Gaming Bits: Chip's Challenge

This Gaming Bits Segment is brought to you by the A. Yoshi Patreon...

There's many great games in the Windows Entertainment Pack. It had many solitaire variations like Golf, Tut's Tomb, Cruel, Freecell, TriPeaks, and other puzzle and card games, like Dr. Blackjack Taipei (a mahjong type of game), Jezzball, Maxwell's Maniac, Klotski (a sliding blocks game), Pipe Dream, Rodent's Revenge, Rattler Race, Stones, and more, but My favorites are SkiFree, Fuji Golf, and of course, Chip's Challenge. SkiFree should be it's own gaming bits someday, but here we're talking solely Chip's Challenge...

The time is mid-1995, the Sony Playstation is about to wow any and all gamers as it did in Japan the previous year, Developers were still learning the Sega Saturn, Nintendo's 64 was almost ready to come out, and The oldest surviving gaming platform was about to show what it was really made of. an easy to use Universal Operating System for IBM PC and Compatibles (which were in of themselves becoming cheaper and more accessible to to the home user) has came out appealing to businessmen, power users, gamers, and your typical Average Joe who wanted a simple non-clunky OS for IBM PC and Compatibles. That OS came to be known as...

Gaming Bits: E3 2015 Special

Well, here it is, the gaming event to end all gaming events. A place where big boobies and even bigger games meet. A place where you could see all the big games before they even get released. Trailers, Gameplay, Celebrities, Booth Babes in Square Enix Crop Tops, and I wasn't there, I'm broke, and not a big name internet personality. I tried as much as I could to follow the big news, but, I got some of it better than others, So in this VERY SPECIAL Gaming Bits Segment, We tackle E3, What I liked, and what I didn't like...

Gaming Bits: The MSX

In the early 1980s, Microsoft Japan was working on a universal standard for Japanese computers. You see Japan for the longest time had proprietary PC Standards, Like the NEC's PC-88/PC-98 series, Sharp's X68000, and Fujitsu's FM Towns, but that's an post or two on it's own. Kazuhiku Nishi commissioned the MSX standard to Microsoft, But what came of it? What's the rest of it's history? What made it a liable gaming platform? What impact did it have today? Well...

Nintendo Double Diamond Anniversary Retrospective Part 6: The Dark Age (Again, and 56k Warning)

Before we begin, let's talk about some Nintendo News that happened lately...


First off, Nintnedo's Creator Program or whatever it is is essentially a joke... Basically put, if you still want to make a living off of Nintendo games, you either A) have to give 30% of your paycheck to the big N, only produce videos on games on the list (and no, that doesn't include Pokemon, Smash, or others...), and not include other copyrighted clips, or B) Put some of your videos on review (which could take a damn long time because Nintendo), give 40% of your money to your employer, and it's the same basic details. If other companies follow suit, it'll lead to a snowball effect leading to creator programs that screw over their employers and we'll probably have a de facto SOPA for online videos unless you get permission from your employer, and lets plays and reviews will never be the same again.

On a more positive note, we'll be getting a live action Netflix Exclusive Zelda series, which'll be a more family friendly Game of Thrones. I'm really cautious, I'd like to see how this turns out. That's all i got considering they just announced this at the time of me writing this.


Now back to your regularly scheduled programming...

So... Regarding E3...

OK, this is going to be short quick and to the point, unlike previous years of my E3 blogs. Honestly this year might have a blog drought throughout these next few months, and another thing I have to address is that the story line might go at a slower than usual pace. Another thing I wanted to address is that it's Honestly it's been about a year since the last Ohranger VS B-Fighter chapter, but that's going to be put on indefinite hold due to lack of inspiration, come to think of it, a lot of my epic projects never reached completion one way or another, but let's talk about E3 whole it's still relevant...

Heroes of the Next Console War

So the new Syfy (AKA Wrestling Channel) reality series Heroes of Cosplay came and went, and already it's instated controversy, split opinions, and just plain bogusery. You know what else is in the news? GTA 5 (which I don't care for). You know what else else people are talking about in nerd culture? The next console war. Since both topics are too big for a R.Cubed, I'm going to do another two for one blog. So Let's get into action, shall we?

ERMAHGERD, E3 Super Blog!!!!

E3 is about to come to a close, and Yoshiette says she'll be home soon. In the mean time I invented another Yoshiette named Yoshiette 2, With a her hair color like the Vocaloid Megurine Luka, and her outfit like Luigi. Hopefully, she won't be as Crazy as my other Yoshiette who will be renamed Yoshiette 1. What did I think of E3 this year, Find out today. Did Microsoft Finally redeem themselves? Has Sony continued their Playstation Legacy with quality? Can Nintendo return from that rut they've been in as far as consoles for the past year and a half?

E3 is nigh... and so is the fate of the Games industry as we know it.

PREVIOUSLY ON THE ADVENTURES OF ANONYMOUS YOSHI...

Power Riding into Video Gaming's Future

So, where did I go? Short version is I was Life, that is all. Longer version is I was in a depression (which I might still be in around the time I write this, but not as bad as the end of last month) that I don't really want to get in to to much detail (except it involves people I really love and respect, and them getting mad at me) and I went Silent until I could find a solution. This is the main reason I couldn't make the April Fool's joke I wanted to make. What am I going to talk about this time? 2 topics. 1) the rumored Power Rider Apollo, and 2) Is the Game industry (namely Nintendo) doomed? Without further ado, Let's do it, shall we?

Halo: Sellout Evolved

Oh god...

Do I really have to talk about Halo?  A little more than a decade ago, Halo was the biggest talk about games, probably the biggest gaming phenomenon since Pokemon. Doesn't that seem like forever ago, instead of just 11 years ago? Now Halo represents everything I hate about modern gaming, The commercialization of games, and society in general.

E3, just as boring and underwhelming as you heard.

So there I go again, long silence, Broken promises, busy life, huge changes, people think I need to talk normal and get better sources, time for an explanation, yet again. A few changes will happen in the next few months which I will get to in August. This was supposed to be a weekly thing (which it was, mind you), but that might change later. Onto the next business item of today, why do I talk like a cross between a gangsta, a person who spends to much time texting, and a person who has grammar problems? Well some people want me to talk normal, No offence to those people since those people are entitled to their own opinions. But here's the problem, I don't want to sound THAT professional, even then most bloggers who actually have more than 75 fans on twitter or elsewhere actually have mostly proper grammar. I'm going to have at least 95% proper grammar and spelling (save for the occasional typo) and is going to use it only for  certain jokes and other stuff to keep my blog at most PG-13.


ALL STUFF (EXCEPT FOR THE PG-13 PART) SAID IN THE LAST SENTENCE ONLY APPLIES TO REGULAR BLOGS, AND SERIOUS BLOGS WILL HAVE PROPER SPELLING 99.9% OF ALL THE BLOG, AND NO JOKES.


And finally, my sources, all I can say is, I'm working on it. I just hate reading articles on the subject they take up time which i could use for my blog.
