Whoever told you the lite could play GB games was a liar.
The DS does not have a Game Boy chip in it like the GBA did. So you can’t play regular Game Boy or Game Boy Color games in a DS.

Is it me or does it seem Nintendo seems to only have a connection to play Game Boy games every other system. The Super Nintendo had Super Game Boy where you could play your GB and GB Color games. Nintendo 64 didn’t have anything for Game Boy. GameCube had a connection where you can play everything up to GBA. So far, nothing has come out for the Wii for Game Boy games so the next Nintendo system should be bigger because you would have to include the DS games as well.

Hey, I found the Compilation Disc that has the Pac-Man game for my 360. Seems Microsoft wanted to hide the disc behind one of the side paddings. Guess I was smart to not throw the box away! I probably won’t play it tonight. It’s getting late and I’ve been busy posting blog posts and catching up on e-mails while flipping between games on the tube. Oh well, that’s why there’s the weekend which will be here before we know it (but not fast enough).

You could play the Pokemon games on 64 with the Stadium games, even had the SGB borders.

DJD – I believe you may now be the Batman to my Joker as I’ve hated the Braves ever since Sid Bream came marching home in Game 7 of the 1992 NLCS, thus preventing my beloved Buccos a World Series appearance. Ever since then, they’ve suffered and suffered some more. After the near epic collapse in the ninth last night, I was sure the Braves would walk away with a win.
You would think the Marlins would be my most hated team after what happened to them against the Cubs in ‘03. Of course, if that were true then I would have to hate the Giants for ‘89, the Padres for ‘84, and of course the Mets for ‘69. Honestly, I don’t really have a hated baseball team, even though I do favor some teams over others. I never hated the Yankees, but I never really liked them either. I do respect them because of their history. The only team I could think of having a hatred for would be Oakland. I seem to not like teams from Oakland because, yes, out of the 32 teams in the NFL, my 32nd favorite team are the Oakland Raiders. I guess because the A’s come from the same city, I have to hate them as well, but that’s not really the case. I actually hate them more from when they were in the AL West along with the White Sox. The late 80’s/early 90’s were my most hated times with the Athletics and they way they dominated the AL West. Plus you also had Canseco and McGwire on that team which are two more reasons to hate them in those days! These days? I don’t know, I guess my hatred would be because they dominate the Rangers since I’m uprooted in Texas and therefore follow the Texas teams more than I do the Chicago teams. Of course, you can take the man out of the city but you can’t take the city out of the man! GO CUBBIES!

And by Tuesday you obviously, meant next Tuesday, right?
Since this is April Fool’s Day, here’s a link to the trailer for the remake of the 80s slasher “April Fool’s Day”. I couldn’t find a trailer for the original film.
I’m sick again with a cold. For some reason my body decided to go on strike in late March as this is the second time I’ve been sick in I don’t know how many years.

Wow, we need a new entry or article. This place is getting like your creepy Aunt’s house where nothing ever changes and the general decor is 1983 old-lady.
Spooooky.

Have you guys seen the pic of the New Jason Vorhee’s?

Jester
The new Jason Vorhee’s what?
I kid..I kid.
Yes, I have seen the pic, and I really don’t get it. If this is a remake of the original F13, Jason is barely in it at all…
Ghosted by Cameron T. @ 04/02/2008 12:32 AM EST
Cameron T., I’m actually serious about the vid being about Muppets. I know the url to the true vid, and trust me, that isn’t it.
Invader Norbert
You lying bastard! You got me to click on it!
I can’t believe I fell for that again…Hell, I had even seen the link on Fark…
(But it definitely is the Muppets! ).
Ghosted by Cameron T. @ 04/02/2008 12:41 AM EST
Me Fail English? Thats umpossible!
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing though. Was Jason in the first movie at all? It’s been a while since I’ve seen that, But I seem to recall…..Jason Jumping out of the water at the end?
Thats it. Im off to Amazon to buy the Friday the 13th Movie Compilation.
Ghosted by Jester @ 04/02/2008 12:56 AM EST
You lying bastard! You got me to click on it!
Now, now…I DID say it was The Muppets, and that it wasn’t the “true vid.”
Well, I’m sitting here eating a bowl of Ca’pn Crunch and watching an episode of Night Court I recorded from TV Land last night. Here’s something I’ve been wondering, did they shrink the Ca’pn Crunch bits because they seem smaller than I remember. Of course, I didn’t eat regular Crunch the way I used to eat Peanut Butter Crunch and Crunchberries. Of course, the Crunchberries cereal had the same bits so perhaps that’s where I thought I remember them being bigger. Oh well, as long as the taste is still good I don’t have a problem what size they are!

