I downloaded it too, thanks!
PS: OCG, the stress in "sayonara" is on the "yo" and not on the "na". It's just that I've been watching your videos for a while and it bothers me a little every time you say it.

Anyway, I would also advise against using it in your videos as it makes it sound like you're not going to be back for a while. It does mean "goodbye" literally but the Japanese tend to use it only in cases where there is some finality to it (or at least temporarily) - you would not use it in the sense of "goodbye and see you soon" but rather in the sense of "goodbye and farewell".

Copy Center told me they are 300dpi and I asked for 300dpi myself.

You probably know I don't have best accent around here on any language

I stress many words incorrect in general and that is something I should be changing.
Wait so all the time when I was in Japan when I used word sayonara I was using it in wrong purpose? But I checked this old question before visiting Japan for first time.

Person that majored in japanese literature answered it could mean I can see person tomorrow so I just got used to use word "sayonara"
I know there are other ways like saying "see you" - Soredewa mata, but always liked "sayonara" best. Are you sure I really used it in wrong purpose and that it is considered incorrect?

I could do to improve my grammar as well, even though I'm learning french. but i digress, does Japanese kanji use accents like french does? cuase it already looks intense enough from what my brother showed.

There are many Japanese dialects but there is feature of Japanese language called Japanese pitch accent which distinguishes words in most Japanese dialects.
I don't know French at all so I cannot compare it to Japanese.

Well, it's not incorrect. You can say "farewell" to everyone too, and of course literally it would just mean that you wish them well, but it's extremely formal and since there are so many expressions that are more commonly used, "farewell" now just sounds like you won't be seeing someone for a while. I haven't majored in Japanese literature, but from what I've learned, "sayonara" is almost exactly the same - you can say it to anyone but it's very formal and people just use different expressions for simply saying "see you".
Wikitionary says the same thing. Most Japanese courses also note that "sayonara" sounds final, like these: (
1 |
2).
That person is literally the first I see on the whole internet who explicitly said that "sayonara" does not imply some kind of finality.
For saying "see you" (informal, don't use it in formal situations), I suggest "ja mata ne" (well, again, okay?) "mata ne" (again, okay?), "ja mata" (shortened) or "ja ne" (shortened a lot, I personally use this one because I'm lazy - but it's also probably the least formal form

)

After finishing current Let's Play, I'll change it to ja mata ne.

Oh! That box brings back memories. I have Rayman Collector in
a similar box (same collection, probably), and in French.
BTW: Thanks for changing it, OCG

I got also a box from the same reseller but instead of Rayman's World or Rayman Collector, Rayman Forever is included:

About that, while scanning the Rayman stickers I found (see Rare Rayman Pictures) I also found
my old Rayman 3 magnets. One of the hands is missing though. That's what you get for letting little kids play with them.

I don't think I'm the only one who has them, but I still haven't seen them much. Does anyone here have these magnets?

Yes, I think it was one of the prizes from a winter art contest on RaymanZone.

Would you attempt to run them in DOSBox, or simply just have them to own?
