It says something about this board that was have a Shmups sub-forum and lump FPS in with the "Everything Else" category, rather than putting them both in a Shooters sub.

It mostly says that we're retro as fuck. I approve.

It says that we're better than the plebian majority.

I dunno I think we need a Pong/Breakout subforum.

We clearly need a Flappy Bird sub-forum.

Oh, man, Baseball Stars is so good on the NGPC. I'm not a big fan of sports games either, but I can play Baseball Stars all day. Baseball Stars 2 is the only sports game on my PS3.
Just wait until you guys try Pocket Tennis Color. It is one of my favorite tennis video games, hands down.

I spent some time playing that one, too. It's also fantastic, but I'm partial to the Mario Tennis series for my video game tennis.

UNO is actually bizarrely popular in Japan. I used to play it a lot with students.
And coincidentally, this morning I discovered this comic about if Uno was a manga.
Part 2 here.

I still wanna get it too. It strokes my weeaboo sensibilities.

Oh, and since the manga strip was mentioned, may as well link the animated version.

I still like how some of my friends refer to FPS as "Shootie shoot games."

If we make a sub-forum for them, I demand we call it that.

You can just link to the twitch recording of the guy who injects it into SMW live while streaming and close that forum riiiight down cuz it'll never get better.
