The guys from TPCI are a bunch of great folks. I judge for the card game on the side, and I've gotten to work side by side with many of these people for the past 7 years. You should consider maybe attending one of these tournaments some time like you did with Bronycon. Watching it online is only a small fraction of…

If a price change is missed, they are supposed to honor that price. Unfortunately it sounds like that particular store manager didn't know what they were doing. That is not the policy whatsoever, and it's obvious they didn't want to help you out. With the way things are being changed up in the company, the store…

The 30th, actually.

They are getting the Hyrule Warriors Limited edition that Europe got though. But just at the Nintendo World store in NYC.

I've actually enjoyed seeing the posts you've been making here all weekend. I'm here with my fiancé and some of our friends, and it's one of the most fun weekend conventions we go to every year. Glad to see you've been enjoying yourself so far, Mike!

there are plenty of kids here.

the badges aren't a requirement. They are something attendees can choose to wear if they want.

Get hype! What an awesome match to watch!

The article that shows more of the pictures says the kids in the village don't even have any toys. I guess these sunglasses were in a box that they found on the side of the road, and they make fun out of that!

I've been involved in the Pokemon TCG for 7 years now. Think of nationals as any fun nerdy get together, like a convention. I've been a judge at this event for the past 6 years. It's one of those things that people don't realize, the game still has a really strong competitive presence. When there are almost 2000…

The waitlist was more of thing for people who were in store and talking about potentially wanting one. You'd be put on the list if you'd expressed interest in the system. Money wasn't put down on it, and you weren't forced into it. Mostly it was a convenience if you didn't want to shop around for one.

I have a ton of them left. I still collect PS2 heavily. Some of my gems:

The unfortunate thing is people buy games new, hate them, and then come back wanting to return that same game. Walmart won't do it, Best Buy won't do it. Gamestop won't either. But by buying used, you have a week to play the game, and if you hate it, come get your money back, no questions asked. I'd rather not be out…

The Vita really is a wonderful handheld, but the lackluster games are what is going to end up being the downfall of the system. The only reason I have a Vita is because I got a free one through Sony as a training tool. I've played Uncharted, Metal Gear Solid HD, Disgaea 3, Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward, and…

This sounds a lot like some of what I've been going through for about 2 years now. And you've done a lot of what I have. I was close to 300 pounds in October 2010 when i started doing the weight loss thing. I'm currently hovering between 210 and 215. I have 45 pounds more to lose at this point, but the progress that…

This was always one of my favorites. Magical Trick Society did some of the best remixes from this series.
