Well, if that is true, I understand why; the TG-16 had much better games than the NES and a deeper library than both the Genesis and the SNES at the time.

This post was bad and you should feel bad.

This shit wouldn't even make the cut there. This is strictly youtube fodder

Why do you need a semi-automatic? Are you Mr. Magoo? Can't make a hit in less than six shots? It's not our fault you lack decent hand-eye coordination like normal people.

COBY IS GARBAGE. FUCK THEM. Every fucking thing I ever bought from them broke within three months, regardless of how much I protected them from physical damage.

I'd like to watch that too, if only for the novelty.

Yeah, I thought about that too - the only way it would make sense is if Superman had humiliated Lex early on during his hero career in some fashion. Probably a few stories have been written in that vein.

The real loser of that first fight? Anyone who sat through the whole thing.

indeed

So IOW you don't like sci-fi, you just want space opera fantasy. That's cool and all, but that's not what Star Trek is supposed to be; at least it wasn't until JJ Abrams decided to take over and slowly suck the (admittedly low levels of) plausibility left in its universe. You want Star Wars? Then go over and watch the…

Wow, I just watched you do the nerd version of this to Mr. Wilkins. Kudos!

mxe is kinda weak sauce as far as disassociatives go; 3-MeO-PCP is better (if we're looking for sorta-legal disassociatives, that is)

I'm just scared that this JJ dude is going to try to 'grim'n'gritty' Star Trek (which was already done successfully by DS9, IMO) in his own way and end up rending it a paint-by-numbers action fest that just happens to have sci-fi as a motif.

So in other words, random sensations from nerves expecting transmissions from missing body parts? or something like that

Well, I tend to agree with you there, but I have the bad feeling that JJ's going to 'babify' the production along with the military aggression and not even attempt to cover the sci-fi aspects with "technobabble" ala TNG-era writers; instead he'll just start making the tech look nearly magical ala "Star Wars". When…

Also, I doubt he would reference Jack Nicholson's Joker because already cited another Nicholson character ("The Shining") and I doubt he would be that narrow in his choice of options (unless he wanted to come off as being on Jack's jock, which I doubt).

Because Roddenberry's dream of a peaceful Starfleet seems less and less realistic to the kiddies these days, so they branch out into the more militaristic aspects of Star Trek for the 'darkness' they crave. We saw this a bit with the old B&B mindthink when it came to their rifle designs; but now they're going full…

WTF, I'm serious about that, dude. The thought of a typical neckbeard 'brony' coaxing my young niece into vulnerable situations via her toys makes me so goddamn angry that I can barely contain myself. The corruption of innocence makes me SICK.

Some of that costume cheese leaked over into TNG's first and second season, IIRC (along with cheesy plots, ie "The Naked Tomorrow", "Angel One", the one episode with "the planet of aliens who resemble tribal African humans" (may be the episode where Tasha Yar is killed as well, not sure). Ah, the unsteady first two…
