*moment of silence*

There are two kinds of Let's Plays that work for me:

Whoa now... Critically acclaimed and much beloved yes. Easy to get into? No.. It's near impenetrable. If you were a gamer in the late 90's and you picked this up in your early-mid teens, you could be forgiven for thinking that. But between some lousy translation/engrish, blurry graphics and thick story, a new player…

I think this was accessible to beginners in 1997, and may have been true in 2003, but isn't the case in 2014.

Dance, dance for the Game Boy. Dance to one of the catchiest tunes from my favourite 2D Mario game ever.

Fall Of The Foot Clan was one of my all-time favorite GB games as a kid.

Anyone else own one of these monstrosities?

Perhaps Pokemon Red is my favourite memory, but Link's Awakening taught me a life lesson. You can steal from the item shop in that game, but as a result everyone in the entire game will stop calling you Link and start calling you "THIEF" instead. As a child, that guilt was unbearable - I genuinely had to restart the…

So in 10,000 years, people will freak out about THE END OF THE WORLD coming, as the Texan Calendar runs out.
