((I added an arcade page to the instruction manual. I wanted to make it very clear that things happening around Reboot’s arcade do not ever have to affect anyone who isn’t canonically a part of this arcade.

Also please note that so far I’m only allowing close friends of mine to be residents in this arcade. So if your character shows up in person to harass Reboot and co., I’m going to assume they’re visiting from some other arcade.

Thank you!))

While my own experience mainly consisted of squatting in random games, nowadays, I’d say that an open sandbox game like Minecraft, Terraria, or Starbound might be more suitable for housing entire kingdoms.

oh my goodness!! i do hope you do not have to deal with being unplugged!! that is horrible .. i know i went to minecraft when my game was uninstalled ..i am starting to get tired of it, but it is still a home!!!!!!!

Oh, well, um, there seem to be a lot of sprites that know how to create servers fer games like Minecraft! You’d have a whole world ta yerself there, plenty of food and resources too! That’s one option atleast!

Huh... That's sure an awful lot of votes for this Minecraft thing! I guess if so many people are vouching for it, well, it must be pretty safe.

..And you all really think it could handle a whole kingdom? Oh! Oh that's such great news. I'll look into this right away! YEAH!

YEAH! I'M PUMPED!

I'M GOING TO GOOGLE IT! ! ! ! !

Ah! Hello!

Maybe I am just overreacting, hahah! But maybe 'm not. You know, ol' Bowser, always worrying, always likes to be prepared. Hah! haha...

Wait. You wouldn't know, I suppose. You're... not from the arcade. A server? Wow! Neat! Never met one before! A pleasure, yeah!

It's a real pleasure!

Minecraft, eh? That's... one of them computer games, out on the internet. I'll admit, I'm kind of new to the whole world wide web scene! Makes me... kind of nervous, to be honest. I heard there's ALL KINDS of stuff out there!

NASTY things. V I R U S E S! Brr...

Farthest I've been myself is ol' Stanley's laptop...

But, ....times change! And.. and if you think this is a good option for us.. well. I'll owe ya! Real big!

Thanks for the advice, buddy!

If I may offer an opinion, sir—

Surely you are overreacting? I’m sure nothing will happen to your game. Sequels and their predecessors can share an arcade quite harmoniously, or, you know…some blithering after-school nonsense like that.

But in the event you do find yourself kicked to the curb you could always set up a home in Minecraft. Maps are spacious, you can build anything you like.

Really the only problem is the fact that everything is wretchedly symmetrical.

Mostly you just strand in the GCS as a homeless sprite. I think it does happen that some can just live with other game characters as long you follow the rules.

Gah... Yeah. I've seen the homeless sprites around the GCS. Of course I have. Poor guys... 

And I've heard about that! Going to live in other games all incognito... like Q*Bert! Last I heard he's got a pretty okay gig going in the ol' Fix-it Felix cabinet!

...But we're not talking just a few sprites here, I'm afraid. There's all of the toads in the Mushroom Kingdom, and all of the koopas n' goombas, etc, etc, in mine, and of course you've got the Yoshis, and the Kongs, and... oh, what about all the Bloopers and Cheep-cheeps underwater?? How would they manage to live in the GCS! FISH BOWLS?? Also, there's a lot of... wilder things, too, I mean, have you ever tried to move an unwilling Chain-Chomp out of its territory? It's not easy! It's not!

Oh... I'm so worried... I'm getting a shell-ache!

GAAAAAAH!

[bowserthebest]

So uh. Still plugged in! Still here! 

But I was wondering... just in case, you know, as a precaution...

What kind of options are out there for. Gulp... gameless sprites.

Was wondering if anyone one had advice on If there's anywhere that...several kingdoms worth of minor npcs could realistically set up home.

Hahah. I'm sure there's somewhere, right?? Games get unplugged all the time! 

[bowserthebest]

Gah ha...

S-sorry about my uh.. grm... outbursts yesterday, everyone!

