And ack, I'm gonna have to save up before I can get that...But the video quality is so good...</3

Are you talking about Dazzle here? Well for anyone interested in the Dazzle device, I'll summarize it:
Dazzle is very simple to use. All you do is hook up the Wii's cables into the device, and then hook the device into your computers USB port. You have to then open up the software that Dazzle comes with (a CD) on your computer, and from there you have a number of options to choose from. You can save it on a CD, or on your computer's hard drive, as well as having the ability to choose your videos quality and how many minutes you need. If you input more minutes then you use, Dazzle will just automatically cut out the unused minutes. So if you're not sure how much time you need, you can put as many minutes as you'd like without a worry.
Anyway, once you've set all of the options to your liking, you simply turn on the Wii. Your computer, more or less, is simply just a monitor for the Wii. You can enlarge the screen so it's bigger as well. From here, whenever you're ready, all you do is hit the record button, and as soon as you're finished, you just hit stop and viola! The video will be saved in the designated folder you chose earlier.
If you'd like to upload the video on youtube, a conversion is unnecessary. You can simply just upload your newly saved video, and youtube will upload without a problem. If your picked the highest quality possible for your video, youtube will also automatically include the HQ option. Therefore, using Dazzle for gameplay videos is excellent because of its simplicity; hassle free.

The downside to Dazzle is that, because the Wii is hooked to your computer, recording videos for the sake of a youtube audience is quite annoying. Each time you want to record a video, you'll have to unhook the Wii from your TV, hook it into Dazzle, record the video, unhook it from Dazzle, and hook it back to your TV.
With games like EAM and ToT, it's a bit easier because you can save your game in multiple file slots, unlike RFF where you only get one diary per game and cannot save to other diaries (hence why I lack so many RFF videos; too lazy to go through this procedure each time.) Thus, in ToT/EAM, if you know you have an event coming up (like a wedding) you can save that piece of data to another file slot, and upload it whenever you have time.
There is a solution to this though. You can get splitter cables, or something of the sort, that I believe allows the Wii to be hooked in the computer and TV at the same time. I am NOT 100% sure about this, nor do I know how it works at all. It's just some things I've read on yahooanswers.

Dazzle DVD Recorder can be purchased at a local Best Buy for $50.
If you want to purchase Dazzle and want to know what the heck splitter cables are, or if the Wii can even be hooked to a computer and TV at the same time, you should probably ask Geek Squad. If such a thing exists, I'm sure Best Buy would carry it. Or any other electronic store for that matter.

If anyone has any questions regarding Dazzle, or if you'd like to see screenshots of how it looks on a computer, feel free to ask.
but complaints about my lack of RFF vids will earn you nothing :D

I really don't think my computer would like all of that.... I really wanted to load up all of Calvin's events. Oh well.


As for what I'm looking forward too, other than the obvious new clothes, Calvin being marriagable, new plot, Calvin babies, I'm very happy to see that the rival set has been expanded and that random events are back. The new marriage candidates look interesting, and the new festivals fun.


And, I get to ride a goat.

Finally got to see Luna's second daughter. Even if I DID like the pinkie dudes (which I no way would lol even though everyone else obviously does), I'd love the daughters a lot more. WHICH I DO.

Although I hope that they have things remotely close to Popuri-outfittery. XD

Aw, I feel overshadowed seeing as everyone playes as a girl. Nothing for guys. XD

Whaaaaaaaat
Cher put up all the guys clothes ages ago and only now are we able to see decent pictures of the female clothes.

Even more overshadowing for guys. Cause I haven't seen anyone mention it. XD

Even hats and stuff?

Yeah, everything.

She even has all the kids stuff.

Yeah, the AP page is huge. Which is kinda weird since ushi usually focuses more on the handheld games and there's still not a SI page even though it's supposed to come out first... not that I'm complaining about AP info by any means.

yeah, I think Cher liked AM more than SSaF. also, she did IoH pages and SSaF is nearly IoH. she didn't get a chance to do the ToT pages, so went ahead to AM. (when you read this, HI CHER, don't you like it when I put words into your... fingers... as we psycho-analyze Natsume, so do we you. haha )

Eh, really? Gamersara said AM was the best once and Cher said something like "I think that title/honor belongs to SSAF." So I guess I was kinda under the impression it was the other way around.

Besides, I don't get why she wouldn't do a SI page, what with the sunstone plot being completely absent in IoH, and the heart events being different, and all that... I mean, I could see it not being worked on yet (it's not even out in English for months to come) but you don't think she'll do one at all?

oh yeah, I do remember that now. you're right. but I guess it's further down her list of things to do since she didn't have ToT (and may never have ) pages up.

SSaF is way different and needs its own pages (just like ToT), but I guess it's a lower priority. and when Cher set out to do the AM pages, she probably didn't know the release dates for AM and SI.

The woman also has a life to have, so I'm sure she ran both with a game she enjoyed as well as the one that would likely be needed most in our little community.

I know I've used most of her guides to the letter, and I might not have love for HM like I do without everything here, but if I had to choose between getting SI or AP, even if only by considering the previous installments, there isn't even a contest, AP wins hands down.

I wonder if we'll be seeing an WB page since she made it obvious she didn't enjoy it nearly as much as she did SSaF.



BUT BACK TO TOPIC>

Chaos_44, I find the pink haired boys as awkward as you do, so you are not alone in that.

Speaking of which, Renee's brunette children look identical to the infamous default brunette child from the opening. You know, the one that's apperently Candace's child. Even more to lean toward the idea that it was only added for show, but I still think it would be cool if you could have children that resemble yourself.

Cher is pretty wicked! XD

Thank you. I thought everyone was so imersed with the fact that they could have pink-haired sons... that'd be PRETTY SCARY in real life. But not pink-haired girls, not at all... XD

Ooh, so many bandanas to choose from. And I'll probably just give my little Popuri daughter that flower hairpin.
