I'm not sure if this is news in the US or not but Target is pulling all of their stores out of Canada. I'll need to go get a new job now

Geez, how many did they have up there? I've got a feeling the Target empire is crumbling. Give another 10 years, I bet there won't even be any such thing as a brick and mortar store left. Well, maybe groceries, but then again maybe not. 

They have 133 up here but they have only been open for 2 years.

And then on the way home, I grabbed a Wario figure from Target.  First I actually seen the figure in the stores around here, though I believe it isn't just released.

I have been looking for that Wario for a long time!

I think that more is always better
I like the current view if I want detailed information but the other view will be great if I just feel like looking through everything.

PS: please please PLEASE work on the publisher/developer

Picked up Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for pretty cheap today. Has anyone played this? How is it?

I put a bit of time into and I enjoyed it.

No picture but I'm really happy with my latest purchase. I bought the Spartan version of the Halo 3 controller with a chat pad for $10.

I will take cold over hot. I can always put on more clothing but at a certain point I can't get any more naked.

Dear God! What happened?! Did your car get attacked by Wolverine?

It's not his car. That's a mortar shell.

Technically it could still be his car lol

General / Re: Why do people hate on the N64?

« on: January 02, 2015, 12:23:22 pm »

People hate on the n64.

I understand that the N64 was a huge departure from the NES and SNES, both graphically and content-wise, but the widespread hate the N64 gets is very undeserved imo. It gave us some of the best games ever made, and many other games that are insanely good. Sure it lacked in the RPG department, the "64" naming gimmick was a bit overkill, but come on, it was an amazing system!

I disagree. The hate on the N64 is very deserved. Its a library of just under 300 games where almost 50% of them are based on sports or racing. It absolutely lacked in the RPG department where literally nothing on there can be counted as an RPG. And lets not even start on the upside down trident that is the controller. There was not anything redeeming about the system. I cant name 5 games on that system that are "insanely good" much less "best games ever made".

I think the amount of hate that it gets is too high. It made a number of great games at the time, although most haven't aged well. I think it has become the ET of consoles, there are worse ones out there but people just like to hate on it.
