Exactly, there's really no chance

Does your phone just change without warning you or do you have updating shut off?

Last night I got curious and discovered my brick DS still works

These are the same kinds of people who didn't see the impact of cars on the US either

At the time I watched I didn't expect it to seem relevant so quickly

Malice vs incompetence meets the Chinese good luck / bad luck proverb

I think I've mentioned this to or around you, this is for the searching passers by

I have the impression it was rushed to launch the console. They probably could have adjusted things in an international version but decided it wasn't worth the trouble.

When I visit Chicago again in 5 years and the car still has that painted on

I can't think of a single port of Joust I've tried that I'd call "bad," I could play the Atari version for hours

Anyway, the OG Street Fighter came out when I was 14 I think, Street Fighter II when I was nearly through high school, so there is no conventional fighter I think of as "grew up with"

If you haven't played either game, imagine if Bubble Bobble or Rodland let you kill each other

Joust is Balloon Fight before there was Balloon Fight if I'm remembering correctly.

You can PK your partner. The higher thing in a contact wins, dead even will bounce off each other as a tie, except the pterodactyl which is a "shot clock" to make sure you finish the stage.

Karate Champ was the only thing that existed before I was a teenager but I wish there was a high profile game to duplicate that kind of scoring instead of just "deplete your opponent's bar"

Do the pseudo-co-ops Mario Bros and Joust count?

The painters tape on the speaker is because volume on 1 is already too loud

And a couple of these things with smaller cards in them

I put a really big memory card in my old phone for this purpose, it otherwise just runs the musicolet in airplane mode and has no other job

Coming back to this to add that I had a run of collecting dumbwatches for a bit. Casio F91W is affordable, recognizable, and comes in all kinds of colors.

I was a Pebble user but my current phone won't sync with it anymore.
