For my birthday I got a Kirby Switch controller. I wonder if it'll work on my Switch 2?

I wish my dad would remember how he got them. But that was over 40 years ago so I doubt he would remember. Oh well. I don't even think I knew what a demo game was anyway. All I knew I was getting games to play.
Yeah but the games on these disks were not demos, they were the full games. So I don't really know if they were pirated or not. It wasn't something I thought about back then as a little kid. And I bet my dad didn't think of it either. I remember the shareware scene on later computers, though. That's how I was introduced to games like Jazz Jackrabbit, Christmas Lemmings, Tyrian, and more!
The latest batch of amiibo prices are ridiculous. I'm going to have to really be selective on my Nintendo purchases in the future. I'm already NOT getting the DLC for DK Bananza and I'm on the fence on the Mario Galaxy collection.
I think LIttle Nemo: The Dream Master came out in 1990. That was an awesome NES game!
I used to say that the 90s sucked and the 80s was way better, but lately I'm starting to thnk the 90s weren't so bad. There were awesome consoles like the SNES and PSOne and great cartoons like Animaniacs.
I was only able to read the instructions for it because the Activision Anthology collection has scanned manuals for all the games.
Nintendo annouced so many more amiibo in today's Direct video. My wallet is crying.
You know I wrote about those Pac-Man donuts a while back:

I like that tractor at the start of your video. I dunno, I just like tractors.
I never knew about the Bally console as a kid. I don't even remember seeing Wizard of Wor in arcades as a kid. I only started learning about those things after college when I would go to arcade auctions and read about things on the internet. Too bad the console game doesn't have those great Wizard of Wor voice clips!
I really miss going to conventions like E3 and PAX.
Arkanoid was one of the first games I got for my NES because it was a game I could get my dad to play and I thought the included paddle controller was cool.
I think I'm already on your Switch friend list. I'd love to play Fantasy Life if I didn't have to work and sleep and play other games.
