I prescribe a swift butt kicking once a day or as often as needed.

DK '94 is one of my very favorite Game Boy games and can stand toe-to-toe with any action or puzzle platformer. I really liked Mario vs Donkey Kong too and I wish they'd revisit the concept. All of its sequels, though I'm sure they're fun, have taken control of Mario away from you. Come on, Nintendo, next year give us DK '14!

All right, another Double Fine game to add to my collection 

No worries, man  It's crazy some of the things that are out there now to play old games with, though I think the FC Twin is something of an old standby at this point. But the other day I was in Toys R Us looking for Christmas gifts for nieces and nephews and I saw this Genesis rip off with wireless controllers, 80 pre-installed games, and a cartridge slot. What really surprised me, though, is that the box said it was licensed by Sega! I don't see how that would make them any money but I can't help but wonder if the thing actually works well.

I got it for...the library. Hey, it was 2011, there were tons of great games lol. I really wanted to play Uncharted 2 though. That was probably at the top of my list.

Wow, that makes a lot of sense. I could totally see that happening. Like I've said before, I'm not feeling any game fatigue from the current generation but I didn't jump onto the HD console bandwagon till they were more than halfway through their life cycles anyway. We'll just have to wait and see how Nintendo plays it. They don't always seem to do the most logical things lol but this theory sounds plausible.

Wow, I'm surprised you don't actually have an SNES right now. That gets my vote!

Me too! It's actually from one of the (many) OCR albums I've never listened to all the way through: Essence of Lime.

Retro Magazine? Funding goal? This tickles some forgotten memory in the back of my mind. 

***quick internet research***

Oh wow, that sounds cool. I just might sign up for that 

I know, right? It's a great homage to all that classic old music.
