About Me

edit

Old-school gamer. I started gaming with the Atari 2600. I became an addict with the arcade release of Street Fighter II at my college. The SNES release pushed me into buying that system and a lame arcade stick. I haven't looked back since then. I still consider the 16-bit to be the Golden Age of gaming. The current generation is keeping me pretty happy, especially with the fighting game renaissance that's happening lately. And, yes, I'm old.

Proud owner of: Kiwi Gameboy Color, GBA SP, GBA Micro, PSP 3000, White DS Lite, Silver NeoGeo Pocket, purple SwanCrystal, SNES, Genesis, N64, purple Gamecube, slim PS2, Dreamcast, Wii and PS3.

Favorite Games: Last Blade 2, Street Fighter Alpha 2, Mark of the Wolves, Zelda: A Link to the Past, Zelda: Minish Cap, Dark Stalkers, King of Fighters, Mega Man ZX, Ikaruga, Macross: Do You Remember Love, Raiden Trad, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Valkyria Chronicles, Professor Layton, Killer7

Games on my mind:
Super Street Fighter II HD Remix (PS3)
King of Fighters XII (PS3)
King of Fighters XIII
King of Fighters 2k2: UM (PS2)
BlazBlue: Continuum Shift (PS3)

I downloaded KoF 94 for the VC during lunch. I then proceeded to play for 45 minutes, with a huge smile plastered on my face. I had the happiest flash backs to the Fun Arcade in Metairie, LA and the hours upon hours spent there.

The moral of this story...

What brand is the arcade pad you're using?

mistic

hmm that arcade stick does look pretty cool :-)

Hori. It's available at most retailers for about $50. The Wiimote plugs into the arcade stick making it wireless.

Who says there's nothing good to play on Wii? KoF is great stuff. If I could find one Wii, I'd indulge too.

Hori always deliver quality controllers. They don't get enough credit.

They don't get enough North American sales either.
