Ha no PE as expected.
I got caught in the train delays at the circle line. Stuck there for an hour. I fucking hate SMRT.
Ha no PE as expected.
didn't know this thread existed - visited for a week back in may for my 30th birthday and it was an amazing trip. beautifully green and clean country, it had alot more to offer than i expected. got cocky and thought the humidity would be no big deal (australian) but it kicked my ass. i cannot fathom how people walk around in suits...
for future tourists i stayed at the parkroyal on pickering. expensive but it was an incredible stay.
Well, people don't really walk around in suits. Not for long periods of time outdoors anyway.
Glad you enjoyed your stay!
Hello people.
I am going to be in Singapore in December for a few days on the way to Borneo. Is 3 days a good amount of time to get a feel of the place and see/do some of the main things?
Also, what's the weather like in December?
3 days is enough. Anything in particular that you'd like to see?
Weather is the same all year round - reach a high of 33degrees Celsius on a normal day
Better bring an umbrella.
From the limited research I've done
- Gardens of the Bay
- Night zoo
- Merlion Park
But mostly I just want to see the different districts and get a sense of the city. Definitely want to try as much food as possible!
Anything in particular people would recommend as far as things to see/do?

If someone is in a suit, it generally means it is their first time here on business. Most dont make the same mistake if they return.i didn't see many as say, japan, but there were still enough!
SingaporeGAF I need your help. Me and my partner have been debating about moving to Singapore back and forth for a considerable time now (she's Singaporean). She is however concerned about the work-life balance Singapore may throw at us.
We both work as Software Dev's, she thinks we'll be working til 10pm regularly. Currently in the UK we finish at the time in our contract (5pm) give or take 15mins and rarely do overtime. If I move will I be damning myself to hours well in excess of my contract as a part of the work culture?
Thinking of getting the SNES Mini Classic. What's the situation like here? Any official release? Or all parallel imports? Would we need a stepdown transformer for the power supply if it's a US parallel import?
Edit: Apparently it's USB powered so that's not an issue. Now to think about where to find one.

hmm anyone here in SingaporeGAF bought HiFi speakers at Adelphi?
How was your experience?
Apparently Qisahn did preorders for SNES at $142 which is pretty decent. Preorders are closed though.
Looks like you might be able to get it from Lazada for about 149? I dunno. I'm buying a Euro one from a friend. Need that superior design.
I wonder what's the demand for the SNES Classic like here. I saw TOG with a pile of NES Classic just a few months ago, and I wonder if it'll be the same for the SNES.

I've done this a couple of times. It's generally pleasant enough but like with all niche hobbies, you need to do your own research and know what you are looking for.
My advice:
Bring your own source materials.
Don't fall for the speaker cables/interconnects/power supply snake oil.
Be thick skinned
Always bargain
Xtremeplace forums is the local audiophile hangout though I have no idea how active it is these days.

Somehow or another Funz Square at Far East Plaza still had leftover stock of the SNES classic. Instant impulse buy. I definitely didn't expect to get one without making a preorder.
How much is it?
Got a mail from Hachi Tech- they are selling it for $179. It took me awhile, but I finally convinced myself that I do not need one
I am thinking this as well.
I really want one. But I am in the midst of decluttering and selling a lot of my old stuff (sold a lot of my old consoles and games in the past year) and buying this will just go against all of that.
Yup same. Been selling alot of my stuff as I'm moving out soon. But I Bought a PSVR on impulse 3 weeks back, and regretted it on the day itself. Was taught a very expensive lesson in buying stuff that I do not really need!
The SNES classic would be a good device to introduce my spouse (mines not interested) or your kid to retro gaming- but if it was purely for my use, I don't think I'd enjoy the games as much as I imagine I would.
Lol sounds like we are in the same boat. I moved out at the start of this year which prompted the decluttering. Sold a lot of stuff but kept the PS2 and 360 which were my main consoles of their respective generations. Thinking of getting rid of those too.
I bought a Rift two months ago that has been gathering dust too LOL. I don't regret it but the content is so thin at the moment.
I understand that Gamemartz has just received their stocks of the Super Famicom Classic (my preferred model). Just FYI - unless youve already caved in and bought the SNES classic
