Well I hit the local PnT some days ago and ended up leaving with these games. The birthday of a friend that lives in Peru is coming up so I'm going to send him some games as a surprise har har har. I hope he likes them. Anyways, here are the photos.

Retro Game of the Week 013: Super Mario RPG(SNES)
Well this is the first time I'll be late with this entry but better late than ever. Anyways, this week we have Super Mario RPG for the SNES. Surprisingly a lot of people look at this game as a very odd one in the Mario franchise mainly because it's an RPG and we all grew up playing Mario in platformer games. Nintendo and Square got things right on this one though. The game is jammed packed with a lot of interesting features and an awesome storyline. The battles are intense and fun as well as the enemies. Your allies have very interesting stories behind them and you can even play as bowser! You can't do that in many mario games(except the sports ones).
The game brings your journey through a huge land with a lot of secrets to discover. Like any RPG, there are small sidequests that you are welcome to accomplish when you want to take a break from the quest.
I won't say much more for those who still haven't played this gem but I'll tell you this, this game rocks! Everything is great about this game. I can't see why anyone would miss out on this one! The only problems I had with this game are the leveling up system which only ended in level 30, and the fact that you couldn't play as Luigi. You did see pictures of him explaining you how to play the game in the instruction manual but that's not good enough! So that's it, until the next retro game of the week...

Car is working again
Ah I forgot to announce that my car is working once more. It needed a new battery so that's what I had to get for it. It was real interesting figuring out how to take the old battery out and then take it to the auto parts store and get the new one. Installing it was a breeze! har!
Lack of updates
Well I want to apologize for the lack of updates but I have been so busy lately thatI haven't had anything new to show. I will keep updating on other stuff though so stay tuned!

AWA!
AWA!
Finds 118: Games for various consoles
Well I got my first Wii game but it wasn't on my plan to actually buy it. There was this lot on ebay and I decided to try and bid on it. I won it only for one game(guess which one) and now I'm stuck with the rest. I actually don't have a Wii to play the Guitar Hero game but I'll see what to do with it. I also don't have a 360 for the BK game so I'll see what to do with that. The rest I already tried them out and they work great! Here are the photos...

And then there was one...
Sadly another one of the kittens was found dead early in the morning which brings up a very interesting story to help the last one survive. We rushed everywhere trying to find kitten formula since the problem was that the mom wasn't producing any milk. She looks to be too old and she is not that active so we had to do this. We looked but with no luck found any so we turned into the internet and any twenty four hours clinics until we finally found one but it was half an hour away. It was our last hope and with the kitten crying for some milk, we had to do it. We drove and found the place around six AM. The people were really friendly and helped us out. I'll definitely bring my pets to this vet in the future. Anyways, we have to bottle feed the kitten every two hours which is just a lot of work. We are changing our schedules just because of this kitten. We also had a sad burial for the other two that didn't make it. My wife was devastated over the loss of the other two but there was really nothing we could have done in time as when we talked to the vet, they mentioned that some litters are just not born right and she was right. The cat has had a really tough pregnancy and is still trying to recover.... In the end, I didn't slept all last night and finally got home at almost nine. I'm awake now, and it's about time to feed the kitten so until next time!

A sad day indeed....
Well sadly today around 6:00pm eastern time one of the kittens from the litter wasn't able to overcome a breathing problem and passed away. We tried to do everything to make the kitten comfortable and sadly it wasn't of any help. The only thing I'm glad of is that the kitten is not suffering anymore and is finally resting in peace. The other two kittens seem to be fine but we'll have to keep our eyes opened as this happened over night. I'm not sure what caused this as the kitten was very active the night before. I hope the other two won't come up with any problems. That's all for now.....
Finds 117: A couple of games nothing that interesting...
Went to the local thrift store and actually finally for once found something. Nothing that great, but something is something right? I picked up some NES games that looked interesting but like usual, ended up being so-so games and some of them not that playable. Here are some photos.

A Pirate Cart Inside Look 001: Supervision Cart
Well here is a new blog series I'm going to be working on. It's pretty simple. I open up pirate carts, accessories, or consoles and you guys help me find out some info about it. I will be posting these photos on forums to find some info about them and post them back here. That's about it! So lets begin with this one!
Here is the first opened pirate cart. This one is a supervision multi cart. What interests me the most is that this cart comes with an adapter. Yeah so you can just take it out and place the board on the Famicom. I will post more info on this cart as soon as I get it.
