My Zen Stone Plus MP3 player died on me a couple of weeks ago (wouldn’t hold a charge anymore) so I had to go search for a new one. Most people go to Apple when they want an MP3 player – however I stayed on a different route and picked up the horribly named Coby [...]

I have spent some time on finding the right icon and picture for me to use across all the social networks that I am apart of. Some people might thing it is silly to spend any time on this, however I think it is important to use a graphic that people can easily associate with [...]

About a week ago, I picked up the FC Twin. Now, what is it? In a nutshell it plays both old classic NES and SNES games. I have a good collection of old Super Nintendo games to play, and I picked up a few more old Nintendo games on eBay to check it out. Overall, [...]

I might be a little late with this, as many posts about it are from a few years back – however I just made a couple of neat boxes for both Wii Sports and Link’s Crossbow Training. What, these games didn’t come with boxes? No. We got cardboard sleeves to keep them in – which [...]

Got my new toy in yesterday, a PS3. Don’t worry Wii – I won’t forget about you either.
Overall, I like it thus far – it is the 80 GB version, and was easy to setup and mess with. Thus far, I think the Wii has a better store (or at least classic games).
Damn [...]

Looking through some of my past registered games on Nintendo’s web site, I figured – why not post my thoughts about some of my favorites and not so favorite purchases? Today I’ll tell you about a game that probably needs no introduction, Super Mario 64. Back in the day, I could play this game [...]

Resolved! via Reese in the Comments…
I think you have engaged in a classic example of overthink. URLs are resolved right -to-left. In other words, xyz.com.com is requesting the subdomain xyz of “com” of the .com TLD. If you pop com.com into WHOIS you will likely discover it too is owned by cNet.

The most recent WiiWare game I have downloaded for my Wii is CueSports – Pool Revolution.
Now true, some of the WiiWare games have been disappointments, and others have been jewels in the ruff – so downloading anything is sort of like a crap shoot. However, I have to say CueSports – Pool Revolution [...]

This year, I set a new record for myself – I made it into print four times! Now in this digital era, that might not seem like much. Heck, it might even be a step backwards. However, holding a magazine with an article you have written inside it still something that gets me all excited.
