Soera, I don't know if you already have this, but I thought of you when I saw this: a motion-sensor Slime night light  :)

Is it wrong that I just spent 30 min playing Jaws on the NES?

I actually have put a few hours in the game!  It was dissapointing to see how small the world was, but it actually is not too bad.  Except for the boss fight...

If you have to ask...

 :o

Speaking of 3DS', Vita's/handhelds...anyone heard anything about the VitaPSTV and/or is anyone else looking forward to getting one as much as I am?

Yeah, I want one but it's not in top priority of purchases atm.

I'm not a very smart person... not at all. 

I'm trying to buy yet another arcade cabinet.  It's PacMan this time.  Dude wants $400 right now, but I'm going to shoot him $300 and hope to land at $350.  It's a couple hours away from here, so I haven't seen it in person.  Damn this arcade habit.  I don't have room for it, but I want every reasonably priced cabinet I can find.

Yeah, I'm quoting myself.  What of it??

I really need to stay off of craigslist.  I've sent emails for 4 arcade cabinets since lunch.  Pacman, Ms. Pacman, Double Dragon, and Marvel vs. Capcom.  This could get expensive real fast.

Dont feel bad Turf. You can donate the arcade. How about this? I'll give you 100 to cover the delivery fee and you bring it to my home? Problem solved. You will no longer be creating chaos in your game room but still feeding your arcade habit. What you say? 8)

How about I give you $100 and you come clean out my garage and transform it into the arcade / work space that I want.

 I do think it would be cool to see your garage into an arcade room so if it ever happens, please do a video for me  :o

That will be pretty sweet! I went the Mame route after picking up a cheap Street Fighter 2 conversion with a dying monitor.

How about this? This can be a temporary solution? It's pretty cool. The Porta Pi Desktop Arcade cabinet. The person who makes these also sells them in kits.

Decided to cut some games from my want list this morning. Most of the titles cut were Genesis, SNES, and NES games that I can't see myself actively pursing or paying full market value for some day. If I ever come across them for super cheap, sure I'll buy them, but otherwise I am content not having them in the collection.

You know an underrated feeling?  Putting a "new to you" NES game in and it comes on the first time with no cleaning.

Another underrated feeling: 4 vodka and cranberries.

In celebration of Halloween I have been debating on starting a Resident Evil marathon, playing all the main games from 0 to 6 (also included are Code Veronica and Revelations). I normally would be diving right into this, but I have been studying for about a month and half for the CompTIA A+ certification and want to make sure I keep the momentum going with them. Given I'd have 9 games to get through in 2-months, I will have to decide really soon. Thought I'd ask the room and see what everyone else thinks?


If I do not go this route, I will probably be picking some other horror themed game to play this October. In past years I've played various Castlevania games and Fatal Frame, and some potential candidates this year are Disgaea (not really horror-themed, but always gave somewhat of a Halloween-ish vibe), Clock Tower 2, Dead Space, or Dark Souls.
