Fat-free game reviews and weekly backlog discussions
I finally managed to get my hands on the elusive SNES Classic, so of course, the first thing I did was hack it.

It's … Continue reading The 8bitdo Retro Receiver Solves the SNES Classic’s Biggest Problem for $13
It's Inauguration Day here in the States. What better day to escape in to the world of video games, right? How will you be spending your weekend? I'm sitting at the 45-hour mark in Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE on Wii U, having spent the last few mopping up side-quests, grinding out Stage Ranks, and … Continue reading It’s the Freakin’ Weekend! So What are You Playing?
Not a day goes by where I check my feed and see countless posts about how the Wii U is selling poorly or losing the support of yet another third party developer.

I was actually after a copy of Zack & Wiki for my roommate, but after seeing how awesome it looked we had to look for a second copy. Two hours and three … Continue reading Today’s finds!
This is pretty much how we'll be spending our weekend, knowing damn well it's going to take most of that booze to enjoy Ju-On for the Wii.
Have you guys heard about the Xbox One reveal from this past Tuesday (*sarcasm*)? I'm not trying to ride the hate wave here, but I found little to be excited about after the reveal was over.
