@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

Sorry to pull this out of it's grave.  But I find this interesting that only 2 years ago the US version of Magical Chase was "only a bit more" haha.  I guess now the JP version is a steal eh?

Quote from: nat on 05/10/2008, 03:45 PMThe Japanese version (both of them) of this game is really a big, giant rip-off. You end up paying $120-$140 for a version of the game that is markably inferior to the US counterpart. If you have a good eye and a little patience you can pick up the US version of the game for as little as $25 more.

On a game like Magical Chase, when you're going to be spending over $100 either way, it's definitely worth your while to spring for the slightly more costly US release.

Interesting, but I am pretty happy with my Super Gameboy.

Good luck on the sale, I wouldn't mind that Shining Force CD.  I don't think you are supposed to include a CD-R into any sale, whether it's free or not.  But I'm sure you won't get too much flack for it.

Nope, no polar bears there.  Lots of moose though. 

I pretty much thought the same thing when we moved there, but I was pleasantly surprised at all of the video game arcades.  Specifically the Space Station - wow.  Have yet to still see one as good as that place, ANYWHERE.

Almost 300,000 people live there, so they have pretty much everything everyone else has.  And when it comes to tech they are always up on it.

Anchorage was the first town of considerable size to have a fiber optic ring around it.

Good luck.

I had the Sega channel for several months in Anchorage, Alaska of all places.  I loved it.  A LOT.

Sounds like you were around the wrong people period, whether they smoked pot or not.  I'm sure the pot was not a determining factor with the way they acted.  It's probably just the way they WERE.

I thought Amsterdam was a city, not a country?

Oh yeah, Euro Trip!  Haha, awesome movie.

As far as people running around high as a kite and shooting everyone, only in Reefer Madness.  Or they were high on something else. . hehe.  Cause if they were smokin' teh buds, they'd be at home chillin' with not a worry on their minds.   :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Responsible smokers throw their butts out the window, to keep their ash trays clean of course.  Don't want a yellow ash tray.

I just picked up 7 N64 games at a garage sale for 1 buck a piece.  Some of the titles were 007, Smash Bros., Super Mario Bros 64, Mortal Kombat Trilogy, and some others.  Not sure if they are worth much more than that really...  heh.

The Game Crazys around here have/had 40% off brand new games, I thought that was a smokin' deal, not sure if they have any left around here anymore, might want to check your area for any closing Game Crazy stores.

It seems as though lately, everywhere I turn, there is mention of marijuana.  Whether it be polls, television shows, laws, busts, etc etc.  It seems like there is a movement happening.  One that's been going on for a long time now, but has become pretty strong as of late.  Personally I think they should just cut the crap and legalize it in all 50 states and  just get it over with, because with the way things are going it's going to happen sooner or later anyways.  Besides, like many other issues with this country, it's unconstitutional to criminalize it.  And sorry, but making it legal with "tax stamps" doesn't cut it especially since they were never available to begin with.

No, sitting around on our fat asses, doing nothing, eating too much, and not exercising is probably what's making us fat.  Not probably, it IS what's making us a bunch of fatties.

Quote from: oldskool on 04/08/2010, 06:57 PMI don't think a 77 foot asteroid would do too much damage, especially if it hit the water.
You underestimate the power of asteroids. The one that killed the dinosaurs (and virtually everything else on earth larger than a rat) was only 6 miles in diameter. (and hit water; specifically, the gulf of Mexico.) 77 feet is about 1/400th that size, but 1/400th of the end of the world is still pretty fucking scary.
I don't underestimate the power of an asteroid.  I know how much damage that they can do.  But 77 feet compared to 31,680 feet is quite a difference.  So yeah sure, a 77 foot asteroid is gonna kick up some dust, and possibly fuck some shit up - but odds are that it will land in water. 

Now, I didn't realize that the great asteroid landed in the Gulf Of Mexico, but I've heard of that before.  I wonder how that covered the Earth in a shroud of darkness, maybe it hit a shallow spot, I dunno.

Quote from: turbo D on 04/06/2010, 11:35 PMThis is just war. I am not justifying what happened, but I am not surprised that it did. This kind of thing is to be expected. American civilians in Iraq have also been wrongfully slaughtered (e.g. journalists, tourists, etc.). If anything, everyone should be against the war, not this incident alone.
I am against the incident, and the war.  But that's just my personal opinion.  Everyone has a right to an opinion.  And some people's opinion is that we should be there doing what we are doing. 

Then there is always the "what does the government know that we don't?" which could explain everything.  Or not.

Interesting debate here guys, but let's try not to make any personal shots at each other.

Here is an interesting perspective of things - many of you may have already watched it, for those that have not, take the time to watch through it.  It's quite a conversational and controversial piece.

Zeitgeist - The Movie

Second Zeitgeist is a very interesting perspective of money and the government, and a new better alternate society.

Zeitgeist: Addendum

Check out this guy, he has an interesting way to explain his emotions.   :shock:

#82
I think the tank running over an already dead guy was a bit uncalled for as well, that's just rediculous.  Also, the guys in the van with the kids trying to pick up a survivor - were they a threat?

Mega Turrican is definfinitely not garbage.  That game is solid, and the music is awesome too.

Yup, I can verify that he does this.  Either that or String Cheese, or some other type of granola bars. Hehe.  Oh and Kool-Aid
#86
Looks awesome, if they finally release it I am gonna get it.  I like Turrican style games, and that reminds me of one.  The graphics/animation look solid..  the music..  at times seems ok, other times seems obnoxious, but that could be poor video quality also.  It might actually sound good on a decent set up..  (not being recorded on a projector)
