Miaow. Quit bitching fools! Life is too short

[Naouruki]

Your username leads me to ask you what part of Japan do you live or were born?

In this country we say Net-Link very much like I would say the generic term Sellotape or Hoover the those related products in England. In my day the White Japanese Saturn was called The Flash Saturn but it might not be written anywhere on the box/bumf.

`Yes I hate being nitpicky`

No one likes a clever clogs or a google search whore.

Mature of you to resort to pathetic insults and petty assumptions as 'google search whore'.

No one likes 'google search whores' then.
If the theme is running wild with pathetic insults married to wild pretentious assumptions, am I assume then that your ilk, Wapanese homosexual uptight sadomasochistic bastards are, in contrast, liked?

I've yet to hear the term ネト リンク used to describe the Saturn's online games among fellow Japanese Saturn enthusiasts. It may be used by some, just as some call DC's online services 'SEGA NETO' even though that wasn't the service's name in Japan. But to claim it is as widely and generically used as Kleenex is for tissue is bull**** I will call you on laughing. 'In this country...' indeed.

You seemed to be very technical about your Bomberman games and I clairified for the sake of such that calling the JP SS Bomberman a Netlink game was confusing it with the actual Netlink game and as such incorrect - the difference is not only in the region. That its online features are no longer functional because of the entirely different structure is a significant factor; how else is there differentiating between the two?

Nowhere did I resort to insults.

Yet you seem to think appropriate to believe that that is offensive to you, being 'clever' and a whore, while on the other hand descending to petty, petty insults is acceptable on your part. Typical, especially for a Wapanese. Tit for tat then?

Well then carry on wanking over yourself, you Wapanese 'whore'.

I think the most anal post 2006 has been won,and were not even halfway through the year!

Jesus.

EDIT- **** me,do we really need this **** here? Playground behaviour surely.

Also i think youll find the Saturn is not actually white,but number 11789 on the Pantone chart.

(may have made that up)

[Naouruki]

Call it what you like, but I'm not about to sit about and take his insults quietly. 'Google search whore'? I explain that he is mistaken and Yakumo is incorrect, the last post undoubtedly tinged with some sarcasm, but for this sad case to resort to petty directly personal insults?
You want a hand to blame for initiating playground behaviour, you know whose it is.

Atypically I expect the moderators to excuse him for being a longer-established member. Carry on with reports of retro finds, any replies from 'WAPJAC' or regarding him are worth no further reply on my part.

[JAPJAC]

Half an insult I beg your pardon. You gracefully playfully insulted yourself originally did you not? Therefore I would very much like to know where you learned such Net-Link related information if you do not reside in this country where I beg to differ they did/and do term it this regardless of what it might be officially referred to as. I bet it would be the aid of the World-Wide Web as opposed to other mediums of information so maybe I might be on the right tracks with my `insult`. Please prove me wrong.

Thank you for not answering my question regarding your username. I will therefore assume.

You write Chinese well. Love your username, wanabe (that`s the insult for you).

Cheers.

[Naouruki]

I have no need of answering your question as it is as irrelevant as you and your attempt over a pissing contest over Japanese origin.

You misspell and abuse hyphen usage very well, in addition to taking Katakana for Chinese - 'wanabe' (sic). Cheers.

[JAPJAC]

Japan invented Katakana from Hiragana from Chinese Kanji according to the Japanese person sitting next to me. Learn that.

[supersmithy]

Naouruki - the question is - does it really matter?

I bet you are the kind of person who scours ebay for mistyped titles of games, and then e-mails the seller to tell them that they are wrong, and you are right. Don't you have anything better to do? All this over the name of a now defunct online gaming service. ?_?

/goes back to off topic.

[Akihabara]

When I lived in Japan I always had problems with white people walking around like they own the place. Especially the ones who think they know everything about Japan and Japanese gaming, and the ones that argue over the word NETO RINKU, honestly who cares man...Go to Roppongi, have a steak at Friday's and relax...I hate Roppongi.

[JAPJAC]

Yes it is annoying, everyones an expert and I would be the first to admit that I know nothing about this country. Fair play, I`m English. What I learned was based about what a Japanese fella told me in a shop. I stand corrrected.

Matey told me once after 20 years of residing here that you will never know anything and I always remembered that. Theres nothing worse than a wanabe.

[Kizzycrew]

Post more pix please! Seriously, I'd go to off topic for this kind of stuff, not the retro thread.

Got a copy of Sonic 3 in the post to further my Sonic collection though!
Anyone got a manual for Sonic 2 going spare?

LMAO

I've checked my Pantone swatch book and i'd say its a 607CV depending on how suntanned it is

come on guys, this thread is for sharing what retro goodies we buy.. kick the bitchin' to the kerb!... personally I dont give a fook if its Netlink or not!

i'll be posting [hopefully tomorrow] pics of my greatest retro buy since getting my Saturn a couple of weeks ago

[importaku]

Damn it i leave the thread for a day & miss a handbag fight

[Distant Cousin]

lmao, that has to be the most pointless argument I've ever heard/read
