Chelle has drawn me a pic of all twelve Knights in Monster Collection Chronicles:

Main team once planned for Monster Collection Chronicles

-----

Had an appointment each with Dr. Perret and Dr. Mattimoe. Hardly had anything to discuss with the former. With the latter, I was supposed to get a PPD, but Mom got carried away with discussing several other things with him, and we forgot to get it.

Mom then spent a few minutes shopping at Macy's, before going to Costco. Given what time it was, she thought I might be able to grab a slice of pizza there while she picked up groceries. As it turns out, the clerks at the counter only accept cash, which I didn't have. Well, at least I saved myself a few bucks there.

Wasn't until around 2 that we finally got home. Mom commented that she didn't think any store would be so crowded on a weekday, when most people are at work. She made grilled cheeses for me and herself when we got home.

She later went out to pick up Brian. When they got home, Brian offered to help me with Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs, but I told him that there were several more urgent things I needed him to take care of as long as he's still here.

First of those two was Chip-chan Kick. Somehow, he managed to save the .bin file onto my flash drive, though he did comment that my wallpaper was embarrassing. I still have yet to try it out on either Mednafen or Xe.

The other thing was the main computer's choppiness. So far, possibly among other things, he has tried cleaning the hard drive with the air hose in the garage, before going to bed. It's much faster now, but trying to play anything on any emulator still sucks.

At this point, I think I'll play most ROMs on my laptop. As a bonus, that also means I won't have to pause the game every now and then to let Dad on the main computer. That said, I might even delete most ROMs and emulators that I have on our PC, so as to free it up even more. As long as Brian is here, though, I suppose I might as well see if he'd be able to fix it up even more.

Yeah, even though Xe is only compatible with Windows and Linux, it pretty much seems like its programmer has stopped working on it entirely anyway, which would mean that it won't likely ever be able to play Nintendo 64 games. But, even if it gets completed, it's still doubtful that a translation patch for Getter Love!! will ever materialize. If it does, then I'm probably gonna have to find a way to burn a modded ROM copy onto a cartridge.
