    Who remembers going to Toys R Us in the mid-late 1990's when they had so much oversupply of NES games that they were selling them for so cheap that they put these huge dark orange stickers on them and they were particularity giving them away.

      I also remember a bin of SNES Harvest Moons for 10 bucks each, and Sega CDS for 20. I wish I had a time machine

      I remember them being 5 bucks, I got Star Tropics 1 and 2, Monopoly, Dance Aerobics, Zombie Nation, and a bunch of others. Don't have many left now though

    For all the pinball fans here, what is your #1 all-time favorite machine? For me it's The Lord of the Rings, though Sorcerer is a darn close second. =)

    I found a really good classic rock station while FM surfing the other day, then the station identified itself as an 'Oldies' station. How depressing.

      Stuff my dad listened to as an early teen was called oldies before he turned 30.

      NAMCOT is what NAMCO sleeps on when it goes camping.
