So, that factory-sealed Super Mario Bros. 2 auction I was watching ended, and damn. $155? Not bad. LBD "Nytetrayn"

Grand Finale?

So, some of you out there may be familiar with a little series of Flash movies simply titled "Mario Bros." Bowser makes plans to kidnap the Princess, Luigi dies in the initial strike, dramatic music, sprites from the first Super Mario Bros.... if you need a refresher,...

Is Konami Listening?

Posted for the benefit of Toastyfrog and any other Castlevania fans reading this. A little Flash movie titled" Castlevania Online. Gotta admit, the idea's got some merit. LBD "Nytetrayn"

Useless(But Fun) Trivia

I love reading Wikipedia. I find out so much useless(along with the occassional useful) trivia. For instance, did you know that in the old TMNT cartoon, Casey Jones was played by Pat Fraley? Ok, that's nothing, in itself. But more recently, he also played Shy Guy in...

PS Pondering

Sony says that the XBox 360 is a "transitional product," while the PS3 is made to last "for many years to come." This intrigues me. Does this mean to imply that whereas the 360 will be obsolete in roughly five years, that the PS3 will still be Sony's entry into the...

Read a few interesting bits while out today…

One being a rumor in EGM that Guitar Hero II may have the Mega Man theme included, among other "classic" tracks. Would certainly be interesting. In Play, they did a bunch of interviews, including Inafune. It was mostly about his new games, though a question came up, I...

Ha-RUMPH!

Since they haven't put out a new Rad Racer, Ehrgeiz, Bushido Blade, or Illusion of Gaia in forever and a decade, I can gleefully say that I don't feel the least bit conflicted in calling Square-Enix cheesef***ing assmonkeys. LBD "Nytetrayn"

Metroidvanias

Toastyfrog is in the process of creating his own game, and in this process, he has been exploring the free-roaming 2-D exploration-type genre, often simplified as "Metroidvania" type games, as of late. To that end, he has begun a new series(?) of pieces looking back...

His Eyes Are Upon You

Wow, I'm so conflicted about Left Behind, Christian game with more spyware than a James Bond flick. "Even the consistently cranky crack-pot, Jack Thompson, has come out in opposition of the game due to game elements like goat-footed demons emerging from UN...

Happy (belated) Birthday, Sonic!

The Top Hog turned 15 yesterday. Here's to 15 more. ...and Sonic 1 for the GBA? Nift. Probably be better if it were a nice Sonic 3 & Knuckles game, maybe with Sonic 2, but no complaints. If you're into the GameTap scene, then they're running a sort of Sonic Special...

Would you buy a used game from these gentlemen? I didn't think so. LBD "Nytetrayn"

No Kidding

Toastyfrog doesn't like Alex Kidd. Me, I think he needs some slight reinvention. Sort of like Kid Icarus, but not. This piece does bring up an interesting point, though. A lot of the blame heaped on Nintendo from back in the day is because they contractually kept...
