My interest in videogames lies primarily in their capacity to bring people together like any kind of art. Some games became references and everybody knows titles like Mario, Street Fighter, Final Fantasy, Metroid or Halo. As a collector, I'm not into collecting a great amount of games but I'm mostly concentrating on the consoles and some of the main titles that came out for it.
I'm also creating my own custom made joysticks. Come back for more information on that.
Au revoir.

  New Music Group: Your Impressions

  Still Brother

  I really recommend listening to the song Bomb in my Stomach. The singer is a friend of mine and wants to see what kind of response they'll get from different places, so I thought I'd share it on Gamespot.

  If you feel like giving me a hand, please share the link with some of your friends to see what they think of Still Brother.

  They've been working on these songs for a few years but they kept the project a secret until now. They want to produce a videoclip soon.

  The Amazing NES Hunt Continues

  Lately, I found so many good deals for NES games that I decided to get the console. I got one on eBay and I'm still waiting for it, wishing it'll work good enough.

  Today I bought Alpha Mission, an old SNK game from the 80s. It was 5$, a decent price.

  Yesterday, my colleague came with a lot of old NES games. He thought they were all worth 2 or 3$ each. He has SMB 1, 2 and 3, Castlevania, Final Fantasy, Adventure Island 2, Megaman 3 and a few others. I told him I was interested in buying them, but he wasn't sure about the price, so I honestly told him the prices on the market. We'll see, but for the time being he lent me the games to test them and make sure they still work.

  I'll try to get back to the store where they sell every NES game they have for 2$ each. They just want to get rid of it. I took the most interesting games the other day, but now that I'll soon have the NES, I'll try to fully benefit from this deal.

  More to come on this amazing hunt as soon as I receive the NES!
