I don’t know what’s more painful. Those bags, or the on-screen graphics of your typical Japanese general interest TV show.

I was asking *why* they like it more, not questioning that they like it more. On the surface they look the same to me, so I was in need of more insight.

I still don’t understand the obsession people have with Melee, rather than newer entries in the series.

“Electronic Gaming Monthly had hyped the game like crazy. They’d said it was as good as Mario and Sonic. I spent some of my hard-earned lawn-mowing money on that game. Electronic Gaming Monthly were a bunch of liars.”

Does this town of Shady Glen not have a police department?

Pray this dosn’t fall to the levels of the Sonic fandom.
