Snoopy is also a favorite of mine. The big one would be a great center piece, and I got others to fill in the extra space, some stars and space stuff too.
I think that, had I gone with the shimmery blue model, I'd be more certain in using the Snoopy stickers, but the white model will surely look cuter with cherry blossoms.
Thoughts?
PS. All of these were bought as a local showroom here in Argentina.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.
Stretching the image is another non issue on a screen of these dimensions, but that's next week's talk.
I may be very bad at Kirby, because that's not a good score for that point in Dreamland, but I can't say I care.
I also followed Crystal's guide for changing the color palette in Gameboy games, for which TechDweeb has also made some palettes if you're not inclined to make everything pink like I did.
Bobo Bay just came out earlier today! And fully released also! Not that there's anything wrong with early access, but it's great to see the game come out feature and content complete.
It's so cute!! Exactly what I wanted from a spiritual successor to Sonic Adventure 1 and 2's Chao Garden.
I'm already attached to my very first bobo, a little thing I named Cacao, because he reminds me of an old Hershey's kiss (you know when the sugar in the chocolate gets like a bit crystalized and makes the chocolate look two shades lighter? That color, if that makes sense).
Only on PC (and Steam Deck, because it's a PC) for now, but the dev has expressed their interest in porting it to other consoles! Crossing my fingers for Bobo Bay to do well so it can reach more people.
Years ago, I tried playing Layton's games through their mobile ports but they simply don't feel right to me, this does! They feel right at home on the RG DS.
I suppose most people are familiar with Tomodachi Life for the 3DS, but not everyone knows about the Japanese exclusive Tomodachi Collection for the DS. There's a fanmade English patch for it!
Because the English patch replaces katakana with transcriptions of each syllable's sound, you can't write letter by letter, but it works, I'm having fun with the little guys and their little songs.
Pictured is Bayonetta, from Bayonetta, but I've also made Anders, Fenris, Merrill and Isabela from Dragon Age, and Reinhardt and Kircheis from The Legend of the Galactic Heroes.
He kept nosing at the lower screen, does like when I play Nintendogs and make the dogs bark.
Hello!
I made a version of this bingo card when there was a RG DS channel in Anbernic's server (there still might be one, but I left the server a loooong time ago), back when the device had first leaked and then officially announced. It's been a while since then, lots has happened, but now that we've got the thing in our hands, why not bring this back?
This is a fun first bingo, which means that you'll fill it in whatever manner suits you best: feel free to try one game per square, or use one game to mark as many squares as you think it would apply to.
You're encouraged to mark squares and share your progress as you do, if you'd like! Some squares require you to get a recommendation, so here's mine to get you started.
For these squares...
... You can try Nanashi no Geemu/The Nameless Game! Has a pretty impressive fan translation patch, more than 50% of the playtime is dedicated to vertical sections and, well, I recommend it! I know it says 'purely' but let's bend our arm a little, the main thing is, again, to have fun!
I like how the top and thumbsticks turned out but i may re-dye a couple buttons and the backplate to be more darker.
