Finally! The NES Classic Edition Is Back! (Nintendo Mini)

Image
After disappearing from store shelves for over a year, the NES Classic Edition has returned! The last time the system was available, it was massively under-produced and lots of fans were disappointed. This is the story of how I *finally* found the Nintendo Mini, and how it was STILL a close call!

Toys R Us: Say Goodbye, Never Forget (Farewell Tribute)

Image
When Toys R Us declared bankruptcy and announced that they were closing most of their stores, many of us found ourselves saying farewell to a living piece of our childhood. Take one last trip into the store with Cereal At Midnight and let's wander the aisles together. This video was filmed just days before the liquidation sales began, when the shelves were stocked and the "going out of business" signs had not been hung yet. If you grew up a Toys R Us kid, this is probably how you'll want to remember the "biggest toy store there is." Though we have to say goodbye, we'll never forget how it felt to visit Toys R Us when we were young. This video is a tribute--not to a corporation, but to our childhood, when the shelves seemed endless, and our imaginations knew no limits.

DON'T BUY the Sega Genesis Flashback HD from At Games

Image
I picked one of these up today at a big box retailer and couldn't wait to get it home. I'd read the reviews and I knew the console had some issues, but I told myself that I had realistic expectations and I knew the strengths and weaknesses of the system, so I'd just appreciate it for what it was and overlook what it wasn't. Nope.

Donkey Kong Country and the Greatness of "Aquatic Ambiance"

Image
I've been playing a fair bit of Donkey Kong Country  lately on my SNES Classic Edition , and I've been struck all over again by what an amazing video game it is. Something I'd forgotten, though, was how beautiful the soundtrack to the game was (and still is), with a lot of different genres of influences going into the pot. The music for the game was composed primarily by David Wise with help from Eveline Fischer and Robin Beanland; Fisher's goal was to create music that would sonically refer back to great synthesizer scores of the past. He threw in some world rhythms and a bunch of African instrumentation, and the rest is history.
