Yeah. Bought it on Craigslist for Pokemon Y several hours before deciding I hated Pokemon Y. Thought about getting Smash (before I had a Wii U) but thought better of it once the reports started coming out of people wrecking their circle pads with it. Incidentally my room mate used it more than I did for over a year,… Read more

over the last decade I’ve really stopped pirating much of anything. For a time recently I had money to buy the things I wanted, and that gave me a chance to feel good and morally holier than thou about paying people for their works. Running out of money, I just stopped getting so many things rather than steal them,… Read more

My Smash 4 Wii U controller name is B3NIS (my name starts with a B) and I'm always worried some humorless ass will submit some kind of report on me. Read more

Whatever man it looks fun. The trailer sucks but the game looks fine. If it wasn’t called Metroid we would be hauling a great new original idea from Nintendo but instead people are getting butt hurt. It’s a Prime game so we know the controls will be solid. The cartoony look is neat and if the game starred Samus people… Read more

God, they just keep adding stuff. Nobody has done follow-up DLC better this generation than Nintendo. I occasionally think, when I am very low on money, that I might sell my Mario Maker because I don’t play it much lately, but the thought always comes back to me that they may add something new. All they have to do now… Read more

Sigh. I own the old 3DS. I’d upgrade but Jesus, the new ones are still so expensive.

So good to hear. I’d like to play this game sooner or later, and in fact, it’s installed on my PC as my room mate picked it up almost immediately (he’s a tremendous fan of Harvest Moon). He pointed out to me yesterday that there was a character in it who, when he talked to him at one point, said locals had been… Read more

Ahem. If you REALLY wanna catch ‘em all, it's Down A, which scored me a level 3 Jigglypuff today after two unaided attempts failed. Thanks, Homepages website from 1998! Now I'll be a Pokémaster for sure! Read more

Interesting thing, this. Do you guys remember how PlayStation Home’s movie theater would, by its original intent, let you watch movies with friends and socialize about it over mics? And I think one could have cooked up a similar thing to that never-to-flower idea on Xbox 360 by playing Netflix while in party chat. But… Read more

When I was in my second year of gifted ed and the next batch of kids came in behind us (we 4th graders, they 3rd) Pokemon came out and one of the new kids had a copy of Blue. I watched in awe as he worked his way through the start of the game, and when he got to Brock, his Bulbasaur’s vine whip made short work of the… Read more

The comic shop where I have a file is super bad about pushing shit into your file that you didn’t ask for, then getting all “oh…” if you say no to it. They got an “exclusive cover” with their name on it for DKRIII and stuck it in everyone’s files, and since I didn’t want to harsh anybody’s buzz I just bought it. I… Read more

Well, right, I mean…I guess I haven’t thought about it in some time but Jesus, the Xbox 360(‘s only worthy SKU) had a 20GB HDD 10 years and some months ago at launch. It truly is stunning beyond compare that Nintendo ever let this 8GB unit out into the wild. Read more

I can't believe that thing is still on the market. I was certain it had been discontinued in the US. Read more

I’m positive my brother and I did this. Although only for like, an afternoon. And not in color, nor as much detail. Good for these cats.

All right, Hernandez, I’ve got a bone to pick: “Don’t Say You Love Me” isn’t just garbage, but it’s CATCHY garbage. Read more

Ah. So you’re not a comic fan who doesn't think Archie meets his standards, you're just trolling people to pass the time. I see. Read more

It’s not a great one. But he’s right, the Mark Waid / Fiona Staples (Staples only did the first 3 issues) run on Archie is great. Never in my life thought I’d be reading Archie. It’s probably not for everybody but it’s not something one has to apologize for anymore; it literally has a bunch of merits to stand on now.… Read more

Oh hey, zap rowsdower. Of Laser Time Podcast Forums fame? Anyway you’re right. The Mark Waid run is a real charmer. Read more

I can only speak for myself, but going through public education I had nearly no male teachers. Now I work in public education and I'm one of only…6 male educators? Not that there's anything wrong with that, just saying that when I got to college I enjoyed the novelty of having so many male teachers. It was just a… Read more

I'd rather them keep delaying it like this. The video trailer they released in the fall had me very, very worried. I love Mega Man. I love the work of Inafune. I don't want this game to be a letdown. So let them push it back as much as they need to in order to get it right. The only thing that could make that second… Read more
