That would be epic! Yeah it would be. If only there was somebody in charge over there that could say "Make it happen!", but I guess Phil Spencer doesn't work for Intellivision, so we can only dream.😈 -

And the thing is, they're shilling for Nintendo Switch in a video that's not about the Switch. It's like coming to your house & saying "My house is better, Yours is an overpriced dump with termites" and expect you not to kick them out. Then they pretend to be all innocent by saying "Chill, Dude! Don't get so sensitive! You need a safe space, Bruh? Why are you so angry?" -

It used to be Aruze Corp, but they turned back into Universal Entertainment Corporation after 2008. They used to own all SNK games also, but lost those eventually. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Entertainment_Corporation They made quite a few! https://www.arcade-history.com/index.php?page=database&editeur=511 -

Haha. I grew up with it too. It's just Cap'n Crunch in a different shape tho. -

Ok. Can't help myself here, so indulge me.🥺 You actually did answer it. "How will those buttons hold up?" You said "We've been testing the crap out of them..." I assume if they fail testing, then they won't be included in the box. But in reality, Bruno here doesn't care about the question. He cares about getting his "Gotcha!" moment. And just to show the ratio of 10% haters vs 90% everybody else... and yes I cut your face in half on purpose, because no reason. -

Uh'! Really now! That was sooo 1992. Want me to recite the lyrics to "Who's going to ride your wild horses" from Achtung Baby next?🤪 -

Hahaha! I guess it was how they had to sell them, because the actual games never lived up to the promise of the artwork. This is what you bought... This is what you actually got... Kind of a shame that 4 years later "honesty in advertising took over", and created these eyesores. -

Me too. I grew up in California when this was on. My stepfather watched it every Saturday. 🙄 Then I'd go outside and see a world without twangy inbreds and hats with price tags still hanging off them. -

I would love to see that on Amico! I've read it's a lot like Joust in the way it plays. And also those other two below that @wolfy62 mentioned, Moonsweeper and Beezer. -

There was one on colecovision that had a guy holding balloons flying over an amusement park, that sounds like what you're describing. Atari had an arcade game years ago called Fast Freddy, where he hang glided over cities & schtuff. -

I replied to a couple of them. They seem to conveniently ignore the fact that Coronavirus is driving up the prices of components, and that's what is causing most of the price hike. They also believe that XBSeriesX/PS5 will be $400 instead of the more likely $600-650 price range... also because of shortages due to the pandemic. They ignored that talk between Rich & Tommy, probably because they only watched 10 minutes of it. -

What's a bog without a swamp rat playing banjo? It's E10+. We can't actually have his sister dance naked on the kitchen table like in real life.😲 -

Atmospheric sounds in the rear channels. Hooting owls, crickets, an occasional splash from a fish, distant banjo playing or the flutter of a dragonfly in Frog Bog for example. How about a game level where it rains in the bog & the sounds of water coming down envelop the room? Then the next level, we hear water droplets as the rain subsided. -
Should You Criticize a Console You Haven't Played?

I don't know how many times I've heard the stupid line "But how do you know you don't like girls if you never had sex with one?" I also don't need to shave my ass and sit in a bowl of gin to figure out it would be painful. So there's my answer. -

Leon is just his coworker that's getting a bit... fluffy. It's in response to another air traffic controller telling Lloyd Bridges "Bad news. The fog's getting thicker." Tragically Stephen Stucker, the actor who played Johnny in both Airplane movies, died of AIDS related complications in 1986. This COVID-19 pandemic, just reminds me that most of us Gen X/Boomer gay men lived through all this shit before in the 80s & 90s. -

I have a pair of those. They work great for twin stick shooters, but the suction cups & the iPad need to stay clean for them to stay there & not slide around loose. That's what I get when I use my iPad while I'm eating fried chicken.🤭 -
