So, if it’s more than 10 years old, it’s considered retro. Am I right?

Google’s Pac-Man header.

Today marks the 30th Anniversary of Pac-Man and Google decided to celebrate it by making a playable header. Go try it before the day end. I thought it was something worth posting on that blog. End of line.

Super Mario RPG

Monday, March 8th, 2010

There’s been a major update, in my video games collection, lately. As I was browsing through the flea market, I stopped by a video games store to see if I could get some games at cheap prices. I’ve bought Geist for GameCube. Then I came across this:


Super *freaking* Mario RPG!

This really made my day. I was looking for Super Mario RPG since years. Of course, I saw several copies for sales in specialized stores, but they prices were always from $70 to $90. I almost fell on my ass, when I saw it at $45. They must be kidding me, I was thinking. But there was no joke; they really asked for this price. At this moment, I heard a voice in my head saying “BUY IT”. Buy it, because you’ll never see it at that price for the rest of your life. Then, this is were most of my flea market money went. I only played this game once in my life, I remember renting it at a local video club and I thought it was a 3-D Mario game. Being a kid, I somehow found this game deceiving. I didn’t understand the concept of RPGs and my lack of knowledge for the English language would have probably made that game more complicated that it was to me. Little I know that this game would turn up to be one of the most-looked SNES cartridges. I guess that’s both the elements of rarity and RPG, which makes me want this game so bad. Well, I’m glad to have finally found it. Now, I’ll have to check for Final Fantasy III and Secret of Mana. By the way, for those of you wondering, the game works very fine. Finally, this will be all for today. End of line.

Filler video… Again!

Chart time!

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

I’ve compiled all the video games I own and made a pie chart out of it.


The most games I own is for the Atari 2600, counting thirty-seven cartridges and the less I own is for the Atari 7800, counting only one cartridge. I’ve created this chart with Open Office Calc. If you want to see the complete list of all my games titles, just go here. What should I compile next? Music? Movies? Maybe both. End of line.
