Imagine this: You and your best friend are at the bottom of the ninth, and he’s kicking your ass by 3 points. It’s 1:30am in real time, but it’s all sunshine at Wario City. You are at bat with an underdog, Purple Toad. His career, his team, and this game rest on his shoulders. With just two outs and bases loaded, Purple Toad needs a Grand Slam, or its game over.
With only one swing, he sends it out of the park in what could be the most historic grand slam ever witnessed. No other video game exist where this is possible, and I’m happy its this one.

This shit is so goated, it’s actually insane. I also might be one of the best players in the world, so kind of a selfish answer

If you have a Nintendo Online Membership. Run to the app store right now. Nintendo has released their own Spotify, and thank fucking god. Do you know how terrible it is to stream low quality rips from YouTube?
The fact that this is the first time Nintendo is releasing their own recorded music (and at this high quality) is something I’d never thought I’d ever see with my own eyes. But if they were, of course it would be through a paid streaming service. I can only dream of owning a record of the Wii Sports Resort album :(
Also not everything is on there yet, but enough to suffice. So if you’re awaiting songs from Donkey Kong Country Jungle Beat, join the crowd. You can at least listen to the Bath theme from Nintendogs and put it on an hour loop, like me!

I‘ve been struggling to pick-up books lately. Not for any particular reason, maybe besides motivation. However, when I’m on a walk and I see these little libraries in front of peoples‘ houses I’m hooked. They’re like mailboxes but for everyone!
I’m currently reading Zeitoun by Dave Eggers. Which is about a family and their struggle through Hurricane Katarina. It’s a great read, and these little libraries are probably chock-full of way more just like it. They should the same for movies or video games. Can you imagine being on a walk and opening up a box with Madden ‘07 for the Gamecube? I can only dream.

I was an avid member of our local pool club. It smelled, the food was trash, my stomach was in pain more times then not, but it was paradise. I faced my fears in the deep end. I even still have friends in my life that I only had known from being at the pool club. Days at the pool club were days I’ll never forget.
