@Ginette: Ha ha. Yeah, it's probably the damn parents' fault for buying Beyblades but nothing to play them on. It's like buying your kid a Nintendo back in the day but not a TV and getting pissed when it causes burn-in on the big-screen, rear-projection TV.

@MashyLarry: I asked the same thing. :) Check the earlier comments. Apparently, Beyblades are destruction machines!

This is why you buy your kids Yu-Gi-Oh! cards instead of Beyblade destructo-tops. I never ruined our bath tub after years of playing Duel Monsters in it.

@Squirrelbot3000: That's awesome. Sometimes, you just gotta be scared to death that your dad is going to incinerate your treasured belongings before you grow up. :P

@Shemhazaix300: Wow. How time flies...

@imonwelfare: Pssh! My bathtub is made of a anodized steel with diamond fixtures! ;)

@AngelMayLaugh's love is like surgery and your love is like scars: Here's hoping!

@BD2021: :) That's what I say! If someone insults me but uses proper spelling, grammar, et al., then I'd probably applaud their efforts.

@Lauchlin: Hm, that's actually a good point. Lack of keyboard doesn't stop me, but I can see it as an impetus for slang and shorthand.

@spectheintro: Basically, yeah. There are going to be asshats everywhere, but I at least will respect what someone has to say if they can write it out properly.

@JPS: Wait, nine years ago? I don't think Beyblades even existed back then, did it? Isn't it a relatively new thing?

@JPS: Daaayum. Beyblades ain't messing around! Why not up it even more and include fuel-powered motors for MAXIMUM DESTRUCTION? It's not like these are toys that would appeal to young children or anything...

*sigh* If I were in control of this country, I'd fine individuals—eventually, imprison them—who so utterly abuse and destroy the English language. Are people really so stupid that they can't type out coherent sentences using real words, or is it some sort of joke that I don't get?

What the hell kind of tub gets scratched up and destroyed by a bunch of plastic toys?

So Nintendo would rather people pay $40 for DS shovelware crap than $0.99 for iOS shovelware crap? :P

@ca$h: I'm just trying to make sense of your "at least break even" comment. Seems odd considering how much money they've collected from the Zelda series.

@billysan: I think they've been really good about revisiting the Mario formula with each new game, but I can see where you're coming from. A real Yoshi's Island sequel would be awesome.

:( Wasn't impressed. Maybe all these videos game have spoiled reality for me. The human body just seems to slow and limited.

@billysan: Unlike. 2D is king.

@ca$h: ? Nintendo has been raking in gigatons of cash over the past few years. Perhaps you're thinking of Sony?
