  Retro Games

  I recently began buying old games for my Nintendo 64 off eBay. For a few dollars a piece, I got Donkey Kong 64, Pilotwings 64, Paper Mario, Star Wars - Episode I: Racer, Forsaken 64, Quake, Quake II, Blast Corps, Excitebike 64, Resident Evil 2, Cruis'n USA, Cruis'n World, and Vigilante 8. I am quite happy with these purchases and some were based from your suggestions. All this got me thinking, "When these games originally came out, they cost anywhere between $60-$70 each. Now I can own them for $3!" Obviously, the monetary value of the games has decreased; however, their play value, in my opinion, remains high. Sure, the graphics, sound, etc., are dated - I cannot deny this but the games remain worthy purchases given the sense of nostalgia and fun that they provide.

  I think it might be time to update my NES, SNES and GCN libraries!

  (On a side note, if you need to strengthen your Wii library, pick-up Red Steel 2. Great graphics, awesome controls, unique story - what more could you want?)

  Emblems

  Can someone explain to me how the emblem system works? Sometimes I have three emblems, but other times I have only two emblems. I am not sure how emblems are awarded and I have never actively sought one. From my experience, they just appear, disappear, then re-appear like some lame horror movie franchise.

  Come to think about it, I just had a Saw emblem. Now where did it go?
