The You-Know-Who-Deletes-A-New-Boring-Hang Out - Dong Edition

I've never played it before -- it never really showed up during my collecting days back when I was a teenager, and I don't think I ever came across it when I was a kid, unless I've forgotten it. Hopefully it lives up to the price tag. That 10% off was what really sealed the deal for me.

sweet. So how far are you along your nes collection now? Half way?

About 1/3.

Including all of the games I have bought but haven't received (six titles now, including the two I bought today), I have 245 unique titles (203 boxed/complete, 42 cart only). There are 677 licensed titles to get. So I'm at about 36% complete.

Wow. Pretty awesome. I'm very jealous

A boxed copy of Zombie Nation for $279.

Box is in pretty good shape from the pictures (not amazing shape, but definitely closer to "very good" than "good"). It's from a website that I've never ordered from before, though, so I was kind of tentative about it. I did a bit of searching and found out that the guy who runs the website also posts on NintendoAge, and gives a 10% discount to NA members. He seemed well liked there and I couldn't find any bad things being said about him, so I bit the bullet and went for it.

Awesome man! Another rare one to check off the list. So many good deals on NintendoAge forums.

Funny thing about Zombie Nation. Is that it's one of the few games that was censored in Japan but uncensored in North America. The main "character" is the decapitated head of an ancient samurai warrior. I guess the Japanese found it too offensive and changed the decapitated head sprite to something a bit less gory.

Trust me, my wallet hates me.

Actually reading up on it on here. I got it a bit wrong. I guess the original(Japanese) version had a Tengu head as the protagonist. While over here it was changed to a decapitated samurais head. Also some of the bosses were changed such as the Statue of Liberty(Japan) To Medusa(NA). Looks like it kind of got the Totally Rad treatment and basically got a somewhat global graphic change. I really don't know why though. Sorry for the previous misinformation.

That's still pretty awesome. I can somewhat understand why they would change the Statue of Liberty. And I could imagine that they thought the Tengu head wouldn't have any significance whatsoever to the majority of NA players.

I'll have to give that article a more thorough read. It sounds interesting.

Yeah, back in the NES days if a game had any kind of eastern mythology or culture. It was usually stripped and replaced with something that us westerners could recognize and relate to. Thankfully now that eastern culture has permeated the west it doesn't happen to often anymore.

I really do love that Hardcore Gaming 101 site. I've spent countless hours reading it's many articles.

Okay, someone should come over here and make me dinner now. I'm starving. I might have to actually put on pants and run out for some Chinese or something.

Yeah, me too man. I'm out of all that leftover food from the wine dinner. Now I'm down to some eggs and bread...I guess fried egg sandwiches it is.

[Drageuth]

I'm toying between making tuna melts, or Chinese. This is a much harder decision that it needs to be.

[Drageuth]

Fuck it. Chinese sounds delicious right now.

Off to get food.

Hot damn, I forgot how enthusiastic Canadien fans are. That arena is loud as fuck right now.

Set up a live stream and yell at them to keep it down! Otherwise:

I love the idea of someone setting up a livestream that connects with the scorebox in the middle of the arena, and every time the crowd starts to get too rowdy, they get yelled at for being too loud.
