Of course there was. It was Vader with Luke's face.

Not to mention tarring the people because they disagree with a game they're playing. "Why are you playing Halo? You support the terribleness of Bungie? You support the terribleness of Microsoft?"

"Dude, it's a fun game."

Looks like #AEWWrestledream went about, what, four and a half hours? Five?

But it packed in all sorts of moments for the fans. Especially the main event.

Watching more of it tomorrow but the end definitely left a lasting impression.

BTW, yes, I like wrestling. So let's talk body slams.

This takes me back.

Outside of the Digital Pictures glut, Sega CD had some great games.

Extremely rare b-roll footage of an Electronics Boutique in late 1994 or early 1995. Enjoy it!

I found this among 40TB of files from Digital Pictures' archive.

I like the cut of your jib. Tecmo Super Bowl was huge at the time.

The Nintendo Entertainment System and the original Super Mario Bros. debuted in the U.S. 40 years ago today.

Anyone got any favorite NES memories? I of course have to stick to my Battletoads guns. And Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! and Super Mario Bros. 3.

I live a good discussion of pros and cons. But when one side insists that everything sucks and won’t justify the argument…ugh.

The fact there’s still heavy demand for Wii Sports is insane.

Guess some people really love bowling.
