i feel as if you could interpret this in rather different ways depending on what you know about the characters here

Life was so much simpler when all I worried about was my Animal Crossing Wild World town

The Sims Bustin Out: Meet Your SimValley Neighbors! + Multilanguage of a variety of characters

i miss the punny names like Italian Dusty Hogg just being "I drive the Motorbike"

Weird how Giuseppis Italian name changed it to "Mezzo"

Bonus: Meet your neighbors! Miniopolis Edition (German)

Fun fact: Daddy Bigbucks' German name could literally be translated as „B. Igmouth”. Luthors German name is just stuck onto it making it „Lutz B. Igmouth”. It's similar to Eddie Renalins German name which is literally just A. Drenalin....wow

Today, The Urbz turns 20 years old!

Giuseppi Mezzoalto brought his poppa's famous strawberry tiramisù to the party.

Incidentally, @ritabuuk and I have a recipe for the strawberry tiramisù over at our Giuseppi fansite, if you want to try making it yourself :D

there's something so Smile-inducing about seeing people whose simblrs I've on and off come across and liked and that made me smile in the notes of my ts2 fanart it's like omg... you are visiting my b(l)og... I once extirpated myself from its still nasty waters and dragged algea and hoof marks all over your beautiful home and now you pay me a visit. you shouldn't have. but you are welcomed and loved as a guest. Smiles so sweetly

Some Urbs Sims for the 20th anniversary

I don't have anything special for the urbs 20th anniversary, but I have these little guys lying around so I might as well show them off!

They are for my Strangetown Subhood and will be included in it when it's done. I will also be uploading an empty version and all the sims as bodyshop files, but I can't say when that will be. So I guess this is also kind of an update post.

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Sims by playing some more of the Urbz for GBA on twitch!

[thesimquarter]

You can post one thing or multiple things, up to you. And, preferably, most entries are posted on November 9th, 2024, which is the date that all console versions of the Urbz alongside the GBA version were released in North America, two decades prior!

If participating, please tag your post as #urbz handheld 20th anniversary. You can also tag me or send the post to me if this doesn’t work for you. I do plan on reblogging entries!

Further specification under the cut.

You can create fan-art or fan-fiction, but if you’re not skilled nor confident at either of those, you’re not limited to just them.

If you’re mostly a Sims player like me, you can share recreations of the locations and characters in whatever game you prefer! You can post analysis on parts of the game, post your head canons on the characters/world, or talk about any other ideas you've had.

You can even do something as simple as telling us all about what you liked with the game and your experiences with it or even making a ranking of the characters based off of whatever criteria you want. You could even just post some screenshots you took while playing! Do whatever works for you!

The goal of this event is to get people talking and thinking about The Urbz: Sims in the City during/around its anniversary. I want people to do whatever the hell they want, but I also want to make sure to provide some ideas as a starting point for people who may want to particpate.

Also! Since all versions of the The Urbz: Sims in the City weren’t published in all territories for a few months, you can participate until March 11th, 2025, which is 20 years after The Urbz for DS released in Europe. So, if you want to participate but don't have the time, didn't see this post, or whatever you're doing is taking longer than expected, don't sweat!

so from what I can gather tomodachi life is like the sims basically

Sooo. German Lily Gates calls the main character an actual Bitch.

Google Translate to get my point across.

Literally translated:

„How terribly rude, you pathetic, conniving bitch.”

The English one for comparison

Tristan Legend and Giuseppi Mezzoalto from the Sims handheld series camping out in the Strangetown desert. The number of incredible tales that Tristan can share surely increases with the amount of beers had.

Commission for @just-ornstein - thank you for giving me an opportunity to do something with this concept :D

Ever since we discussed the idea of Giuseppi having kind of a crush on Tristan, I've been wanting to write a small fic about it, and working on this commission gave me the kick in the pants I needed. The bonus fic is under the cut. 388 words. It probably takes place a couple hours before the moment in the artwork.

Passenger seat

The desert eats people, they say, and they're right. It's not just the giant scorpions - it's the wind that rips out the dew from within your throat, it's the sky that's too tall and wide and blue and heavy; best to keep your mouth shut and your head down. The desert goes on, infinite wherever it spreads; a limitless space bisected by one straight road, a matter of basic geometry - that's where you drive fast and steady, alone for days in all directions, unless someone is filming some cheesy car commercial. The desert is the space of nothingness - but if you go there, you're searching for something, and you'll sure find it.

Tristan had been at the wheel for a few hours now. It had been baking hot all morning and afternoon; now the sun was finally going down, and in a couple hours it'd be the cold and dry night of the desert. Giuseppi stretched in the van's passenger seat. Not even a lone funky saguaro in the window to distract him from his thoughts. He turned to look at Tristan instead: in the late afternoon light, the stray frizz of his hair against the sun drew a golden halo. He was always like this, carrying that perfect glow, that dazzling charm, that winning smile. Giuseppi squinted his eyes to shield himself from that stupid brightness. What else could he do? Of course it hurt to see; someone like Giuseppi belonged firmly to the night, where dressed in black he concealed the wrinkles on his too-young face, the roughness that would never become smooth again. Tristan, instead, was all gold and shine, in spite of everything - what envy; and what delight. When he considered himself burnt enough, Giuseppi turned away to look at more rocks and sand. Strangetown was how many miles away now? There's nothing behind, and there's nothing ahead. The van drives on. In that moment, that's where the whole world began and ended.

Tristan slowed down, ready for a break. Giuseppi had promised to himself that he wouldn't slip back to his old ways, but maybe he had in him one last crime, if he would find the courage - to steal some sunlight from his lips. Would it be so bad?

Dream Jelly just uploaded a video where she discusses all of the Sims games made for handheld devices. Apparently, she's saving the MySims series for a future video.

One of my favourite games for my 3DS, The Sims 2 DS. I'm not usually a big fan of the sims games, since I personally find life sim games kind of boring, but Sims 2 for the DS is an actual (sort of) story game where you manage a hotel and get the closest feeling to taking LSD. It's really fun, so I'd recommend playing it if you have a DS.
