So basically, to summarize:

Music

SNES>GBA

Translation

SNES more liberal and catchy, GBA more literal and wordy

Graphics

SNES>GBA. GBA has smaller screen, washed-out colors and slowdown in battles

Stability

GBA>SNES. SNES has a lot of small glitches, nothing game-breaking though except in the first print version which you won't be playing.

Content

GBA>SNES, GBA has extra dungeons and summons but one scene is removed for stupid censorship reasons.

The new content is only something a veteran player would appreciate though, seeing as it's post-game content.

The GBA version is good for your second playthrough, but the first time you want to experience the main story the best possible way, and that sure isn't the GBA version with its much smaller screen, censorship, softened translation and bad music.

FFVI's strongest point is the soundtrack, and it's completely butchered in the GBA version.

SNES version is the only way to go if you have your priorities straight.

Your Aspie score: 31 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 173 of 200
You are very likely neurotypical

According to the results I am like perfect neurotypical superman, but that is a load of BS and shows how stupid tests like this are. I spend 10+ hours a day in front of a screen, that's not typical at all even if I'm socially competent.

Some of the aspie questions definitely would have applied to me 15 years ago though. I was a lot more introverted as a kid.

I suppose you could nom cascade, or nom the four songs individually.

Nominating them individually seems redundant. They work best together, and they got some upgrades for the Cascade mix too.

This nomination system is kind of dumb by the way. Am I supposed to come back here every day and make up a new list, spreading my favourites across several days to give them all +5? It would be better if people just list a bunch of their favourites in no particular order.

I'll follow the system for now though, man it's stupid to look for songs that I "like a lot, but not THAT much" to give low scores.

We don't need a hyperdrive to reach the nearest systems. We could probably do it within a 100 years if we were able to maintain a 1960's Space Race level of focus on it the whole time.

I don't think you're fully aware of the distances involved here.

With today's space engines it would take ~80 000 years to reach the nearest star, Proxima centauri.

Pretty much this, except I think your timelines are a bit off. I'd be surprised if weren't venturing outside of our solar system in 1000 years.

We won't be going outside the solar system until we invent the hyperdrive.

And then nobody will volunteer to do it because everyone knows the hyperdrive always malfunctions at the worst possible moment.

I don't see it happening within 1000 years.

Yeah this is a very stupid question for several reasons.

1: The sun is never going to explode

2: It will be too hot on Earth for life to exist in just a few hundred million years, while the Sun won't die until 5 billion years from now.

3: We already have the technology to escape Earth if something horrible should happen. In 1000 years it won't even be an issue. In 10000 years we are probably on our way to other star systems. And in a million years, not to mention a hundred million... well look at how far we've come in the last 100 years, by that time we can probably create a new universe to live in if we haven't wiped ourselves out.

I always try to act in character if I'm controlling a character with a personality, as in most JRPGs. Like, having Cloud declare his undying love for Barret would make the game feel completely "off" for me, funny though it may be.

Frankly, choices in story-driven games annoy me. I play games to have a story told to me, not to "create my own" based on a bunch of binary selections within a horribly restricted framework. If I want to make my own story I boot up 3D Studio Max.

Yeah this game is an abomination and showed me just how much effort Bioware puts in their lackluster games these days.

Apparently Richard Jacques was going to make the soundtrack but jumped ship late in development or something? It's pretty hilarious that they use crappy fan MIDI songs in the game though.

Also the people who made the cutscenes apparently had never used flash before, resulting in some truly spectacular QUALITY animation.

Rose mentioned that in the Furthest Ring, the way time and space shifts makes it so even if you take the "same" path it can take you a different amount of time (or...space) to get there.

If that were true the meteor and its crew wouldn't even stay together. It's too late now of course, but it everyone followed Dirk closely they should end up in the same place.

But it seems too convenient that Dirk is apparently going to find his way back to Derse either way. I hope there's more to it than that. If there isn't then the Furthest Ring isn't what it's cracked up to be.

Ok as someone who actually taught himself Japanese for free I have some very good tips for you. I will assume that you are a total noob, if not then skip steps as appropriate.

1: Go here: http://www.learn-japanese.info/

This is the ultimate noob resource for just learning the most basic grammar and expressions in a logical and easy way. It's useless after like a week though when you get the basics down.

2: Next, go here: http://www.guidetojapanese.org/learn/

This is considered by many to be the best free online guide to Japanese, but it has a steeper learning curve than the previous one.

3: You'll want to learn Hiragana at this point, and Katakana soon after. Go here: http://www.realkana.com/ and you'll learn them crazy fast.

4: The top non-free Japanese guide is the Genki book series. I recommend using these in addition to the online guides, but that doesn't mean you have to actually pay for them...

5: Once you get a grip on the kana, you have to start learning Kanji. And there is one resource for this that is far and away the best: http://kanjidamage.com/

6: To practice Kanji you have to download a program called Anki. Look it up and you'll realize why this is a must.

And this is how you learn Japanese smoothly with little to no tiresome memorization or repetition.

Hussie always announces when he starts working on big flashes though. Besides, this doesn't seem like a good place to put an EoA flash.

Maybe a smaller flash first, then some more pages and then the EoA? Or maybe he's just taking some time off and we'll get a big, regular update today?

In any case I think UU will have to go to sleep before it's flash time.
