I was a Nintendo fanboy until the Wii, when I owned 0 systems in that gen.

Unless you're giving other people shit for no reason, the term fanboy doesn't apply. You're just a fan.

I have heard nothing about that. 

Interesting premise, for sure. 

I think you're selling yourself short. 1) there's a lot of transplanting to and from Texas and California, so while the cultures are vastly different, i doubt you'd all hate each other and 2) college is by no means the only way to open your mind and learn to socialize. 

I'm sure you learned plenty about how the world operates working retail, and as an academic myself, not all of us are acting high and mighty all the time the way certain media would have you believe.

Makes me hungry, looks like a great trip. Love Kim. Reminded me of Bebop and i might make that my alarm for tomorrow.

We shared, I just wasn't allowed to play M- rated. There were the occassional disputes though. I remember getting mad that my brother was playing Duke Nukem on my N64 and saying I couldn't watch ... In our bedroom. 

And I am down with all of your list. Loved NES/SNES.

Xbox definitely sold more, but it didn't destroy the GCN in U.S. 24 million vs 21 million is a popular vote difference of notability, but i wouldn't call it a console sale landslide necessarily. It is true that Nintendo wasn't mentioned in pop culture as much as the other two though, and I believe you that that happened.

Also, the EGM cover about GCN vs XBOX made it real to ME, Julian.

How did you come into all these games?

Please don't tell me PSN has a sale. I just got clean!
