890ArticleSegaFanaticI can relate to those nostalgic Christmas memories you have. Dec 06, 2013View
1350ArticleVaporman87I can recall the hours upon hours I spent collecting the images for the VHS Covers section of the site from VHS Wasteland (with the owner's permission, mind you) and having to sort out the really gruesome images from those that could safely be viewed here. I purposefully left out the horror section because they were just so horrific, some of them. That is a testament to the effectiveness of the VHS cover. As you said, you had only a few ways to attract a customer outside of giant ad campaigns and being viewed on thousands of movie screens. The thing is, after so many times renting that eye-catching film with the great VHS cover and being sorely disappointed with the actual film, you start to catch on. But apparently that didn't stop others from making the same mistake, because the market was FLOODED with cheap direct to video movies for SO LONG! But I really feel like the VHS cover was an art form unto itself. A really great cover could be all the difference between losing your hat or scoring big. The Lost Art of VHS BoxesOct 01, 2014View

5628ArticleJulieI can feel your passion for video games on this cute, well-written article. ❤ I love your charisma and cute enthusiasm, my perfect love @Benjanime. ❤❤ I had the cartridge with the first game only but I did play a bit of this one on emulators years ago and I absolutely agree with you: superior graphics with big sprites, beautiful stages and of course, an even more pleasant gaming experience. ❤ I'm glad you're a game lover (as I am). ;) The way you talk about the game makes me want to play it again. ❤ Super Mario Land 2: A Bigger SequelApr 12, 2022View
3125ArticleDirtyD79I broke my collarbone too when I was about 6. Me and some kid were wrestling in the playground and I hit it on a tree stump. I had to wear this one brace that looked like a really thick padded pair of suspenders and I hated it. That probably explains why I've always hated wearing suspenders. To me the worst part of having a broken collarbone was trying to get up whenever I was laying down or leaning back in a chair. Also me and the other kid couldn't lie about how it happened because our moms saw the whole thing. The Secret to How I Broke My CollarboneNov 18, 2015View
5376Article I bought those subtitled Sailor Moon VHS tapes at Suncoast! I wanted the episodes with Sailor Saturn that were never going to make it to this country. My dad just dug out that old VHS with the home-printed stickers on the side. Going to watch next weekend. What a great memory for a nerdy kid in the 90s.Making the anime nerd transitionFeb 01, 2021View
2471ArticlemassrealityI 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 ReviewAug 06, 2015View
4970ArticleblueluigiI bought a RetroN 5 a few years ago. I enjoyed it for a little bit, and it was great to be able to use it as a way to run translation patches for certain Japanese games. I played the original Fire Emblem on the RetroN 5 for a little bit, before my entire team was wiped out, and I was only left with Marth to fight with. Eventually, as I purchased the XRGB Framemeister, and started looking into other ways of getting RGB out of my old consoles, the novelty of the RetroN 5 began to wear off for me. As I tried the RetroN 5 again, I soon realized that using the system doesn't feel that much different than running an emulator on my computer, or even using a Raspberry Pi. And also, I find the emulation on the NES and SNES Classic to be much better than the RetroN 5's emulation. The RetroN 5 is good as a cheaper and simple way of running retro games on your HDTV. But me personally, I'm so over emulation based clone consoles that run on cartridges. To me, I don't find those to be nearly as satisfying, especially when the console doesn't actually run the games straight from the cartridge. I find that if I were to ever buy another clone console that runs cartridges, then I would rather go for a system on a chip, like the FPGA consoles that Analouge makes, as those actually recreate the original hardware, and is not emulation based like other clone consoles are.Retron 5 ReviewJul 19, 2019View
