| I'm still playing Dragon Warrior for the NES. I'm collecting items like Erdrick's Armor and Erdrick's Token. You have to be getting to the end. It drags a little around that part, but the end is in sight! It just has to be! I beat Battletoads & Double Dragon on the Sega Genesis this evening. Th... |

| Yep, it is official. I am getting promoted! Been working on a slow evolution of my current job for about six years now. Started off simple, but has moved onto more complex workings. Now, I am taking the next logical step up in my department and moving into a more serious position with a limited amou... |

Ugh, what horrible teams we have left in these playoffs. Repeats and a bunch of retreads of really annoying teams.
The only team that I have any interest in winning is the Penguins. I absolutely despise the Kings, Blackhawks and Bruins.
So, Go Crosby as the Penguins are now my rooting favorite. |

| I beat TMNT III: The Manhattan Project on the NES this evening. Overall, the game is a bit overlooked and I don't think people enjoy it as much as II and IV, but III plays so much better than II. II might be more iconic, but III is much smoother and not as unfair as II. Also, the differences in the... |

| This topic needs it's own topic, it's really interesting. Sooo very true. I never really thought about it until now, but there are some games that I enjoy more in different seasons. Final Fantasy X is a perfect summer game for me because of the atmosphere and the memories attuned to that game. I be... |

Plus, the prices of the Retro Market has slowly been rising along with the boomerangs of the SNES and eventually the N64/PS1 generations come into the markets ... |

And considering the dire straits the gaming industry has been in for a long time, I don't want to go all doom and gloom. But, my gawd! These new consoles look absolutely horrible!! I am just glad that I am not even close... |

I don't mind the level grinding due to my experiences with FF series, but the first DW is challenge even for me. It Gets Better! But, playing DW1 is a necessity.... |

| Playing Dragon Warrior on the NES. It's not a bad game, but it's definitely a grinder. Welcome To Dragon Warrior! :-D The first Dragon Warrior is a bit of a pain, but it is also the first console RPG. If you can remember that, then the game is much more enjoyable. It's like watching a new genre bei... |

I was talking to a Retro Game Store Owner as I was commenting his overflow of games. And he told me that if a game can't sell for $1.00 or even .50, then it cannot sell for... |
