Why is the Nintendo Switch so talked about in retro gaming circles? It's not retro, it's a new console!
-

I know I play retro games to get something unique, as opposed to the Sgt. McShootaman games that have dominated for so long. Switch is inherently different & unique despite its newness.
Plus Nintendo has a rep for long-term playability & value, so it's a way to buy in cheap before nostalgia jacks up prices in 20 years (maybe).

I'm just going to make a video of me saying "Atari!" and base my kickstarter campaign just on that.

I have a great YouTube channel idea: I play video games and say stupid things on the voiceover. We'lll call it "let's play" videos.

For me, I don't want to see someone else play a game I might be (very) interested in...It would ruin the surprise. But there are cases where I want to see a game played just to refresh my memory or hear the music etc., (or maybe I'm otherwise busy) and then it's best with no stupid voiceover at all...

Okay, our next contestant on AtariAge likes to collect cartridges. Tell us more about that...

The Minnesota state lottery now has a "pac man" scratch-off game.

The important fact of the matter is that it's less than 2 months to Midwest Gaming Classic.

Vote for me: I dislike bad things, and promise more good things

Those "arcade classics " 3 and 4 are great, but have zero advertising or web presence.

I'm starting my own official high score records. I am the only entrant, and I'm #1 on all the games, and no further entries will be accepted. Go me!

Since the mid 1980's, I've kept a book of personal records. However I once inherited it from my big brother, so a small share of the records still are his. Only in the case I was close to beating it, I have written down my record. Then again he hasn't had a chance to beat any records since 1986 or so, meaning all games he never played and all those where I beat his record, he can't overcome my score.

What were you thinking when you pulled that off? I got Nolan Bushnell breathing down my neck for this! Turn in your joystick & buttons, you're off of the Atari Force!

I got rid of my Bill Cosby TI-99/4A gallery on here. Seemed like the right thing to do.

The joy & reason of Midwest Gaming Classic isn't about the games, but the fact that you aren't alone in your hobby. Also, I am so totally drunk right now.

That was my thought when I went to my first show in 2004 (the only one I attended as a "civilian" rather than staff member). Compared to what these shows are now it was laughably small and rinky-dink but I thought it was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen. I thought it equally amazing that there were others like me.

Yay, stomach flu! Right at the same time I'm trying to quit smoking via vaping.

Pat the NES Punk seems like an angry talk radio show host...over video games?

If you need a quiet place to reflect on your thoughts, any place showing Assassin's Creed will do.

Tomorrow I'll be on my way to Akihabara.

Maybe a new year's resolution would be to make a TI-99/4A game by game podcast instead of going through it in my head.
