It’s the First Day of Fall and I’m Already Celebrating Halloween.

The fine folks at London 1888 have a sweet line of horror merch on their e-shop, so I dipped into the ol' wallet and picked up a couple of things that catered to my NES Friday the 13th obsession. I've used the graphic on this t-shirt for a while as a Twitter avatar and was …

Friday the 13th: The Game Gets a Free NES Jason Voorhees Skin! YES!

It's no secret that Friday the 13th: The Game had a rocky launch, mostly due to server issues. The folks at Illfonic and Gun Media would like to apologize to fans of the multiplayer/co-op hybrid in the absolute best way possible -- by adding the NES version of Jason Voorhees as a playable skin.

It’s a tough thing to judge a console’s success by its launch, but I understand the …

First time using the Wii’s virtual console opened the floodgates.

I waited so long to finally make use of the Wii's virtual console, and I've had a Wii since the year it released. I know, I know, shame on me. Picked up Metroid & The Legend of Zelda for the NES, A Link to the Past and Super Metroid for the SNES, and Ocarina of …

The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses 2013 Tour Dates

Zelda. I fucking love it. I still remember begging my parents to get me the original Legend of Zelda on the NES for Easter. Seriously, what little brat asks for a video game on Easter? This guy! We all know that the Zelda theme is timeless and since its inception, the franchise has put forth …

The princess is in another castle? To hell with it, my soda needs a sweater!
