I'm with a lot of these guys. I used to own dozens of systems and games, and then realized that they took up tons of space, and worse, have no value. Games are terrible at keeping value, with exception to a few holy grails. I sometimes wish I still had my turboduo, but with the VC that feeling is much less now. TG16 is by far my favorite system, and it is so much more conveinant to fire up the wii to play than drag out an old console and cartridges. The selection so far is improving. As far as TG16, almost everything I like is there (except Rondo go figure). As for NES and SNES though, there's a lot I am waiting for.

I used Dosbox to replay some Eye of the Beholder games. I did the whole multiple computer network thing for a bit and then decided that I was making life too complicated for myself. I just run the one now, and emus. But the bright side is that maybe if you bought 50 bucks worth of PI processors, you might get enough gold from them to make a few bucks.

As long as it is relevant. Somehow I think a Viagra ad or something will pop up. Or, in the middle of battle, a billboard for the new 2008 Chevy Malibu. Brothers in Arms: Gatorade Edition!

I had Nintendo Power from issue #1, and was an EGM fan from 92 and up, before the 1up and suckage started. It's funny how many of these old mags are helpful with today's Wii VC releases. A lot of the maps and info are not found online anywhere.

My brother sent in an envelope to EGM that was published. I can't remember what issue it was in. It was an artwork of chicken mcnuggets made to be SFII and MK characters. I'm thinking it was a 1993 issue (I can't remember when MK hit arcades). Anyhoo, if anyone runs across it, lemme know what issue you saw it in. I keep looking but can't find it!
