Bob Mackey of 61 Frames per Second has joined the crusade to inform developers that, hey, not everyone has an HDTV. And in the current state of the economy, some of us aren't in a great rush to upgrade so we can read their damned text. --LBD "Nytetrayn"

Oh, Japan

"Japanese Man Wants to Marry an Anime Character (Of Course)" Crazy. The guy wants to get one million signatures on a petition to the government in order to allow him to do this. The anime character in question would be Mikuru Asahina from The Melancholy of Haruhi...

Miyamoto Talks, Talks, and Talks Some More

Nothing like a good Miyamoto interview, and MTV Multiplayer's by Stephen Totilo looks like it may be one of the better ones. It comes in three seperate parts, so there's quite a bit to go over; in fact, I haven't even had a chance to read it fully yet. But here's a...

Walky Reviews City Commander

Not that I think anyone reading this especially cares, but just in case: Walky has a nice review of the aforementioned City Commander armor, which you can find here. Wow, this guy is big. I'm actually rather surprised that he's nearly as tall, if not as tall, as the...

Super Mario 2 Blues

Two years ago, I wrote a special article on PMO to celebrate the 18th Anniversary of Super Mario Bros. 2. Why 18? Because the timing happened to be right, and I just really wanted to write about it, mostly. Fast-forward to now, and while I've been sick (still...

City Commander, Transform!

This is nothing short of pure awesome. I think I may have linked to it before in its early stages, but it's worth mentioning again. The TransFormers fans at FansProject heard the cry from many other fans of the one problem had by the TransFormers Classics release of...

MegaMan Legends Does AMV Hell

Nothing can really compare to the original series of AMV Hell, but damn if people don't try anyway. Here's a decent effort to match some scenes and images from MegaMan Legends up to some different songs and sound bytes. Be forewarned, there's a little language in...

You Always Remember Your First…

They say you never forget your first. Of course, this usually applies to... other things: Kisses, girlfriends, cars, sometimes even video games and comic books and the like. But there is another first which is often overlooked: The first enemy you encounter in a video...

Why Reggie Likes Nintendo

One reason I like Reggie Fils-Aime, Nintendo of America President, is because he seems to really, truly enjoy the products Nintendo makes and what they're all about. This is particularly evident as he gives his speech before an audience at the Entertainment Software...

What a Horrible Night to Have the Flu…

Actually, I've had the flu for several days now. It hasn't been fun. My posting at MMN has suffered for it, my posting here has suffered for it, and most of all, I've suffered for it, because I've had to work through it for most of the week. But at least the weekend...

Matt over on Press the Buttons found something neat today that's been lingering for a couple of weeks. Over on Nintendo of Europe's website, they have a three-part interview with the staff of Good-Feel Co., Ltd, the developers of Wario Land: Shake It! Or as it's...

We’re Back!

And by "we," I mean "I." Nonetheless, PMO is back on the air! Er, net. Whatever. In any case, it took awhile since being ousted from the old server, but thanks to the efforts of LanceHeart, we've got things running pretty well again. A few things are changed-- for...

Dear Verizon: Go. To. Hell.

All the funny Michael Bay ads in the world wouldn't make up for this. "We'll help you find your daughter over her dead body. What's that? Oh, here you go, then." --LBD "Nytetrayn"

Ancient Apparel

In my continued hunt for the Super Mario Bros. 3 t-shirt, I decided to check eBay again, to no avail. But holy hell, look at what I did find: I'm pretty sure I remember this from when I was growing up; that art came from an issue, the first issue in fact, of Nintendo...
