I hate scummy sellers that try to pass of repros as the genuine article. I’ve come across more and more instances of this online and in brick and mortar retro game stores in the last couple of years. Always ask to see the PCB and compare it to images on NesCartDB. Once, I almost spent $100 on a copy of Panic…

Rygar in particular falls into my list of favorite NES games alongside The Battle of Olympus, Zelda II, Faxanadu and Goonies II

Well, I’m guessing the source code for 3D World Runner and Rad Racer are lost to antiquity.

Loved the shout out to Baba is You.

I thought of this as soon as I read the headline.

I’m really disappointed in this one. The game selection is pretty anemic and, apparently, so are the options and feature set. Konami could have included any or all of these from their catalog: Pooyan, Time Pilot, Yie Ar Kung-Fu, Rush’n Attack, Track & Field, Gyruss, Sunset Riders, Frogger....but nope!

I have never seen this movie. However, I was forced to go watch what is essentially a live action version of it called a Passion Play when I was 4. It was brutal. There was lots of blood effects and screaming. Watching a bloodied Jesus carry a cross past me was horrifying. This was more than 30 years ago, but I still…

My two are teenagers now but I remember a few from when they were younger:

I think I’ll start a poll:

There had better be someone named Don Gero in this village.

For what its worth, I just use OneNote for all of my journaling. 

Best. Headline. Ever.

Best. Headline. Ever.

I have this question too. I’ve been using delicious since 2007.

I’ve been heating and eating my cereal that way for many years. I remember seeing a commercial for shredded wheat back in the late 80's where some lady microwaved her cereal and, being an impressionable kid, I had to try it. Some cereals are better hot than others. Cap N Cruch, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Golden Grahams,…

But I like making spreadsheets and it’s calming entering data.

Rage quitting is one thing, but rage shitting?

Yeah, looks like laser-cut and engraved wood to me (3/16" thick maybe?)
