Hmmm... Wondering if the Wii Netflix will get updated with the new profiles feature? Probably not. :-(

[Sonic the Hedgehog AKA Zippy the Porcupine Demo]

First Space Invaders, Missile Command, Asteroids, Ms. Pac-Man, Centipede and now Mario (Princess Rescue) and Sonic..... Atari 2600 has the best games!

 

Nice work!

[Re-Started Frenzy / Berzerk :)]

I was in the bathroom hanging a picture and i fell and bumped my head on the toilet.Thats when i came up with the idea for the flux capaciter..............some of the greatest ideas in human history are invented while thinking in the bathroom.

Probably true, but not that example since it was science fiction.

I don't think Mike "tries" to be funny. He just acts that way and if you think it's funny that's okay.

[Wall-E 2600]

Yeah, Wall-E played an Atari 2600 in the movie. NOT a NES. NOT a PlayStation. NOT an Xbox, but an ATARI!

 

Now someone needs to edit the movie so it looks like he's playing this game.

[Steam Summer Sale]

Yep Torchlight II... Been waiting for it to drop. For $5 you can't go wrong.

[Had a chance to grab a copy of Rescue Terra........]

Did he try to offer the lot with Rescue Terra for a higher price?

[Angry Video Game Nerd Plays Atari 2600 - new vid....]

I love CGR too... But most of his reviews are simply "Hey watch me play this game and make semi-humorous comments!" They're what I call "fun" reviews, but not really serious journalistic reviews like each opening says. His stuff is still awesome though and I usually watch a few of his videos as I drop off to sleep.

[Newsflash: ET is not the worst game ever made...]

Always wondered what happened to that game. It's seems more of a practical joke on the players by Penn & Teller than anything else.

[Xbox One advertising plan]

As I'm watching that Kinect video where the guy says how it can read your heart rate, facial expressions, brainwaves, whatever, I couldn't help but think of this quote (as corny as it is written.)

 

"Let us redefine progress to mean that just because we CAN do a thing it does not necessarily follow that we MUST do that thing." - Federation President, Star Trek IV: The Undiscovered Country

 

Yeah, enjoy being spied on Xbox One owners. That camera is one of the reasons I didn't buy the original Kinect. And if it's now a required peripheral... Guess it'll never be in my home.

I found YouTube channel to be unusable on Wii. Yes, too much buffering not enough playing.

[let's experiment! "roguelike engine"]

Looks good!

 

I used to play a Rogue game on the Atari 8-bit called "ARogue."

 

 

Are you going to make this mostly an action game or more like the "roll the dice" style where the player chooses from a menu what they will do?

[Work In Progress: "Bentley Bear: Crystal Quest"]

Yes, definitely agree with Schmutzpuppe! The 7800 needs more exclusive (and great, like this one) titles!

 

Thanks again Bob for keeping the flame alive!

[The ABSOLUTE worst games of all time.]

There are worse games on the NES besides Skull & Crossbones. It's not really like the arcade classic, but it's okay.

[Angry Video Game Nerd Plays Atari 2600 - new vid....]

I like James and AVGN. (Although some of the swearing does go over the top, I can't listen to it with other people around!) Other than that, he's pretty fun to watch. (I really wish they'd do another Glitch Gremlin episode. Kevin Finn as the gremlin was the funniest thing ever!)

I like Netflix on Wii over my 360 since it's FREE. Frickin' ridiculous that people need a Gold Subscription to use a service they already pay for.

[Muncher - New 2600 Homebrew]

Good game! Tough!

[Re-Started Frenzy / Berzerk :)]

Me like...

[The reason we got ugly super nintendo in the USA.]

"Thought the Jaguar looked like a toilet."

 

Only with the Jaguar CD attached! Alone the Jaguar looks like a hot rod.

[Rumor: XBoxOne to abandon DRM and Used Games policies]

Anyway, biggest consumer-relations blunder since New Coke.

If the Xbox One blunder is "New Coke" then what is Windows 8? Hmm... MS seems to be the blunder King lately.

[Spooky Mansion (Early demo)]

Are the rooms supposed to be random? I went back-forth between the same two rooms and they were different every time.

 

Also, if I were in a spooky mansion, I think I would be running a bit faster. But that's just me.

[PS4 or Xbox One?]

So, Microsoft has recinded the Always On and Games Resale policies:

Someone finally woke up to the fact that this was going to be a bloodbath for them. Now if only they'd drop the price by $100...

[Spooky Mansion (Early demo)]

Maybe instead of just dropping the amulets, you have to throw them at the boss to escape. Add some action to it.

[Spooky Mansion (Early demo)]

Where's the amulet? Is it that tiny dot? I must not have found it yet.

 

Hard to get around the ghost, so I usually just keep going up or down. Maybe have one ghost guarding the correct exit and another for a diversion?

[Spooky Mansion (Early demo)]

Looking good!