I'm fine! Don't worry about ol' King Koopa! Gah hah haaahh...

Still plugged in today! Yeah! One.. one game at a time...

We'll be fine! Won't let this bring us down, no way!!

No! Hey! We’re here for ya, man! Ya can’t just give up! I mean, you were on top for so long, it’s hard ta see a bright side, but it’s there! Two weeks, two more weeks and kids will realize how much they miss your game, their old high scores!

SNIFF.

Thanks Vanellope, you're a.. a real stand-up lady.

I gotta be strong! For my kingdom! Gotta remember the old Bad-Anon motto, "One game at a time."

One game at a time...

Oh! Hey! Come on, Big Guy! It’s not that bad… you’re a player favorite! Sure they might use your game less, but I bet they still love playin’ yer game regardless!

Y-yeah I mean. We've got... uh. Well.

The good news is that the other game is so popular, it's so busy that there's a line, and sometimes kids from the back of that line come over to ours.

I mean, they usually leave when they see we're an older version, but...

GAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHh!! BOO HOO...

[bowserthebest]

cabin-turbo replied to your post: OKAY I LIED I’M NOT SURE OF IT. I’M NOT SURE OF...

O-ohhh…I’m sorry to hear, they just don’t know what they are missing!~

YEAH! Yeah! 

I mean, there's... well, technically the sequel has all the old tracks in it, plus the new ones...

And there's all the old characters in it too, plus two new ones...

New items, new features. A brighter screen.

B-but I'm sure our cabinet has its... unique charm!

...

BOO HOO HOOO HOO HOO HOO HOO....

[bowserthebest]

OKAY I LIED I'M NOT SURE OF IT.

I'M NOT SURE OF IT EVEN A LITTLE.

KIDS ONLY PLAY OUR CABINET WHEN THE OTHER ONE'S BUSY WE'RE NOT DOING GREAT AT ALL!!!

BOO HOO HOO HOOO HOOO HOOO HO HOO HOO HOO HOO HOO

[bowserthebest]

Hey! Uh...

We're still around! Sorry if I uh, worried anyone there! You know, since we.. we've got lots of fans out there, I know! We do...

I'm sure all of you in the old arcade noticed that Litwak imported a cabinet of--our. Our sequel. Oh boy...

But we're still here! Turns out the place can support two Mario Karts! I mean, for now, but... 

We've got staying power! I'm sure of it!!!

[bowserthebest]

Hah hahh..

Yeah. Hey, that's real.. real swell of you, Candy. You're a stand-up guy.

I think... I think I wanna tell 'em myself, though. You know, here. At home. While we have it.

No offense. No offense.

This just seems like something I gotta do myself, you know?

But, hey, I appreciate the offer a lot.

We'll... figure somethin' out.

Well, y’sthee, thesthe thingsth just, just happen to the bestht of usth, I don’t know what I’d do if it had been a, a Sthugar Rush Z or sthomething.

Look, I’m a nice king. I can help you out here. If you want to, hoohoo, treat the, the wife and kid to a nice breakfastht or sthomething, we have a lovely dining room in the casthtle, very handsthome and.. if you like, I can help break it to them.

[bowserthebest]

Gahhhh.

Everything's fine!! I just!

Think I need to lie down for a while..

[bowserthebest]

....oh no.

[bowserthebest]

A-ha! 

ALL RIGHT!

Bowser's gonna settle this here and now!

See, I'm a guy who likes getting things done and taken care of! No mysteries... no worries!

So, I'm up here on a platform of Thwomps AND Whomps, with the best view in the kingdom! (Real good job guys, by the way! Much more stable! Real impressive work!)

Now, we got some Scout Guys up here, with their telescopes, and to look through 'em, Mister I! (Nice guy, real reclusive though.)

Even got some Amps up here to improve lighting! 

If anyone'll be able to see what these new cabinets are, it'll be TEAM BOWSER!!
