[HailingTheThings]

Congrats, venom!  Did you name him Obey? Obey Macbeth sounds pretty cool.

Obeynesia! Works for both a boy or girl! Yeah!

Got this thing today.  Not sure what good it is, hopefully it plays Hucards...

Haha, Grats! Please do not attempt to play any Hucards on it, as it will only emit loud audio.

Congrats man!  I have child number 3 coming any day now.  My wife has been having contractions since Saturday.  Is that your first child?

Hahaha... be very careful then. We were only going to have 2.  The factory is getting shut down after this one.  You will love it.  Even the deliriousness caused by lack of sleep is totally worth the end result.

Congrats on the baby man!  The first 3 months is the worst in terms of sleep deprivation, but it's so great as time goes on.


I swung by my local thrift on Friday since I had a coupon and went to town a bit on the electronics section.



Duo/Genesis 1 AV cable
N64 Save Card
N64 TiltPAK (Sealed and looks pretty le dumbs)
PS2 Controllers x2
XBOX Controller (Pelican Brand)
Slim PS2 with all hookups (Yay! There is some black sharpie on it though denoting the previous owner)
Electric Carving Knife (for a side project)


These also showed up during the week




I got a couple SMS games from owly who picked them up locally and then sent them to me.
Captain Silver [SMS]
Slap Shot [SMS]

Plus when my inlaws came to visit they brought a box of stuff my wife and I had left in IL, including my awesome Kamen Rider mask!  I got this at the Japanese festival that was happening last time we were home, but wasn't able to pack it to bring back on the plane.


Finally, some stuff from feebay came in...



Just a simple batch of Genny games I grabbed off ebay.  Only three of them are new to me, which is kind of sad

Marko
Radical Rex
Wheel of Fortune
HardBall III
Sonic 3D Blast
Toy Story

Toy Story was one of my favorite games as a kid, and not just because I loved the movie. It's actually a really decent action-platformer, with some really technically impressive levels (which were taken out of the SNES version, I believe). I'll always have a soft spot for the first-person level where you have to find the squeeze toy aliens in the maze. I thought it was so cool at the time, and now I can also appreciate how impressive it is from a programming standpoint.

Something I ordered that I'm really excited about should be coming today. It's not gaming related, but I'll try to post a picture anyway.

For my daughters pegro dirt bike.. I toasted the motor (( blush))
