Disc Roulette
Everyone points out how poorly Gamercat treats his games, and I’m afraid he gets that from me. I’m not quite as bad as him, but I do swap discs all the time and it drives my friends nuts, particularly when it’s time to clean up and we have to backtrack through the release order to find the proper discs.
You know that sanity is not as it was meant to be
And now that misery has taken a new stand
I honestly would be happy to help him out, I love fixing disc boxes for some reason.
I do this, but with 3ds and ds games
Then i can never find any of the ones i am looking for. :(
I also do it to my ds games I once bought Mario kart 8 and I put in in donkey Kong return and I never found it . ( and the case too )
I wonder what quote would you set on an answering machine?
Our fear is gone, we sail to the dawn.
Wait. That’s not common usage?
Took me 2 years to understand it. I found Patapon 2 PSP disk in God of War box.
Hey what does it mean if you cough up your own kidney?
Means your dying
Wait. Humans die?
Yep, some people die later in life. Unless you make stupid decisions- then you may or may not die a lot sooner then that.
Or, they could’ve just been handed a dud in the genetics lottery. Not all early deaths are the result of poor decision-making (though most of them are).
What if you cough up someone else’s kidney?
Then you both die
Then whoever is in charge of cooking the chicken roast didn’t do a good job.
LOL
Wait, what is a kidney?
It’s a piece of bread
That drives me batshit when people do that.
If only the release order strategy worked for me… I’ve just got to check all of them.
WHERE IS MY FRIEND GLITCH
Great comic tho
Normally I side with Gamercat but this is the episode where Pixel is my spirit animal.
My soul and my spirit will go on
For all of eternity
The panel 4 explanation makes no sense. TR being in the system is no reason not to put RDR2 in its own case.
…Wait. Let me guess: Opening both cases would be extra work. He’s that lazy.
Congrats, you’ve figured out the joke.
[insert Final Fantasy victory music here]
Eh, close enough, its looking for the case that nobody does, besides look at all his games.
I’ve done that before, but only with like two or three games
With a 3ds or a Nintendo Switch, the cartridges wouldn’t be damaged from leaving them on the floor
With two to five cats walking around, along with a human? They won’t be undamaged for long.
Who’s the fifth one?
Nano, but she got hit by a truck.
big oof
Carefully go through and check every case. Cases with correct game goes in pile ONE. Separate wrong games and cases and place disks in pile 2 and empty cases in pile 3. Match disk from 2 to case in 3 and place in 1. At end of sort… have Three empty cases and Two games that don’t match them, but you also never bought… one of which seems to be humming on it’s own…
The joy of being organised. Your sanity deteriorates through games rather than their disks/cartridges.
I know a way to solve this problem by not even making it a problem.
It’s called just playing PC and not having to deal with boxes and discs because all you have to do is flip through your Steam library!
Amen! Or buy it digitally on console!
ya just buy it digitally on console
Unless it’s a Wii U
I’d like to imagine that Sweet doesn’t even keep his cases.
I learned a long time ago to never leave a game out of its case. I can’t play most of my PS1 games because of the scratches and smudge left over from sitting on a shelf data-side-up for months on end. I didn’t take care of my games at all as a kid. As for case cycling it’s just not a very fun time to look through your entire collection because nothing is in the right case so I always make sure I put them back and alphabetize my collection. Organization leads to faster gaming.
Better than what my Mum used to do when she found a disk in the drive. She just took the disk out and put it on the desk. She still denies that her behaviour is why several discs got scratched to the point they wouldn’t work.
These days, I prefer digital distribution because I don’t have to mess about with swapping discs.
…Pixel is me and GamerCat is my friend in this strip
Tip: Use one of those cases that have lots of flaps for discs. Then you won’t have to worry about getting them switched around!
Thankyouthankyouthankyou
I myself am by no means a stickler for order but putting discs in the wrong cases seems like … trolling yourself, why would you do that? It’s really not hard to put it in the right one … and you won’t have to search for it for hours.
-_-
What planet did you say you came from?
Yeah…. I do that a bit myself… I don’t always know where the cases are for games that have been in the system for a while, so sometimes I’ll just put the game in the case of whatever game I switch it out with.
I’ve been trying to get better about that.
like almost every dose it for example I do it a lot and just play any game I have
That process is entirely too complex. Easy method.
1. Grab box.
2. Take disc out of box.
3. Grab correct box for the disc in hand.
4. Remove disc from that box.
5. Put correct disc in box.
6. Put box in completed pile.
7. Go back to step 3.
You just need to handle each box and disc only 1 time.
Thank you for that. Now I know how to organize my stuff.
Ya , what if you lost a box and can’t find a different disc
gotta admit: i love the Disc Roulette xD i really enjoy sorting games, movies, books etc.
Wonder what the annoying fairy would say about this.
The Annoying Fairy would encourage you to be lazier upon seeing this.
Sounds about right
I’ve done this with a few of my older Call Of Duty games.
Mostly because I have two copies of COD: World at War for some reason.
Little side note: Who still likes World at War?
hahaha me to
When Deltarune?
Ok sorry… .-.
That’s totally ME every day
Every day
my life goes by
at the speed of light
then how are you not dead
[insert reason for not being dead here]
I am kind of messy but the worst it gets is me forgetting to put a game back on the shelf for a week
EARTHBOUND PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice name
This will probably be the one and only time I’ll agree with you.
Truly a unique and understandable name
A name that is both respectable and trustworthy
Wait, isn’t the roulette part of the fun of gaming?
Normaly but in disc roulette it’s tedious even if you win
True. It’s just disc, case, disk, case, etc.
I tend to play whatever is in the case anyway
My gaming life 😿
Gamercat’s face in Panel 5 is precious, I thought only Glitch could pull that off
That one time you’re stupid enough to try and get someone to watch something with subtitles
I plead guilty on this. And I do it with music discs and DVDs as well…
I love sorting through stuff like that, it’s calming and it gives a sense of accomplishment when you’re done!
Reach for the world as the sky begins to fall
Rising through the darkened ashes praying that I’ll see you all
It is always great to stumble across an interesting topic of yours like this.
lol this reminds me when I was younger a friend of mine did this once. I’m so glad this didn’t end up happening though😂
