Aside from conventions like PAX, I think anyone who lived outside of Japan was out of luck 

I'm sure if you emulated on your computer, you could still get all the extra stuff. The internet, that's gaming's preservation institute lol

I haven't played any DQ game yet but from what I hear, IX is as good a place to start as any. The DS remake of IV is super expensive now too 

I can't imagine too many people are using those services anymore but it's still sad to see them go, especially for the DS. I think that one was a little better implemented and used.

The thing that ruined Diddy Kong Racing for me was that you couldn't really beat it unless you collected everything. I finally got to Wiz Pig and beat him, which was really hard, and then afterwards he just showed back up and chased us all away because I hadn't collected all the doodads. Left a sour taste in my mouth. Technically, though, it's a very solid racer.

I still quote Clayfighter 63 1/3 too. Tons of great one liners 

I think you should stick with the green column. The Forgetter is actually a stick of celery! EPIC PLOT TWIST!

I need to watch Twin Peaks.

Indeed!

It's the trumpets, I think, that remind me of "Raindrops." Good stuff, though, however you look at it.

It worked! Blessings upon you, Bullet656!

Dang you, Sony!
