Capcom's efforts in 3D arcade gaming towards the end of the 90's were interesting but often looked over history. When Capcom started making 3D fighters on there own, Street Fighter EX doesn't count, things were rocky. However by the end of the 90's, Capcom started getting their stride down and expirementing. One of there more interesting experiments with 3D fighting that yielded a result was Power Stone, which turns 16 today in Japan. Power Stone best represents Capcom's experiments 3D and going beyond a game that just felt like another spin on Street Fighter.
I had topic for today's blog this morning but now I can't remember what I was thinking.
So I went out today after class to get the new Fire Emblem... Yeah, not a one to be found. I will wait a few weeks to see if I can get bouth of them.

I went on an enormous shopping spree for Disney Infinity and Skylanders figures yesterday. Gamestop still had it's buy-2-get-3-free sale and Toys R Us had a buy-1-get-2-free sale. Here is all the stuff in six pictures:
Project X-Zone 2 is a strategy RPG starring popular video game characters from Bandai Namco, SEGA, Capcom, and Nintendo. Last time on this blog series, we looked at the characters from SEGA and Nintendo. Today, we’ll look at the ones from Bandai Namco.
Vampire Savior, Darkstalkers 3, is slowly becoming one of my favorite fighting games. Having done a retrospective over the whole Darkstalkers series made me realize how amazing the series was especially with Vampire Savior. Of course, falling in love with Vampire Savior leads to the enviable problem everyone who loves the game and Darkstalkers series: the soul crushing longing for a fourth one. Today there are quite a few games that kind of come close to a Vampire 4: Skullgirls, Killer Instinct 2013, and even Street Fighter V. However, if you want a game that comes really close to a Vampire 4 that actually came out around Vampire Savior, your best bet is a little known gem known as Asura Buster.
I'm still early in the process of downloading all the graphic novels and not so graphic novels I have purchased on Humble. The regular novels I'm just downloading as ePubs with the rest as HQ PDFs some of which approach 1 GB in size. I have downloaded 42 items so far and I've reached the letter C.
Hey. I like podcasts. I'm in one. It's terrible. Don't tell Joe I said that. This site also does a whole host of great podcasts up there where it says podcasts. Seriously, listen to them. Some of them are great.
So this morning instead of digging through the minifigure bins I decided to go with another building block like figures for today’s picture of the day.
I went back to the same used media shop and they did not have anything new on the shelf. I think that I might make more regular stops, just to see if they get any new NES or even SNES games in. Gamestop has been offering Retro classic on their website at competetive prices, and they still had Crystalis in stock. So, I ordered that and a first-party NES controller. I still don't have the means to play the games, but I am still looking into the clone machines. The Retron 5 sounds appealing to me, I like the idea of playing my GBA games on the big screen.
Yes, I missed a day of bad. I feel so slack. Anyway, I will post a true BaD today.
...So it's partly my fault that I lost track of time..Partly cause of stuff I had to get done like dishes and whatnot..But yeh..Lots of things I would like to get to..Not a lot of time to ever reasonably get to them..Like drawing ideas..Meant to do more especially for February but..Ended up barley doing as much...It's almost the end of February too..It's warming up here even though it rained a bit..Oh right, I got a new game for my PSVita that I've been having a blast with, I may make a post of it..Not sure how soon.(Speaking of PSVita stuff I do still have Tales of Hearts R to play though..)I do have screenshots to compile that I took using the PSVita's handy feature..I also realized I didn't really get to dumping stuff like photos and doodles like I had originally thought about doing..But here is one, a fanart from 2015..December I believe.(With some work-in-progress shots for fun..)
