At least it's Dreamcast! Also IIRC the Game Gear game she was playing was Tails Adventure.

Tails Adventure was her favorite GG game, so I'm going off probability here.

Not sure if serious.

Awkward! Nobody's posted since my april fools prank.

Oh well!

My niece and nephew came over to visit. We played games.

We played some Kirby's return to dreamland on Wii, then Some Rayman Origins on PS3. I wanted to try something different, so I popped in Puppeteer

At first they liked it. But It looks like my niece got a little scared with some of the visuals in it. So I took it off.

I then pulled out my SNES and they are familiar with that console. I sold my brother-in-law a system and some games last year.

They got excited with all the games I had. They only have the six games I sold them.

But they really enjoyed Donkey Kong Country 2, Aladdin, Turtles IV, Mario Kart and Allstars.

My little nephew is quite the little gamer. He got a kick out of TMNT!

Oh an right there is my newly made Frankenshelf! Made with mostly a pre-built shelf I had in a box. Now complete to show off my stuffs. Well, mostly complete, I still need to make some backholes for the plugs.

Didn't get a picture or anything, but at Animazement I brought some arcade machines, including a Neo Geo with Aero Fighters 2 in it.

While we were closing up, a kid probably between 8 to 10 years old came in with his dad, went to the machine and started explaining the game in as great a detail as he could, what it played like, how it controlled, etc etc.

Felt good man, getting a little kid hyped for some shmups.
