Gaming Bits: Game Boy Color, A handheld blinded in nostalgia or a gemof our childhoods? (56k Warning)


They say a lot of people are too tied to nostalgia, what I mean by that a lot of the stuff we like as kids aren't as good as adults, sure there's exceptions, but think about it Beast Wars > G1 Transformers, A lot of post 1987 TMNT Cartoons > The 1987 Original, 2011 Thundercats >1985 Thundercats, 2002 He-Man > 1983 He-Man, Future Power Rangers Seasons > MMPR, and and the most controversial one, Sailor Moon Crystal > Sailor Moon Classic. The Game Boy was the portable NES, it was in Black and Spinach Green, but It lived a good long life. The Game Boy Color didn't nearly live as long of a life, mainly due to the Game Boy Advance, But was it any good? Kind of...

Too Infinity and Beyond!!!!! Part Deux... Toy Story 2 Tribute



HAPPY 20th ANNIVERSARY TOY STORY!!!!!! The First one was a childhood classic, and The second one, while not quite to the level of personal preference as the original had some enjoyable qualities. It is objectively better than the original, but it isn't the game changer that the original was. what makes me say all that about this, am I s**ttalking the movie, while giving Psuedo Praises to it? Nah, This really has downgrades and upgrades to the original... I'll get more into it as I go into it...

Kinnikuman Retrospective: American Tour Arc: Part 1

ATATATATA!!!!!! 2-HIT COMBO!!!!!!
56k Beware and Spoilers Ahead


So Kinnikuman Completed a year of serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump, It had a tournament, a goofy beginning arc, and sense of adventure in areas, I bet Yudetamago was asking themselves a simple question...


Now What?

I feel like that Kinnikuman wasn't supposed to go on past the Kaiju arc, then the chojin olympics, but it became a sensation all over japan, inspiring Akira Toriyama to put aspects of it in series like Dr. Slump and Dragon Ball. Kinnikuman could've gone just about anywhere under the weight of it's own wrestling nature, for that it went to the then rising in popularity american wrestling scene. It won't be as unique as the zany characters of the Chojin Olympics, but it gives it a sense of realism that we won't see in future arcs. This is the Kinnikuman American Tour Arc...


Gaming Bits: Nintendo 64 (56k Warning)


Earlier this Year, I talked Nintendo in the 5th generation of video game consoles, Which talked among other things the N64. It was my first game console, it's games were arguably just as, if not more influential than the PS1's, it created some of the things we take for granted in games today. The analog stick, the popularization of FPS games on consoles, 4 players right out of the box, rumble, targeting, enhanced resolution, all this and more in the fun machine, this segment in gaming bits, we'll be talking it's ups, downs, lefts, rights, and my personal experiences with it...

A. Yoshi Theory: How will the Pokemon anime end?



The Pokemon anime is one of the most successful cartoons aired anywhere. It even has more episodes than any animated show in America, but let's face it, it's jogging in place, you're allowed to do that when you're a landmark series in any region's pop culture as this series. However, like it or not, it's (probably) going to end, they're going to lose a irreplaceable cast or crew member and it'll end. Even then, some anime has a ridiculously long shelf life, with some lasting since the 60s (take that Simpsons). Action/shonen shows aren't supposed to last this long, and they're done when they're done, but here's a list of possible endings for this long running anime...

Everything you need to know about Yo-Kai Watch...


You know those funny blogs with lots of thought, meat on the bones, and occasional story I do a lot?This is not one of those, This is a segment for parents, and questioning gamers and toy collectors whether you should or shouldn't buy this game and it's various media and merchandise. So Yo-Kai Watch, The franchise that envy's Pokemon and has a lot of fans in Japan. It's got the backing of Nintendo, Viz, and Hasbro in America, You've no doubt seen the commercials all over Cartoon Network, Nick, Disney, and maybe whatever the Hub's called this week. So it's going to be a children's fad not quite the size of Pokemon, but it'll have it's 7-11 year old fans who'll look at this franchise with the same type of fondness 90s kids have for Pokemon and Power Rangers, and buy the more expensive merchandise 10 years from now if/when it goes to the adult collectors market... So here's everything you need to know about Yo-Kai Watch...
