Now, we at BITDS were very excited when we heard they were making a G.I.Joe movie. (Sadly, to be disappointed). When I heard they were making a movie about my favorite TV show growing up, the A-Team, I was very excited. I actually came up with a treatment in college. Now sit back and enjoy [...]

I covered that in a post entitled, “10 Stupid-Hard NES Games: Then and Now.” I’m talking about the physical resilience of the cartridges themselves.

I’m sure there are plenty of other incredibly challenging NES games that I haven’t mentioned, but these 10 are the ultimate in 8-bit pain for me. Be sure to leave [...]

According to the study, players only have a 12.5% chance of finding her, which means you’ll run into the dreaded mushroom retainers for the other 7 out of 8 times. The proof is on the [...]

This graffiti of Link went up(and down) in Melbourne in 2006, but it’s new to me. Maybe it’s new to you, too. Another look:
