Yeah, that's why I try to avoid stacking the balls if I could. I'm going to do some recording on the halloween version of the game, before it ends after tomorrow.

There is a good kind of frustrating, and a bad kind of frustrating. The bad kind of frustrating is when anger takes control of you and you damage property or take it out on others. The good kind of frustrating is when a game has the right level of challenge that, while frustrating and perhaps anger inducing, makes you to want to persevere and overcome the challenge. I won't lie and say games don't make me angry, cause they do. It's important to keep a cool head and focus on what you're trying to achieve.

I can relate to this. As a teen, I used to experience the bad kind of frustrating where my cousin used to kick my ass in Smackdown Vs. Raw 2006, and I just lost it and punched him in the arm. He was the same age as you, btw. Over the years, I've learned to deal with it the right way. Losing in video games, or not doing something right, irritates me too.
I really do miss you game raging and all. I know that's not you now, but I sure would love to see it. Which is why I kept trying to get you to play Need for Speed III Hot pursuit PS1.

My main reluctance is because it wouldn't be genuine anger. Artifical anger can still be entertaining, as proven by AVGN. He writes scripts, does video editing, has high quality equipment, etc, I feel like the quality wouldn't be anywhere near as good as him. As for genuine anger, Poofesure is one of the best at that. I just can't picture myself getting that angry.

It sounded like genuine anger to me, when you got frustrated playing with the Crash Bandicoot games.

Never mispronounce Pokemon in front of Pokemon fans. ? @ Uptight 534 Apparently Football players enjoy playing with Pokemon cards.

Seeing this makes me happy because I remember playing with Hotwheels as a 7 year old kid.

It seems Williams is a fan of anime in general, since he is wearing a Naruto jacket/hoodie and a headband. You would be surprised at the amount of people that like anime.
With the mispronunciation, I have had people tell me the way he said it (Poe-Kee-Mon) is incorrect and the proper pronunciation is Poe-Kuh-Mon. Looking it up, the most correct English pronunciation may be Poe-Kay-Mon.

I'm an anime fan, myself. I used to go to comic con conventions with my buddies a few years ago. I've always thought that Pokemon was pronounced Poe-Kee-Mon. But, I have heard the Pokemon TV shows say "Poe-Kay-Mon", so maybe that's the correct pronunciation.

@ Mia I'm getting ready to release a tutorial video on the Suika game that talks about the anime characters, plus some tips and all. Tell me what your thoughts are once it's done, ok?

I know it seems wordy, but I had to give the people the facts.
