I have read the book and it is actually really cool.
Not babies but children are often more open to unconventional ideas.

Time will become the currency if other resources are unlimited.
Time keeps moving forward, and you cannot go back to the past.

By the way, in 2012, scientists on the LHC were able to create the highest man-made temperature, at an astounding 5 trillion K – the temperature of the universe moments after the big bang.

A card with a well-written note would be the best. Take time thinking about the tiny things she did that meant a lot to you.
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
Top Gun is memorable in a frustrating way.
I enjoyed Blades of Steel too. But I like Ice Hockey better overall, mainly because they added weight/power to different player types. That might be the first sports game having such system.

Wonderful time with coop (and when I had friends to coop with).

- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
Kid Icarus is a little too difficult for me, but I think I should try again and see if I can get better.
I only played TMNT on SNES, perhaps I should try the NES one.
I never tried Paperboy, is it good?

There is a video on youtube explaining the effort put into programming Balloon Fight to improve the controls.

TIL, thanks.
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
This one is just called Pinball, it is a first-party Nintendo game.
I love NES pinball. I do not like pinball games with realistic physics (too fast and too difficult). This one feels more like a game instead of a real pinball machine. Also, this one has a bonus stage with Mario in it.
I also like how clear and bright the visuals are. Too many newer pinball games are cluttered and flashy.
Space Cadet and NES pinball are my favourite video pinball games of all time.

Give me a true sequel to the original PvZ but without p2w.
- Comment on Why don't we have one timezone covering the whole earth? 9 months ago:
We have GMT/UTC for that purpose.
But do you want to see your clock at 02:00 and say “time to go to work”?

- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
Yeah it is a bit simplistic, but I go back to it for a short run once in a while. Miss the simple pick up and play.
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
I did. Just not enough room for too many good NES games.
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
I love same-screen coop games. Too bad they aren’t popular any more after the 8-bit and 16-bit era.
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
Yeah. I want to highlight some games that are under-appreciated. If I add SMB/Zelda/Metroid etc then there would be less room for less known games.
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
Definitely Balloon Fight. The control scheme is perfect. Two player coop. Simple but fun, and with the right challenge.
I wish it had more variety in the level design.
What are your NES favourites?
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 9 months ago:
For some reason Battletoads wasn’t popular/known in my region. For fighting games, we were into Double Dragon and Kunio Kun (River City).

Thanks. I followed your suggestion and watched the video. It is indeed a great improvement. Too bad the youtuber made a poor thumbnail.

I am not going to watch the video. But in the thumbnail, I prefer the 1996 version.
