I'll be with my two grandparents, my uncle (which is their son), his wife and kid. Also two doggos.

I don't think I'll be playing stuff today, I'm busy with other stuff.

[Anonymous No.4493712]

>>4493672
Don't care, already passed too many new years this was to care.

[Anonymous No.4493726]

My hope tonight is that the wife goes to bed around the same time our kid does so that I can squeeze in a solid hour - hour and a half of game time. Then fall asleep in my warm bed at wee late hour of 9pm :^)

[Anonymous No.4493727]

Probably playing Mortal Kombat 2 with the wife. Maybe bust out guitar hero after some drinks.

[Anonymous No.4493730]

>>4493727
Who do you and your wife main.

[Anonymous No.4493731]

>>4493672
I'm going to be playing Melee and Puyo Tetris with friends.

[Anonymous No.4493732]

This board isn't s'bad. It's nowhere near as bad as r9k. I just looked at it. Wew.

[Anonymous No.4493741]

Bro, just slip her a sleeping aide. I do it all the time. Harmless stuff, yknow. The other the counter kind.

Drop two in a mug of tea or coco, she won’t know what hit her! ;)

[Anonymous No.4493747]

>>4493730
She's best with scorpion. I'm probably best with Liu kang or baraka. But we play it so you have to pick a new character when you win. It keeps it fun and balanced.

[Anonymous No.4493748]

>>4493747
Hmmm, Scorpion is high tier.

[Anonymous No.4493775]

I've got my scruffy li'l scared-of-fireworks dog to keep me company.
But prob Sonic3&Knuckles, maybe Mario2 if I can be arsed to connect the Nintendo. Can't even remember if I've cleaned any of the NES carts since I rediscovered them in the cellar.
I toyed with the idea of playing Mario and timing it so I get full fireworks at the end of a level right when the clock hits midnight, but it seemed a little pointless. Coulda made a funny webm maybe.

[Anonymous No.4493785]

Honestly, I'd probably be going out and getting wasted with my drinking buddies at the same dive bar I've been going to on a weekly basis for the past 10 years of my life. I would, but I'm pretty sure I've got a urinary tract infection or something and I'm still waiting on my piss test results back from the doctor. Pretty sure drinking would only make it worse given I need to take a piss every 15 minutes anyway.

[Anonymous No.4493796]

>>4493775

That sounds cute AF desu (no homo)

[Anonymous No.4493812]

Is that corgo declawed wtf

[Anonymous No.4493814]

Probably play some Genesis or SNES in the afternoon, then some vanilla WoW raid with my guild. I've never really cared about New Year's Eve though. I hung out with my friends drinking and playing cards last night. Plus I work tomorrow.

[Anonymous No.4493958]

Mario Party. By myself.

[Anonymous No.4493972]

Blade Runner on the retro side of things. Maybe some Deus Ex (which isn't retro cause 2000 release date)

[Anonymous No.4493973]

my wife's ass 2018 some obscure doom megawad

[Anonymous No.4494016]

this feel is real. i have to take amphetamines in the midday so i'll have enough energy to read or play vidya after my girls go to sleep.

[Anonymous No.4494047]

What's with this boogeyman, haven't been there in my life.

[Anonymous No.4494113]

Bought Rogue Squadron on a whim so that, maybe pull out the PS1 later too.

[Anonymous No.4494136]

>>4493672

Probably something not retro, or else I'll just be asleep anyhow.

I don't know anything that'd be special to play then anyway. The End Day (October 1, 1997) is already long past, and we still have 72 years left until 2090, at which point there will finally, once again, be time for Klax. Maybe some of those games set in 20XX?

>I've got my scruffy li'l scared-of-fireworks dog to keep me company.
It's really shitty that people know animals suffer a lot with fireworks but they do it anyways.
Also, fireworks is literally burning money away, it's not fun past the age 7 or 8 so it's entertainment for very low IQ individuals, and even if humans don't get scared like animals do, there's also sick people, old agonizing people, and newborn babies.
On top of that, driving or just crossing the street during holidays is dangerous because of the amount of drunken people driving.

on topic: I'll be playing Kirby Super Star, first time playing this game and wow, it's amazing. The controls are incredible.

[Anonymous No.4494209]

>>4494167
As I said on some other thread recently I'd like a game with Kirby's controls that was challenging.

[Anonymous No.4494214]

>>4493672
I still have a group of friends that hang out every so often, so I'm going to a party and I'll be playing this while hanging out.
We're all autists so it won't be great desu

I think you dropped your fedora on the ground there.

[Anonymous No.4494232]

>>4494215
Just because he said that fireworks are annoying?

