Devil May Cry HD Collection - Buy It Now!

That's right! What was supposed to come out on April 3 2012, was released early in stores! Devil May Cry HD Collection has all 3 Devil May Cry games remastered in HD (Most of it anyways). I was lucky enough to snag the last copy at EBGames and will cherish this forever. I will finally pass Devil May Cry 3! BUY IT NOW!

Bubble Bath Babes - N8's Wanted List (parental advisory)

Back in the 1990's, Panesian released a trio of unlicensed games unlike any other Nintendo game before. Yes, Nintendo did have Mature Themed Games, but No there were not licensed. This was probably not a game mom and dad (well, maybe dad?) would have picked this up for you. I can only imagine owning this one... This is the story of Bubble Bath Babes. *mature subject matter ahead.

Hardcore Rules in Winnipeg CWE March 7 2012

The Innovator of Violence loose in Winnipeg. After their impressive 3rd anniversary show last january, CWE (Canada's Wrestling Ellite) followed it up with another entertaining slobber knocker "Explicit Content". The Innovator of Violence Tommy Dreamer and the one and only Million Dollar Man Ted Debiase joined the ranks of the CWE for an unforgettable night. It was cold in the streets of Winnipeg that night, but CWE burned the house down. P.S. I think we caught the BEST MATCH EVER on camera... Check THRIFT DWELLER TV.

Street Fighter X Tekken Special Edition - Reflections

Now no one can touch my money! We picked up the special edition for the Street Fighter X Tekken game for the PS3 recently . In addition to the game, the special edition comes with the exclusive comic prequel story, 36 more gems and a sweet Arcade Piggy bank, which I decided to put together for you. What do we think of the game now after 24 hours? Was the special edition worth it?

Street Fighter x Tekken = Heaven

It's a great game with great box art! We were out in full effect for the midnight release for Street Fighter x Tekken (SFXT) . A frustrating line system at the mall eventually led to a few happy nerds. Behold SFXT, the opening....

The wonders of emulation... SNES in HD and perfection.

Game Boy Color = Best Leap Day Ever!

It's what's cookin' for dinner! This was a nice way to end Leap Day Feb 29 2012. A "last of the month" trip to the thrift uncovered a SWEET Game Boy Color in box. Finally, something to play my SEALED Super Mario World 2 I found last year (too bad I will never open it!). Little did I know it wouldn't end there, as I found 2 more games hidden inside...
