I don't even think I've ever used a news feed.

I've never played Oil's Well, but I've heard of the name.

I never played Anteater in the arcade, but I did play Anteater when I had MAME on my computer in college.  I felt sorry for that anteater.

I purposely deleted MAME from my computer when I was in college because I was afraid I wouldn't study with all those arcade games at my fingertips.  I haven't done emulators since then either!

You know, even though Nintendo and everyone else says that Game & Watch was super popular back in the day, I don't remember seeing them at all in the early 80s.  The first time I saw Game & Watches were AFTER the NES came out.  And then I only remember seeing like, four of them.  I remember a Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros., Zelda, and a Mickey Mouse one.  And that's it.  I just don't think stores in my area carried them back in the early part of the 80s. Really the ones I remember more were the Coleco mini arcade cabinets (I had the Pac-Man one), and the Tiger Electronics LCD games.

But yeah, the Game & Watch Gallery titles they did later are REALLY good.  I wish they still made them.  It's neat that TOSE made them for Nintendo, they're a neat company that has done a lot of games in the background.  Look them up.  One thing I don't like about WarioWare is that after the first WarioWare game was made, they kind of stopped making the Game & Watch Galleries, as WarioWare is just Game & Watch on crack.

Yeah I never played that game either until on Taito Legends.  I imagine it was just a by-product of the popularity of Space Invaders.

To this day, 1943 is one of my all time favorite shooters.

Yeah the controls were not as good on the NES version, but otherwise it was a pretty good port.  Did you know Rare programmed the NES version?  It's just a testament to how much I liked Marble Madness if I had the NES version.

I reviewed both Koronipa games on the Wii.  Hudson made those games, may they rest in peace.

I had an Apple II PC as well as a kid back then!  It was our first home computer and my first 'game console' as well.  

I LOVED Marble Madness!  I even had the NES version.

I also liked Gauntlet, but I didn't play it as much in arcades because usually the bigger kids hogged it.

Hooray for Chocobos!  You ever wonder if Big Bird is a Chocobo?

When I wear my Mega Man shirt, I get a lot of compliments about it from guys, "Cool shirt, man!"  When I wear my Kingdom Hearts shirt, I get a lot of compliments from ladies, I've noticed.

Borderlands 3 was pretty big at PAX.  I got a mask at their booth that I gave to my brother Jeff.  Gearbox makes those games, right?  That company is just a couple of miles from my house.

So out of curiosity, do you remember any games that I've reviewed that saved you from buying them?

Of course I would name my pet moose Bullwinkle.  What else would you name a moose?  I'm not sure a moose would like the Texas heat, though.
