So your reasoning for Nintendo not lasting as a company is... everything dies out eventually? Well, I’m certainly convinced.

Been playing Smash since the 64 days, and quite honestly, I buy the game out of nostalgia and obligation more than the original reason - I want to play Smash with my high school friends (who no longer live in my state and rarely play video games).

I’ve played through Landstalker a couple times - once as a kid, and again as an adult (it was on the Wii e-shop at some point). I only knew about it because I had the Sega Channel (if you remember what the hell that was) and stumbled upon it that way.

The thing that I discovered about the Sega Channel was that the…

Shep, I can’t get the Pro Controller price down to $51 - it’s still $59 at checkout on Amazon.

Kellen Clemens has a 16:21 TD:INT ratio over a 12-year career.  Please tell me more about how Kaepernick sucks.

This is terrible news for me, the one person in the country who enjoys their overly sweet marinara sauce and synthetic garlic “butter” dipping sauce. I’ll be in my basement sitting shiva if you need me.

I’m not contradicting your story, just pointing out that I learned it from a webcomic published in 2008, but your story predates that by several years.

I always thought that was a Drew Toothpaste original.

Best example of this was left off.  Dead Space 2.

Texas isn’t “the South”.  It’s Texas.

I went to school outside of Austin, and we’d always have to go to Gumby’s and get pizza rolls. Not quite an hour-and-a-half trek, but it was going to take up most of your evening for sure.

Until you got to the part about Philly, I damn near thought you went to the same school as me, or were in the same fraternity even. (I went to a tiny school, so the odds of that happening are pretty low.)

Pikmin 3 was probably my favorite Wii U game.  Dying for Pikmin 4 right now.

As long as he can abruptly tell me which of my favorite celebrities killed themselves, I don’t care what his official position is.

Now’s as good of a time as any to mention that SI’s Andy Benoit said Richie should be considered for the Hall of Fame because his record has been squeaky clean in the last few years, whereas Jonathan Martin has fallen off the deep end.

It’s actually kind of a no-brainer with a guy all-in and two others left to act after you.  He does it pretty quickly.  He knows someone probably has a higher pocket pair.  At any rate, Zhu had him nearly covered so he had to think about whether he was willing to make that his last hand.

I really thought this was going to be one of the “available now!” reveals during either Ubi’s presser or Nintendo’s, and I have to say, I’m disappointed that I have to wait two weeks for it.

I’m disappointed because I thought for sure it was going to be available after either their press conference or after tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct. I’ve got a trip next week so I could really use a fresh game to take with me. Alas.

Q: Why did Square-Enix even bother having an E3 presser in the first place?
