Sky Shark is '87 and Tank Force in '91. Close enough. 

F-ton. According to one site there are 350. I think there's more like 200 core characters and the rest are variants. 

College dorm room decor brings me back. I remember putting some posters on the wall, that was about it. 

Civ Rev 2! Yes! I totally forgot it is available on Vita. I remember it coming out for mobile and wanting it so much when I didn't have a smart phone. I should get it on Vita though. That's one more thing to play on it. 

"Wack-a-Wolf" in ep. 18 had me giggling uncontrollably. More Francis!

I liked the Toy Town ads too. Very funny. 

I'm on area 5. I've been playing it in tiny amounts. I'm finding it very inventive. I just got those shades wearing pikmin that can fly. 

Wow! I never played Tank Force and it looks great. It's graphics remind me of a favorite shmup of mine, Sky Shark. 

Good luck at Pax West! I'm so envious. One of these days, I'm going to travel to all the game shows. 

I have almost no physical games for the current systems. I feel like its all gone digital and there's no need for physical copies. That being said, I desperately want to be able to buy a few right now. I so want to preorder Ni No Kuni 2, and I don't want a digital copy. I guess, I've just had to accept not having things right now. Physical copies get traded. My retro stuff, though, is luckily not worth much, so I keep it. I got a nice pile of that and that's not going anywhere. I'll probably start collecting current gen games when the next gen starts because they'll be cheap.

Nice collection though! Impressive, most impressive. 

I was just looking at the box art. It seems like that bird is gulping down pikmin, but if you look closely, they are just jumping around the bird. Yea right! I know it's a pikmin massacre. Pikmin being torn apart by the raging bird and Olimar desperately trying to pick up the pieces. 

Crafting is the best part. Granted, they don't tell you anything in the game. You just have to figure it out or look up some guides. I'm still figuring out what to use a sponge for. 

I had trouble getting over the graphics at first. That was the main barrier to me trying it. It was only after I watched Mark try it that I said, what the heck, and played it. It just draws you in. I think I like the opening moments of the game where you are just exploring the world and figuring out how to survive the first night. I crank it up to super difficult for that just for fun.
