1248Happy St. Patty's DayHigh school kids. God help them.Mr MagicMar 20, 2013View
1247Retro Randomness<p><font color="#000000">Here I am presenting a few bits on the 1st issue of the '94 season of Nintendo Power.</font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000">For this issue, the publishers added a foil cover over the actual cover, featuring Mega Man X for the Super NES.</font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000"><img src="/images/postImages/NPower94 Issue 1 march192013.jpg"></font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000"><img src="/images/postImages/NPower94 Issue 1 march192013 3.jpg"></font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000">This issue is packed with some nice breakdowns of games like Mega Man X, Flashback, Claymates, and others.</font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000">One of the more interesting spots in this issue was a small feature on games that were not published in North America, but were in Japan.</font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000">These titles included one called "U.S. Presidential Election". Why Japanese people would be so enamoured with our election process as to purchase 65,000 copies of the Famicom game are beyond me.</font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000"><img src="/images/postImages/NPower94 Issue 1 march192013 4.jpg"></font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000">As you can see, the game is chock full of candidates from the 1988 campaign (albeit with slightly manipulated names; George Push and Jesse Zeckson for example). Simply... odd.</font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000">Beyond this, we have another title in Japan only called "Bar Code Battle". </font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000"><img src="/images/postImages/NPower94 Issue 1 march192013 5.jpg"></font></p><p><font color="#000000"></font> </p><p><font color="#000000">I can only label this as just - beyond words. The pack comes with the "Bar Code Boy", an attachment for your GameBoy that allows you to scan bar codes on special cards that contain information on the creature you will use in a monster/fighter/RPG style game. Reminds me a great deal of Pokemon. I wonder how much the "Bar Code Boy" is going for on Ebay?</font></p>Vaporman87Mar 19, 2013View
1246Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie I saw this movie in theaters when i was 8 about 5 times and it rocked, i had the poster, t-shirt, comic adaptation and all that. This movie is based more on the comics, did you know it was a comic before a cartoon?HarryCanyonMar 19, 2013View

1242Happy St. Patty's DayThe same thing happened at my high school. I never understood it. And, typically, the pinch was not just a pinch. It was an attempt to tear the flesh from the muscle. Vaporman87Mar 19, 2013View
1241A funny image on 80s fashionVery true Vkimo. Who wants to go to an 80's party dressed like Emilio Estevez in The Breakfast Club? Not too many people are going to be impressed, or even recognize that you made an effort.Vaporman87Mar 19, 2013View
1240A funny image on 80s fashionI think people choose that look because it's the easiest to replicate and through stereotyping best "represents" the 80s. Because I'm sure 80's and contemporary style in general wasn't that much different. If you're going to an 80s theme party, you want to look outlandishly 80s. Wearing a typical 80s outfit just doesn't cut it. vkimoMar 19, 2013View
