Looking forward to making music with the Super MIDI Pak

I've been highly interested in this ‘Super MIDI Pak’ ever since the moment I heard of it's development. At first I really wanted one as a collector of Super Nintendo memorabelia, a strange music cartridge is right up my alley. A strange cartridge that only has a small production run and can be used for music. Now that is a brick right through my window.

That Advance Wars Reboot That is Coming Out One Day

Okay, since Advance Wars is delayed, again, I still have time to write this article, and then postpone it, because I wouldn't want to offend anybody in these troubling times.

Understandable from a cost perspective, but drab and boring if you actually plan on convincing people to want to have multiple toy lamps in their home…

Yoshi's Story's commercial is dripping with attitude

This is a commercial for 1998 N64 release Yoshi's Story, the most maligned of many maligned sequels to the classic Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. This is also smack dab in the middle of the 'Get 'N' or Get Out!' campaign.
