Hey, hey, hey it's almost Halloween! You know what that means? It means nothing actually. I'm far too old to be going around the neighborhood in costume to get candy. Though it is a frightening possibility that I easily could. And also I will most likely end up working that day. So even giving away candy to kids is out of the realm of possibility for me. Anyways horror games are some of the most unique experiences in our interactive medium today. 

So, I have been away and unfortunately I missed my oppurtunity to talk about Nintendo's spectacular 125th Anniversary. That's right Nintendo has gone from small trading card and toy company to a worldwide video game juggernaut. This my friends is an amazing feat. Through all the troubled times Nintendo has kept going for a century and a quarter. And I know that as a fan (often called a fanboy) I have to say Nintendo....Don't change a thing.

So I've been eerily quiet in the months away. I think it's because I work 6 days a week for 12 hour days sometimes....nah...that's not it lol Anyways first I want to congratulate XDarthKillX...for the inquiry in getting a  free club Nintendo gold game from me since I didn't have a use for it...hopefully it worked out for you.

Okay so as you all know Club Nintendo had their platinum/gold rewards and I received Gold. However, none of the games they are offering interest me...or I have them on VC...and I don't have a 3DS...even if I had gotten platinum this year I already own Game & Wario, Earthbound, and the NES Remix.

So like last year I decided once again to express my thoughts on E3. Again I'll look at Nintendo because well...it's in my user name (say what!? And here I thought I liked Microsoft!) Anyways I really liked some of the announcements and others...well we'll get into that. But for now here is a list of pros and cons

It wasn't so long ago that I thought to myself that I had outgrown Mario Kart. Perhaps it had gone stale for me, perhaps Sonic Racing gave me something it hadn't...whatever the case I was ready to write off the series. But something strange happened...Nintendo suckered me in...get a free game with your purchase they advertised...and I'm not going to pass up a deal like that...the cheapskate I am.

As you may or may not know...I'm a bit of a review buff. I love to take a critical eye to games with my opinion because much like many people I feel I need to give feedback towards a product I purchased. However, this isn't about my sense of professionalism. I'm no professional writer and I'm a pretty bad editor...but I do know what's wrong and I do know what's bad.

The day has finally come. No it's not the end of days and no it's not a holiday (Unless you all want to celebrate my birthday as one lol) No today is the day the Wii is finally dead. Now you may be saying, "but Jon Nintendo kicked that bucket aside when the Wii U was announced." And you would be correct. However, some games did in fact come out. Pandora's Tower made it's way stateside when the Wii U was out and that was a big deal for project rainfall fans. Granted XSeed screwed up and many people encountered game breaking bugs and glitches in the final tower, but regardless we got the game which is better than not at all.

Well, well, well...I have seemingly vanished like someone who seems to be very busy in real life.And you would be correct. Life has taken me for a real ride, but I have good news that I am in fact alive and kickin'. I even bought more games for my Wii U! And even better is Mario Kart 8 is coming soon! I know I'm excited.So now my Wii U games list includes Batman Arkham City: Armored Edition, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge, Rayman Legends, Resident Evil Revelations, Super Mario 3D World, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Black List, and Warriors Orochi 3.

Well it's my last blog for BaD. I already did my reflection so unfortunately I can't do another one (OR CAN I!?) Since it's the last day of BaD here is what I learned in 2013 and beyond....
