@video_game_master_vinny: How far away were you?

@jim_error404: Yeah, this totally has no link to piracy, there's no doubt in my mind about that, and judging from the comments above, I was unclear on that point. I actually support getting the tools out there, so long as the process doesn't make use of illegal code. One of the reasons I'm interested in the 3DS is…

Those boots aren't really there! Or, at least, they aren't on the hedgehog.

Can we have a warning on anything using that alarm clock sound?

@Saint In: I want to let you know that I found that comment hilarious.

@CandlejackDANZA: Back in my day, if you didn't like a product, you didn't use it.

@DrunkRaba: Funny, because -I- wish we changed the clocks daily!

@Onslaught Six: Then why would you care if All Stars is on the Virtual Console?

@Batman: Also the fact that it'd make the original three games kind of not worth buying, if you could get All Stars for like two dollars more than just one of them.

Was that Mario music playing in the beginning of the first one?

@Coillscath: Yup, an IR camera, actually.

@knownspace: The Wii puts YOU in control of the camera, in the Wiimote.

@moody.designer: That's a good idea, but there might be problems with tall players if the camera gets too low, because of that 45 degree view angle. You'd have to stand far enough away that a 45 degree line coming up from the camera would be above your head.

I remember trying to learn Kanji... And actually retained a good number of them. There was this cool program for the Palm Pilot, that would show you a character, then you can tap to advance, and it'd show you the representation in "plain" text.

@lonewolf80: Texas Hold'em is a type of poker. What a lot of people think of for Poker is five card draw, where you draw five cards, discard up to three, and get that many back in the attempt to make the best poker hand. It's those hands that you're trying to make in Texas Hold'em, too.

@Tiller: Poker's a really fun game, and a blast to play, in my opinion. And five bucks is a steal to learn it! Most have to learn the hard way when not to go all in. ;)

@viciousarcanum: Yep, that's exactly true. You need to have the string pressed down so that it touches the fret firmly enough that it will only vibrate up until the fret.

@viciousarcanum: Well, yes, but presumably you'd be playing the game to learn how to play guitar, based on their marketing.

@Onslaught Six: You can always retrain yourself, and make your life much happier. XD Will probably make playing MUCH easier, if your fingers have built up the strength and such for pressing down far too hard, since now you'll be able to do so much more, with less effort.

@Derek Baumer: This, a hundred times. I was looking through the comments before posting.
