| 2473 | Article | onipar | Good review! I've only recently purchased a Gamecube, and while I've enjoyed some games, I have to say, the inability to change the inverted axis for games like this one and Luigi's Mansion ruins the games for me. It's my own damn fault for not being able to adapt, but I just can't seem to get the hang of it, and so end up having to stop playing those games. Which of course is the pits. | Aug 06, 2015 |  | |
| 2472 | Article | Benjanime | with a virtual console release they'd have to force using the gamecube controller. when shooting water there were two different uses with the shoulder button, holding it slightly would let mario run around while shooting water, while completely holding the button down would have mario shooting water while standing in place and aiming. | Article Classic: Super Mario Sunshine Review | Aug 06, 2015 | |
| 2471 | Article | massreality | I bought Super Mario Sunshine and played maybe five minutes of it. I regret not spending the time to truly see what the game brought to the table. I wish they'd released a Virtual Console version of it. I'd love to give it another go. I also have to second Benjamime with the Mario Galaxy recommendations. Man, those games are amazing. They never get old. | Article Classic: Super Mario Sunshine Review | Aug 06, 2015 | |
| 2470 | Article | massreality | Beavis and Butthead and Singled Out defined my pre-teen years. Man, do I miss that time. I also have some extreme nostalgia for MTV Spring Break Out. I looked forward to that every single year. | MTV: The 90's | Aug 06, 2015 | |
| 2469 | Article | massreality | The Karate Kid and JCVD inspired me at a very young age to take up martial arts. I started in Tae Kwon Do and really loved it. My mom decided to start taking alongside me since she had to sit through the classes anyway. It sort of became an obsession for her, and we started going every single night until I finally just refused to go anymore. She ended up getting a job with the school and fifteen years later, she opened up her own school that she still operates to this day. As an adult, I took Krav Maga for a couple years, but after a few injuries I decided it truly wasn't worth it. It's a lot cheaper and easier to go take a conceal carry class and buy a cheap handgun. :) | The Karate Class Kid | Aug 06, 2015 | |
| 2468 | Article | munkysrench | Yeah I remember that. (Our stepdad) Tim was PISSED! Oh yeah, remember in that cul-de-sac picture where the basketball hoop was? I played many a game of street basketball there.. | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Aug 06, 2015 | |
| 2467 | Article | Vaporman87 | Awww man! Seeing the figures on the back of that Secret Wars Spidey card back brings back my despair over not owning Hobgoblin, Baron Zemo or Falcon! I did own both Spidey versions, Cap, Doc Ock, and the others. In fact, I still own them as well as Doctor Doom's fortress thingy. I also owned (but no longer own) one or two of the vehicles. Was it just me, or were Doc Ock's tentacles prone to breaking off? All of mine broke off in play, and what is a Doc Ock with no "Ock"? Just a "Doc", and that's lame. My favorite was, of course, Iron Man. The whole Secret Wars comic storyline and toy line were huge in my youth. I played with them a great deal... more so than any other superhero toy line. They got their fair share of playtime amidst He-Man, Thundercats, GI Joe, and Transformers, and that's quite a feat. | Spider-Man & Venom Action Figure Retrospective | Aug 05, 2015 | |
| 2466 | Article | Vaporman87 | For shame! LOL Oh we've all been there, haven't we? Frustrated by losing when the game (any game) was firmly within our grasp. With board gaming, the opportunity to "gently swing things into your favor" was oh so enticing. I KNOW I tried my hand at it more than once, usually failing. Sometimes you can invent a new rule to favor you, knowing that the instruction manual had been safely thrown away years ago. "But that's how WE always played..." was a common phrase. LOL This reminded me of a recent visit with friends during which one of their daughters joined me and my daughter in a game of UNO. I had played UNO for decades, so when she began coming up with one rule after another to favor her hand, and she would play cards then take them back, I knew she was a compulsive cheater who was awful at actually executing the cheat. What is wrong with kids these days? They can't even cheat right! | Cheatin' | Aug 05, 2015 | |
| 2464 | Article | Vaporman87 | Funny how the companionship of a dog can make a kid feel so much more confidence and peace. Like they were made to compliment each other. Unless you ask my middle son. He's scared to death of even the tiniest dog. Losing a beloved pet in your youth is rough. It leaves an empty space in you that you can remember forever. I can still feel the distress of knowing my dog, Susie, was being given to my uncle because my mom and dad had divorced, and she was moving and did not want the dog. Neither did my dad. I felt a bit betrayed. But yes, gaming can make you forget your worries for while. A much better alternative than alcohol or meds. You can enter another world and live there for a time, forgetting that OTHER life and the issues you're dealing with. Doing that as a kid creates a lasting memory of how you coped. One I'm glad you shared vkimo! | Summer of Sheeba | Aug 05, 2015 | |
| 2463 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @OldSchool80s Good call! I always associated the standard 4 color pens with my older brother who actually carried them in a pocket protector (he was going to college to be an electrical engineer). But I remember at one point owning a huge shiny purple one that had like 10 colors, which was crazy. | Retro School Supplies | Aug 05, 2015 | |