[Anonymous No.4494238]

>>4494215
>if anyone considers another human stupid, let he be mocked with fedora memes!
dropped your pacifier and diaper, there, SJW.

[Anonymous No.4494274]

>>4494232
Not him, but fedora due to the connotation used.

>>4494167
You are narrow minded af. I use them to teach my kids about chemistry and physics. They are fun and educational. I get the feeling you also hate parades and celebrations in general.

To get back on topic. I'm playing Zelda 2 tonight. Side scrolling, adventurous comfiness in a green hat.

[Anonymous No.4494286]

Probably either megaman 2/3/6 or some sonic 2 or if I hate myself enough sonic 2 game gear

[Anonymous No.4494394]

>>4494274
If there was no other way to teach your kids about physics and chemistry, I would understand, but come on.
It's obnoxious and loud, not to mention dangerous for kids.

Nice pick with Zelda 2 though

[Anonymous No.4494395]

I already did. I played and finished Snatcher (Sega CD) for the first time. I honestly didn't know the game was set in Christmas.

[Anonymous No.4494410]

I'm sick, I sent my gf home early today so she didn't catch it. I'm just gonna blast some old hair metal and play doom multiplayer.

[Anonymous No.4494414]

>>4494286
Man, if you can play Sonic 2 on MD then just get a flashcart or a power base converter and play the SMS Sonic 2. Way better option.

>>4493958
I would play with you anon, if there's an N64 emulator that doesn't shit the bed doing Mario Party multiplayer online.

[Anonymous No.4494418]

>>4494394
If fireworks are this simple, surely you can succinctly explain me how every type of them is composed in 2-3 sentences.

[Anonymous No.4494420]

>>4493672
I'm stayin in and I don't feel bad about it in the slightest
I'm already a few beers deep, probably gonna play some non /vr/ stuff, but might hop on some contra or battletoads, those are great drunk games.

[Anonymous No.4494426]

>>4494418
What? I never said they were "simple". I said obnoxious and loud. And that fireworks is not the only way to teach kids about physics and chemistry

[Anonymous No.4494428]

>>4494016
well that cant be healthy...
either get more sleep or eat better, something doesnt seem right

[Anonymous No.4494465]

I found my Genesis collection a couple days ago, playing this waiting for midnight.

[Anonymous No.4494490]

>>4494394
/vr/ finally convinced me to try it out. Breddy gud so far. Bosses kind of suck though, but that's nothing out of the ordinary for Zelda. Just got past the island dungeon.

For using fireworks to teach, you must not have kids. Lessons stick like glue if they are fun. I learned as much about performing chemistry from cooking and making fireworks as I did in chem classes in college.

Well it's been the cyberpunk year of 2018 for four hours now, doggy is calmer and hiding in the bathroom and I beat Sonic 3 &Knuckles. Got me all dem Chaos Emeralds for the first time ever. Came short for all Supers, though. Maybe next time

Nothing. Im at the bar with a bunch of pretty female friends who all want me. If I get bored however, I can emulate gb and gbc and I have a bluetooth controller that fits in my pocket on me.

[Anonymous No.4494769]

>>4493672
No apartment only houses. Had a few people over and we played some games but mostly not retro. Played a few old fighting and beat em ups.

[Anonymous No.4494928]

>>4493672
Dragonquest IV after my girlfriend inevitably falls asleep in an hour. We don't really get out much and spend most of our time stoned watching movies and playing video games, but we have stable jobs and a nice apartment full of nice things, so who gives a fuck?

Microsoft Excel

I love spreadsheets

[Anonymous No.4495305]

>>4495026
That would be cool, sort of, except I don't drink Monster.

Instead I think I have an ear infection, the first of 2018 but definitely not the last.

[Anonymous No.4495306]

>>4494630
Only got like 4 I think. I'm actually still in the mood for some more Fuckles the Chingo so I might just skip to the levels with the Super entrance rings. See if that maybe works. I know it doesn't really count if you don't do it all in the first go, but I'd like to just do it anyway.

[Anonymous No.4495370]

>>4495305
Sorry to hear that anon. I used to work with a Woman who got them all the time. Then she got some surgery and now she never gets them anymore. Might be worth asking your doctor about.

[Anonymous No.4495372]

>>4493672

I was at work.

But have an apartment with my fiance and so we might continue her playthrough of Mario RPG later.

thats about the lamest excuse for taking amphetamines ive ever heard. remember, making up shitty reasons to take more amphetamines is one of the main effects of amphetamines.

[Anonymous No.4496270]

>>4495370
Another anon here, I had ear infections all the time as a kid. Had to get tubes in my ears to help curb that from happening.
I don't get ear infections anymore, haven't since that surgery.
