Every time I see the Goatie coin I imagine Montel Williams on my TV at 2 a.m. hawking a set of collector's edition 50 State quarters with Fahey and Crecente painted on them.

Nintendo came up with some patent technology thingie that'll certainly make it easier to produce half-assed reviews of their games. And, where half of an ass won't do, Cammy (not Dunaway, you freaks) supplies a whole one. Here's the past week in original coverage:
