| Topic | So NES and SNES Classic Mini are back. Are you buying? |
| SumerNivek 06/28/18 10:19:30 AM #35 | WarGreymon77 posted... DPsx7 posted...Retro systems are way more bulletproof than modern platforms. They do, as long as they are computers that are "pre-hard drives" and relied only on RAM (besides tape or disk drives). My Commodore 64 runs perfectly fine to this day. In fact, I still dial into Commodore BBSes with it. My Apple IIgs is still working great as well too. Many expansion cards are still being sold and actively developed for the old Apple IIs. --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |
| Topic | Does anyone else agree with me that Clerks 2 was better than Clerks? |
| SumerNivek 06/16/18 6:57:56 AM #18 | I would probably side with Clerks 1...but it is a tough decision. Today I feel like Clerks 1 is better, but tomorrow, I will probably feel Clerks 2 is better. Heh. And, I am surprised there are people who didn't enjoy the Clerks cartoon. I thought it was amazing. --- "One more thing.

| SumerNivek 06/11/18 6:06:45 AM #11 | Pleasantly surprised by a new Battletoads. Looking forward to that! --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |

| Topic | Is Hulu down for anyone else? |
| SumerNivek 06/01/18 6:04:37 AM #6 | Hulu has been acting up for us the last few days on our TiVo Roamio. Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Prime are fine..so, you aren't the only one with Hulu problems recently! I just figured that the Hulu app on TiVo was just not working properly anymore after an update to the TiVo box. --- "One more thing.

| Topic | If you had Super Mario Bros on NES, did you have a cart combo or stand alone? |
| SumerNivek 05/31/18 6:06:23 PM #43 | Garethc78 posted... SumerNivek posted...Christmas of 1987 (still my best Xmas ever) we got the regular NES bundle that just came with the console deck, two control pads, and the packed-in, STAND ALONE Super Mario 1. Additionally that Xmas, we got Legend of Kage, Kung-Fu, Rush 'N Attack, and the biggie, Zelda 1. I think the Xmas of 1987 was when Nintendo saw the huge influx of new customers/sales. Zelda 1 had those two awesome (at the time, now kinda silly) commercials and the word-of-mouth on Zelda was definitely circulating around the playgrounds of 1987. Years later, we got a SNES the first Christmas it was available (1991?). And even though the SNES release was such a big deal to my brother and I at the time, it didn't quite match the Christmas of 1987 and the attachment we had for the NES. Love that system, and I am now raising my kids on my old 8-bit carts now too (along with Atari 2600). --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |

| SumerNivek 05/27/18 10:14:15 PM #27 | Golden Road posted... I've never actually seen the stand-alone cart in person before. I was surprised when I first found out such a thing even existed. That's funny, as I mentioned above that the stand-alone was my initial copy, and I think, vice versa, I didn't know the combo carts existed until I got that replacement NES with the Power Pad! --- "One more thing.

| SumerNivek 05/27/18 9:54:33 AM #16 | Christmas of 1987 (still my best Xmas ever) we got the regular NES bundle that just came with the console deck, two control pads, and the packed-in, STAND ALONE Super Mario 1. Additionally that Xmas, we got Legend of Kage, Kung-Fu, Rush 'N Attack, and the biggie, Zelda 1. We didn't get a Zapper until a few months later, I think, for my brother's birthday, as I remember having our dad take us to Target and pulling the "pull ticket" for the Zapper, along with Duck Hunt, Hogan's Alley, and Gumshoe, I believe. Much later on, after we wore our original deck down, it broke down, and instead of getting it fixed, my dad bought us the PowerPad pack and then I had the three-way combo that is mentioned above. --- "One more thing.

| Topic | What's the best RPG on the SNES? |
| SumerNivek 05/12/18 7:07:54 AM #55 | I voted FFIII (or VI), but I prefer FF II (or IV). Maybe it is the same reason that someone else mentioned, but it really was the first RPG that I beat and holds a special attachment. I had FF 1 and Dragon Warrior 1 on NES, but never got very far in them. Do we consider Zelda 1 a RPG? If so, that was actually the first one I beat, but I can see that being more of an "adventure" or "action rpg" rather then a traditional RPG. Cecil, Kain, Rydia, Tellah, Edward the "Spoony Bard," and FuSoYa all have a special place in my heart. --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |
| Topic | Why does Jimmy John's exist? |
| SumerNivek 04/28/18 8:55:51 AM #52 | MICHALECOLE posted... 1. Jimmy johns delivers Love the sprouts at Jimmy John's! I also like Jimmy John's and Jersey Mike's better than Subway. I think it is generally agreed on that both of those chains have higher quality meat and ingredients than Subway does. If I had to pick one, however, I would choose Jersey Mike's. My wife would pick Jimmy John's. --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |
| Topic | Why is PS4 worse at playing my DVDs than PS3? |
| SumerNivek 04/24/18 7:25:54 AM #18 | helIy posted... tapes deteriorate every time they're used, they deteriorate from just sitting there, and can be destroyed with magnets Tell that to my tapes that are still functional from Saturday Morning Cartoons 1985. If you store them correctly and only use them very occasionally, they can last longer than disc. --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |

| SumerNivek 04/24/18 7:13:40 AM #15 | DeltaBladeX posted... Kyuubi4269 posted...We've had its successor for 10 years, it's absolutely obsolete. Actually, you could say that about certain movies that are on VHS and never got released on DVD! :) One cult classic from the 80s that I wish they would put on DVD/Blu-Ray for the USA (it got released in Europe) is "Electric Dreams" from 1984. One thing that VHS is still superior in is archiving. Tape seems to last longer than discs when stored in the right conditions. --- "One more thing.

| Topic | What's your favorite NES game? |
| SumerNivek 04/24/18 6:59:45 AM #96 | I have had a NES since 1987. I somehow missed Pirates! on NES and still have yet to play the NES version. I first was exposed to Pirates! on the Genesis with Pirates! Gold by renting it at Blockbuster. Loved the series ever since and promptly went and bought the MS-DOS version of Pirates! Gold (as I had heard the PC version was the way to go). The Xbox version of the Remake is good, but it lacks ground combat/search parties on land. The PC version of the Remake has that in there and, for me, it adds to the game. They actually had to take out one of the cities on the Xbox version (Vera Cruz?) because it was only accessible by land (I think it was on the Pacific-side of Central America). One of these days, I need to find a complete copy of the NES version and give it a whirl! --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |

| Topic | POD: What were the games you felt had a bad ending? |
| SumerNivek 03/08/18 4:09:37 PM #25 | Questionmarktarius posted... The NES port of Ultima 3. I only ever played Ultima 3 on PC, so I did not know this. So, I guess if I want to play Ultima 3 again, stick to the Apple ][ or MS-DOS version, eh? --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |
| Topic | POD: What were the games you felt had a bad ending? |
| SumerNivek 03/08/18 9:12:55 AM #5 | I think many people will think Mass Effect 3 when they answer that poll. First one I thought of, even though I loved the game up to that point. --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |
| Topic | What's the deal with In-N-Out? |
| SumerNivek 03/04/18 7:33:13 AM #47 | They don't live up to the hype, but they are still pretty good. Though it is not a chain, the best burger I have ever eaten in my life is at Zip's in Cincinnati. --- "One more thing. If anything, they're Wisps in Eredar form." -Posted by Doilyn on 5/9/06. |
