Im going to have to get Mario Superstar Baseball now.

To the folks down near the coast who are getting nailed in the storm. We wish you guys the best.

Somethings are more important then games.

I was out of the office most of the day and the boys at Movie Thunder beat me to the punch, but I wanted to wish Pickle a Happy 25th Birthday.

It is funny to me that just because Sony managed to knock Nintendo off their high horse in the home console market that they think they will do the same thing in the handheld market. MCV is running a nice [url=http://www.mcvuk.com/newsitem.php?id=454]little piece[/url] that goes on about how Sony thinks competition with Nintendo is irrelevant. The PSP is about to launch in Europe and there is no doubt that Nintendo jerks around our European friends. I still wouldn’t go so far as to say that Nintendo is a non-issue. The Gameboy is no doubt the best selling line of platforms and has gone through the most maturing over the years. Sony must really think they are targetting a different crowd if they aren’t the least bit intimidated by that.
