Well we all knew it was a foregone conclusion, but the SNES Classic was officially announced today. Dynamite line-up with a few pleasant surprises (Star Fox 2! Kirby's Dream Course!). It costs another bill, but considering the second controller is thrown in this time, and the line-up of games (Earthbound, Final Fantasy III/VI, Legend of the Seven Stars) it's a much better bang for your buck. I guess I'm gonna be camping outside Best Buy on the night of September 28th....

Let me get this straight, you are on episode 2 of Phantom Blood (the first arc) and you're already loving it. Oh, Axel my dear boy, have a fucking seat!

So I actually went to this. Friend and I were driving around town looking for something to do for our last night in LA. She got a random text about it and we made it to city hall about 20 minutes before it started. Incredible energy and SOOO many people. It was awesome to be there. Also, the mayor of LA seems like a really cool guy!!

I couldn't but my finger on why Mario's new ability rubbed me the wrong way, then I saw this:

Fucking fantastic! I can't wait!!

So this campaign is stalling out pretty hard. Only 10 days left and they're only about 18% of the way to their goal.

Um, Capcom? Why no Mega Man and Bass?

I hope that leaked list is bogus. Not enough characters overall and too many hold overs from UMVC3.

Neither of these places were on the list, but here's a few great burger places I ate at in my recent travels: When I was in Atlanta earlier this year I ate at a local chain called Grindhouse Killer Burgers. It was pretty awesome. Had a 'Yankee Style' burger, which had thick cut bacon, bleu cheese and grilled onions, along with a local craft beer and a side of sweet potato kettle chips. Then, when I was at a conference earlier this month, I ate at the Abby Burger Bistro, a local chain in Baltimore. They had a bunch of wild house burgers and the most extensive build-a-burger options I've ever seen! Ostrich burger with peanut butter on a English muffin? Coming right up! Alligator patty on a brioche bun topped with fried green tomatoes and peach salsa? Right away! Plus they have a list of special 'meats of the month' that are even more exotic/bizarre. One of the specials while I was there was New Zealand Reindeer (I chickened out cause I had NO idea what to top that with)! Ended up getting a bison patty with avocado and bacon, topped with buffalo sauce and bleu cheese chunks on a toasted pretzel bun with waffle fries. Bliss. I'm looking for any excuse to go back to Baltimore just so I can go there again!

I know someone who would like to discuss this with you Come a little closer. Closer still.....

Man, I miss Clone High...

March 30th? As in two month ago?

They said he was found with something around his neck. I wonder if it was another case of auto-erotic asphyxiation....

Yes, but we are also technically responsible for Mighty No. 9, so let's not point fingers just yet....

The original is one of my favorite games of all time, so when this kickstarter came up it was a dream come true. I couldn't throw money at it fast enough.

Someone must have heard you. They pulled the Stretch Goals and are currently reworking them specifically to re-prioritize the Switch stretch goal.

Sonic Forces: DO NOT STEAL

What. Have. They. Done.

Fuuuuuuuuck. Keiichi Yano AND Masaya Matsuura Rhythm game kickstarter?? Parappa is classic, but I looooooved Gitaroo Man back in the day. Man, I wanna throw in, but I feel like I need to atone for helping bring Mighty No. 9 into the world. I backed both Bloodstained and TJ&E: Back in the Groove (my DREAM) and they both look promising, but who knows what the final product will be like. I didn't back Yooka-Laylee but I've heard mixed things....

This game has Lego Spider-man 2099.

I know they've been all over the place with actually getting stuff out, but iam8bit has a 4 LP vinyl set up for preorder, and a Deluxe 6 LP set with the complete OST.

Nemo, there is a great feature on Bleak House on the Criterion Bluray of Cronos.

Shouldn't this be titled Ralph Wrecks the Internet??

Nick's a little late to the party. Where were we talking about this doh?