I blame the board for lack of new blog posts or articles, if you were all cheap like me and didn’t have a wii then Matt wouldn’t be distracted playing yall in Smash Bros.
Ghosted by Rob @ 04/02/2008 9:29 AM EST
I have coffee, and I am at my computer. My fingers will walk soon.
The tension is palpable. If a new article appears, I will probably blast out of my seat and launch myself from this 19th floor window. It would be a fitting end to this day.
Regarding Rickrolling: Am I the only one that looks down in the corner at the URL before I click on a link? XD I usually don’t even click on Youtube links anymore, but that’s because I’m always listening to music and never want to turn it off long enough to watch a video.
Oh man, I don’t know if Huell Howser is just a California thing or what but I just watched an episode of Visiting that some of you guys would have loved. This guy had a Hong Kong catfish that was two inches long when he bought 11 years ago that they released into a lake because he was too big for his tank. This fish was absolutely massive, like at least two feet long. At the end they did a montage of the fish and his owner, set to the strains of “The Way We Were”. It was AWESOME.
I thought I was the only one in the dark on what rickrolling meant. According to Wiki: a person provides a link they claim is relevant to the topic at hand which actually takes the user to the Astley video. It can also mean playing the song loudly in public in order to be disruptive
Ghosted by Dan @ 04/02/2008 4:29 PM EST
Hola fellow X-E ers! Haven’t posted on here in ages, but found something some of you may just enjoy! It’s got everything but “The Carlton Dance”! Just click my name – it’s hilarious!
Yea, I never understood why Rickrolling was supposed to be funny in the first place. Of course, I like alot of 80’s music, including Astley.

Just relax. Matt will post a new articlein all due time. Patince is a virtue. Also i’m eating pizza rolls as im typing this. =)

I Rick Roll people sometimes in heavy traffic…i have an old cassette with 80’s songs, and that song is on it…so i roll down my window and blast it.

I hope Matt’s next article is about children’s vaccinations, I’d really like his opinion on them.

Am I the only one here who thinks that now that Wii will have downloadable games at a low cost,Nintendo should bring back Pro Wrestling? it would be awesome seeing 3D versions of Starman and Amazon taking on your Mii people. Especially if there were online matches.
No real life wrestlers like Randy Orton,I’m only intersted if it’s the original lineup.
(or Kaiju Big Battel)

So (regarding Super Smash Bros. Brawl) your Brawl code is different than your Wii friend code?
I am going to get Brawl very soon and would like to add as many of you as I can. Can someone give me a two sentence breakdown of this?
Ghosted by Magic Toy @ 04/02/2008 10:40 PM EST
Two sentences-
1. It’s a different code.
2. All our codes have been mentioned in the last couple of threads.
Dohopoki,You can rot in the pits of hell. Fighter Hayabusa cannot hold a candle to the likes of Starman.
Does anyone remember the Ric Flair guy’s name?
Ghosted by Kid Nicky @ 04/02/2008 10:56 PM EST
Magic Toy
1. Brawl code is separate from your Wii Friend Code.
2. You add your friend’s code. (inside the game, not on the Wii). They add yours. Nintendo pretty much does the rest.

Holy crap, this is so weird that this topic has come up cause just the other day at work I “Rickrolled” the whole office without even knowing it. Some girls behind me were singing the song and as a joke, I looked it up on Project Playlist and started playing it. The whole office got a bit of a chuckle out of it. I had no idea this was some kind of “thing” that people are doing now, much less that it actually had a name. What a strange practical joke.
The coolest thing happened last night. You know the site I mentioned above about the viral marketing for The Dark Knight? Well, I went to it again to see if there were any updates, and it had changed. Apparently, the reason why they were encouraging everyone to go to all these bowling alleys was that at one of the locations had a secret prize. It was revealed today that the one that had the prize was one in Brazil. Someone went there and was given a bowling ball with a cell phone and a note and a number to call. When they did they got a secret message.
Aaaaaaanyway, I checked out the site last night and it had changed, this time telling you to go to another site where you can “hack” into a certain security system. Supposidly, the Joker himself is providing all this. You enter your name, phone number and e-mail address in, and they give you the password of “Needle”. Well, I did that, waited a few seconds while it was processing, and suddenly my phone rang! The number on the caller ID was all zeros. I got a pre-recorded messaging asking for my password. I said “needle”, heard a pause, and suddenly got another message from Commissioner Gordon! He said something about how I was now on the Gotham City task force and how they now had my IP address and would be in touch. How freaking cool! I’m the biggest Batman dork in the world and am just obsessed with all things Batman, so I just about freaked out. I can’t wait to see what they do next and to see how/when we’re getting another trailer.
Sweet, thanks guys. I’ll be adding you all in the next couple of days (hopefully) and I will post my Brawl code where when I get it. I hope you guys all add me!
Ghosted by Magic Toy @ 04/03/2008 1:09 AM EST
