Tubin’: Videos from the Bottom of My YouTube “Watch Later” List
After a decade or so, it’s officially “later”.
Super Mario Bros. 2: The Commercial
It’s the 30th anniversary!
Circuit City to Rise from the Ashes?
i.e. Another excuse to dig up old commercials.
The Z Fighters Make the Ultimate Wish
And Krillin no longer lacks Focus.
Dollar Store Dimwittery and the Soft Launch of the Nyteworks YouTube Channel
How far can $5 take you in Canada? Plus, how long it took me to make this stupid thing.
Thoughts on Marketing the Wii U
Nintendo’s financial reports have seen better days, but what might help? I have a few ideas…
Looking Back at the Classic HBO Intro
Those who had cable in the 80’s might remember this nostalgic little gem.
SEGA Un-Confidential: A Past Look to the Future with 32X, Sonic & Knuckles, Power Rangers, & More
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxUKvM8yvYo First of all, I haven't forgotten about this. That's more of a "crack my knuckles, pop my neck, sit down for a while" thing, while this is just some quick fun. That said, I came across this interesting video on YouTube, a...
Commercial Break – 2/9/13
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bgl5kLKLTpY Computer-generated imagery, circa 1984. And by "computer-generated," I mean "I would joke that someone made this commercial in MS Paint, except the program didn't even exist until the following year."...
The Muppets & Miz TV Pay Tribute to the Troops
Tonight, WWE aired its annual two-hour Tribute to the Troops show on USA, and guest starring throughout the show were none other than the Muppets! Right here is what might be the best segment with them, as The Miz asks the hard questions about Kermit and Miss Piggy's...
WWE Brings Christmas Hijinx Highlights from 1985’s TNT
WWE posted something interesting to their YouTube page recently: Some holiday-themed clips from their old television show Tuesday Night Titans, a talk show of sorts hosted by Vince McMahon and Lord Alfred Hayes which ran from 1984 through 1986. I've only seen bits and...

Sifl and Olly Review Cloud’s Edge: The Ancient Texts IV
Remember Sifl and Olly? They had a show on MTV which ran from 1997 to 1999 called (appropriately enough) The Sifl & Olly Show. Now, thanks to the power of YouTube and Machinima, they're back with Sifl and Olly Video Game Reviews, and the latest episode (as of this...
My Thoughts on Nickelodeon’s TMNT Episode 1: Rise of the Turtles part 1
Here we are: The Nickelodeon era of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has officially begun... though I suppose if one counts IDW's comics, it began a year ago. But this being the cartoon show on a major cable network with a prominent toyline attached... one can bet this is...
D.C. Douglas’s Favorite “Chase” Moments from Transformers: Rescue Bots
One of my favorite cartoons to air over the past year has been Transformers: Rescue Bots, a branch of the Prime/War for Cybertron continuity which is admittedly a bit more kid-friendly. It's a fun show with some great characters which manages to do something new,...
VGDC to Make ‘Rise of the Mushroom Kingdom 5’ as Tribute to the Late Randy Solem
The past few days have been like something of an information exchange between myself and Tony Ponce over at Destructoid. Recently, in searching for something else, I came across an article he'd written late last year as a tribute/retrospective to Randy Solem's Video...
The Forgotten Super Mario World Commercial and What It Means to Me Now
It's a funny thing: When it comes to commercials for Super Mario World, in such instances that such a topic would come up, it seems the ones people remember are always either this one or that one. And while I do remember both well, the one which has always remained...
Have a Mario Christmas with Pepsi
Now here's an interesting piece GoNintendo linked to earlier today (sadly, the auction for it has ended, but I didn't have the $108 anyway). It's a store display sign from 1989, and if you're familiar with vintage video game commercials, you might remember the ad...
Awkward Spaceship Presents: Super Mario Bros. Bank
I felt like I just had to show this here, because... well, watch and see for yourself!
New Super Mario Bros. 2: Going for the Gold Again
At Nintendo's E3 2012 press conference, two new Mario games were shown off: New Super Mario Bros. U for Wii U and New Super Mario Bros. 2 for Nintendo 3DS. And make no mistake, I'm excited for both; New Super Mario Bros. U looks and is said to be bringing back some...
