  1. Metroid II. Maybe my favorite game ever made. It's perfect. I play through it every Christmas and it's just one of those games that gets me every time. Super Mario Land as well. I've probably beaten that a hundred times. Can't forget Luigi's Mansion or Animal Crossing: New Leaf either.
  2. It hasn’t even been two years since my last update again but I’m back! I moved some stuff around when I was back for thanksgiving to see my family. I’m in college now so I don’t live with all of this stuff anymore. Maybe tomorrow I can post some pictures of my dorm room video game setup if anyone is interested. But this is what the old game room looked like when I left yesterday.
  3. Oh man that’s so sweet. The lego 2600 is so cool. Much cooler than the NES one in my opinion. Honestly I think it might be my favorite set they’ve ever made; the attention to detail is phenomenal. I mean the instructions look just like the instructions to the real 2600! I really do have to get me one of these sets before they go out of print. It’s been too long since I’ve built a good old Lego set.
  4. When I first saw your post, I legitimately thought that maybe you were the guy I bought this from on eBay before I noticed the date on your post. But yeah, Game Boy Dr. Mario is great fun. Probably my favorite version of the game. I used to not be too big of a Dr. Mario fan, but over the last year or so it’s hooked me in a way few other games have. It was one of the few games my friend would play on my Game Boy constantly back in high school, alongside Tetris and Donkey Kong 94.
  5. @Smell Dawg what a coincidence— look at what my personal copy looks like!
  6. If you’re interested in that you might want to check this out. It’s pretty entertaining.
  7. I finally got a new (non-rotten) disc to go with my case for Mario Kart Double Dash! After this, I may never pay for a GameCube game again. They’re so expensive nowadays and I paid way too much for this. Not that I was ripped off, it just goes for a lot these days.
  8. I forgot how perfect this game is. One of the best ports of any game ever if you ask me. So many memories playing it too.
  9. Some guy came into work after we closed and started filming me 😞

      Why? And how did he get in when you were closed?

      Whelp, glad it sounds like nothing bad happened outside of the creepiness factor

  10. Hold my beer. This is the one game I can actually kind of play.
  11. I replaced this GBA screen lens with a nice glass one. The old plastic one was really cheap and super prone to scratches. Like, REALLY prone. I also cleaned out the innards, so it looks a lot nicer now. You can really see that with the speaker. Unfortunately I didn’t take any “before” pictures, so this picture I took around Christmas is the best I could do for a comparison.
  12. Some things never go out of style.
  13. Been a while since I updated this last. A few things have changed down here since then.

    I got a GameCube!

    When I was a kid, I couldn’t get into it. We had the Trilogy version on our Wii’s hard drive since it was modded. Last year I tried that version again and I liked it a lot more, but fell off it eventually for some reason. I really like this original version better though. The controls feel weird at first since it’s not twin stick like a lot of stuff that came out after, but it clicks after a while and I vastly prefer it over the motion controls of the Wii version.

    I got a GameCube!

    Grabbed my first game since getting the system!

    I got a GameCube!

    Really enjoying playing this game again. What are your thoughts on this one? It’s probably the most divisive Mario game.

    I got a GameCube!

    I’d love to get a Game Boy Player someday. I was looking into it earlier today to see how much they were going for. I knew they were a little pricey, but I had no idea just how expensive they have gotten! A Game Boy Player with the boot-up disc costs like 200 dollars! No thanks. I’ll stick with the Super Game Boy for now.

    I got a GameCube!

    This was my Christmas present this year! I’m so happy with it. This was the last of the main Nintendo consoles that I needed to get. Now I have everything from NES to Switch. I had a few GameCube games already because I could play them on the Wii. But I haven’t gotten anything for it in a long time. The prices on GameCube games are absolutely crazy right now. Oh well. Im still very happy with it.
  19. Merry Christmas, you wonderful Building and Loan pals!

  20. Hear me out, Santa deniers: if Santa isn’t real, why do the presents you get on Christmas say “From: Santa” on them? It just doesn’t add up…

      Clearly you missed this court case.  Since the United States Government declares this man to be Santa Claus, this court will not dispute it. Case dismissed.

      Justice was served.

      Merry Christmas Young! Merry Christmas everyone!

  21. When you guys are done with this, I’m definitely porting it to VIC-20! Mine doesn’t work anymore, but that doesn’t mean I don’t mess around in BASIC on emulators still! (I really should get around to fixing that computer one of these days.)
  22. I’ve always really enjoyed the Muppet Christmas album with John Denver.
