Yeah, people say I’m hard to get a hold of and stuff. Usually I end up getting contacted through Eskimo Bob. All the email addresses in readme’s to old projects are pretty much defunct. For some reason I totally forgot to stick a contact form on this site too. Well, I fixed that, so if you need to get a hold of me, now there’s a way to do it, and I can hopefully still avoid ridiculous amounts of spam. (more…)
School starts tomorrow. I’m gonna be honest. This summer seems like it has gone on forever, and I can’t wait for school. I don’t think I’ve ever looked forward to school this much in my life. Maybe it’s my more mature outlook on such things, or maybe I just want to get out of my house. I’m not sure… but I’m definitely ready. It’s time for year 2. Wish me luck.
That’s right, the DS Heracles game that was released last year in Japan is going to be released in English. They are even using the title “Glory of Heracles”. Pretty awesome news if you ask me. (more…)
Yeah, I got Punch-Out for the Wii on Tuesday. It’s definitely some good stuff. I beat contender mode that night, and I’m going through Title Defense now. Wow, it’s pretty crazy. I just beat Piston Hondo a few minutes ago. He actually wasn’t too bad. Aran Ryan has been my biggest surprise. I never really knew he existed before as I wasn’t a big Super Punch-Out fan, but he’s a pretty hilarious character, and one of the most messed up Punch-Out fights that I’ve ever played. I’m almost terrified at the thought of facing his TD version because he’s so ridiculous, but it’ll likely be pretty cool at the same time. So yeah, I guess I’ll be trying Bear Hugger now. Wish me luck!
I never really liked the spiky thing in the background, so I replaced it with a crappy gradient. Oh joy! I also updated the top banner to reflect the 12 years that this site has been online… well, it’ll be 12 years on May 29 anyway… I figured it’s close enough, at least the month is right… So yeah, happy day!
I checked the mail today and it was waiting for me in a bubble envelope. Ever since I heard of the Japanese Club Nintendo release I’ve wanted it, and now it’s mine. Wahahahhahahaha!!!!! (more…)
I will soon own Game & Watch Collection for the DS. My post play surveys from December have finally arrived, and I got myself up to 800 points. This is probably the only year that I’ll ever pull it off either, just because I was able to cash in on so many older games that I already had. I know some people might not think it’s all that great, but I’ve always loved the Game & Watch games, and LCD handhelds in general. I’ve also been in a real mood for short little “pick up and play” games lately, ever since getting Retro Game Challenge, so this is gonna be perfect for me. It should be in the mail any day now, so I’ll be posting impressions when I get it. Oh yeah.
On a totally unrelated note, Eskimo Bob 53 came out yesterday, so go and watch it or else!
Well, it’s been a while since I’ve made a new fable… (more…)
If you have a DS Lite, you probably know what I’m going to talk about. The title probably gave it all away. I’m going to rant about the DS Lite’s flaky L button. I’ve had 2 DS Lites, and both eventually were victims of the L button curse. (more…)
I got a little Acer Aspire One netbook today. I’m posting this from it now. It’s ridiculously small and feels a bit cramped, but I can see it being pretty darn useful at school. I’m shocked at how small the screen resolution of 1280×600 feels. I remember back in 1994 I thought I was awesome cuz I was using 800×600 on my new 486. Ah, the good old days.
