If I'm talking to an English speaker from outside of the US, is there any confusion if I say "soccer"?

For example, when I was in college a friend asked for a "torch". I was confused for quite some time, because I didn't know it was another word for "flashlight". Does the same thing happen with the word "soccer"? Should I clarify by saying, "...or football"?

Thank you!

Dangan GB2 is a new bullet hell game for Game Boy Color. The soundtrack was made in Carillon Editor. There's an extended playlist here.

The more rare, obscure, or just a guilty pleasure, the better. Maybe you grew up with it, maybe it's just the nostalgia talking, any reason is fine.

I'm looking for a new game to play, but I'm running out of games to collect!

My favorite is games for original DMG, but you're welcome to include Color it'll advance games too!

At least until I opened it up.

The two numbers at the bottom right of the label were there but they almost looked like they were printed on instead of indented like they were supposed to, which was odd. The lettering on the plastic was SO CLOSE to the original, but the font was just slightly off...

At this point I was still questioning it, because the label had the right amount of wear, and because WHY WOULD SOMEONE COUNTERFEIT BARBIE?? XD But then opening it up confirmed to me that it 100% was counterfeit, I'm guessing a pretty old one.

I made a video demonstrating some of the signs here.

It's just index cards cut up and written on with a Sharpie. But it really makes things easier to find. :)

This is a Game Boy song I wrote for a chiptune competition. I don’t think I quite met the goal of a having a song with a “dramatic break” in it. But it was fun to make, and I really like how it turned out. :)

Has anyone else used Carillon Editor? It’s the only tracker software I’d used so far, but I’d also like to try the PICO-8 tracker some time.

I'd never even seen this game before! Zelda 2 is my very favorite Zelda game to re-play, and I saw this mentioned in a list of games similar to it.

The game bounces back and forth between a Zelda style top down action exploration game and an auto scrolling shoot 'em up. Both are great and a lot of fun. The music is good, the graphics are great, the game is hard but fair (so far), the main character is flippin awesome, a cyborg who transforms into a spaceship. There's tons of weapons and rooms to explore.

The biggest drawback is the password system is atrocious, but hey, we have save states nowadays.

Did anyone here play this a lot growing up? Can you beat it?
