Alright, I hear you. No more weird Eevee, just actual ones for the XD run.
...nevermind the weird bear-looking one, that's totally an Eevee too.

So it turns out the GU stands for GUt punch... ow...
We're almost done with second tournament at least, let's keep on in Volume 2.

I, uh.
Did not expect the funny cart post to up and take off.
Soooo did you know I stream on Twitch- ...ahem.
Quick answers though: No to the tape, shell and no PCB means it won't stay in, and the rumble pak's 3x the price. Isn't seen as a cart to a GBA, but that's the desired outcome.
Nintendo DS Memory Expansion Pak. It's useless in a Game Boy Advance.
Me: Using a GBA as a controller makes me nervous about the empty cartridge slot, I wish I could like take one of those DS Lite dust covers and put it in a bigger shell.
Also me, an intellectual and seeing one these for nearly the same cost as any 3D-printed cover:
In case this is seen between Bluesky falling over itself...
Doing some Air Riders practice today, since K-STAR's coming up soon! Let's see how things go.

The Great Beam Adventure's been going pretty smoothly! Let's keep it going with Klonoa: Empire of Dreams, and maybe see if this really is a game I want to learn in the future.
Wahoo.

So we're right near the end of Battle Network! Let's see if we can power ourselves up a bit more on the way to the final section!
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
So we managed to beat Colosseum with our two weird vees. But how will they fare with the postgame stuff? Might have something else lined up if needed.

"What about second breakfast" meme but it's about tournament arcs in .hack//G.U.
Someone else's intrusive thoughts won
Last Recode has decided to introduce me to a sudden sequel and threw me into Tournament Arc 2.

We're still getting through Battle Network for the Great Beam Adventure! But the power's out so we don't have much battery. Uhhhhhh
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
Hell, if anything, I'm still reeling right there with you for a lot of the same reasons, even years after she passed. But I'm glad I've gotten to know you and can call you a friend. Know that I've got your back regardless 💚
I feel like I just looked at a mirror with how similar a lot of stuff was for us. No family business stuff, but I remember my mother pushing accounting with me a lot "because of how well I did at it" and flunking out of college hard with the health issues she had and biting off way too much besides.
Sorry for the late start, Lan didn't wanna get out of bed again. But let's continue Battle Network for the Great Beam Adventure and show the best way to handle a virus is to throw hands*
*not an actual endorsement

Alright, let's continue the Great Beam Adventure and see what we're off on today!
...oh.
Oh, it's the GBA Sonic 1 port. Oh no.
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
These weird Eevee are still making it Orre's problem, maybe we can get through the final story gauntlet?
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
I'm... not sure if AIDA glitches double as an egg hunt...
Starting volume 2 of Last Recode.
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
I swear tech's haunted... anyway, a bit late, but let's continue the Great Beam Adventure with the second game I handpicked for this! We'll be going through Bomberman Tournament as we apparently... also get a bunch of mons-looking things...

Me tossing a submission into this be like:
So I'm live again. With a Bad Idea(tm).
@ohheyitjaye.bsky.social, @mantaplant.bsky.social and I are trying to race through the RA set for Kirby's Epic Yarn.
Send help.
(Or give me even more GBA games to enjoy/suffer through later.)
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
At any rate, so yeeeeeah. Let's just get the last stamp in 3D World. Might do more later, but for now we'll get this done.
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
Anyways, unless I emulate, this necessitates a change of plans, so I might either just do Air Riders stuff or see if we can get through 3D World with Rosalina and get the final stamp today, and then play Bomberman Tournament tomorrow once the battery comes in.
So tiny problem, I think the battery's totally dead now and this kinda sucks to encounter right as the console challenge starts. Good thing I went ahead and got a new battery, though... either way, I can't get it to come back to life and I don't really wanna resort to emulation this soon.
It does seem to get life back for a bit after receiving power, though, and I've already ordered a new battery. But it won't be here until tomorrow. So I'm debating if I take my chances with Bomberman Tournament/emulate it instead, or if we float that so we can avoid potential data loss.
Turns out my flashcart complaining about a dry battery might be a bigger issue than I thought. I forgot that it also uses that to store save data to write to the micro SD the next time you boot up, and I'm about to play a game where having save data's very important...
How I feel lately about pushing for a 74 in this game lmao.
(I love Zelda 2, it's better than OoT)
Yeah, sooooo Venus tried to wall us with our starters in Colosseum. So let's see if these weird looking Eevee break through this time.
twitch.tv/beamqueensol
Just ended stream, and uh. Yeah, this going to be a hell of a ride and kickoff from the 5-year milestone. I still can't thank all of you enough, here's to another 5 years that I hope will be even wilder.
Also y'all would find a way to make the Sonic 1 port the very first redeem LMAO
