Is That An Emulator In Your Pocket Or…?
ThinkGeek doesn’t just think geek. They read gamers’ minds. What you see above is the a320 Pocket Retro Game Emulator, a hand held gaming device that you customize by adding roms of your choosing. That’s right. A portable way to play your emulator games on the go. Perhaps you could take this time to catch up on the MOTHER 3 fan translation or a fan game like Super Mario Brothers: Shine Expedition.
These are currently on back order, but should be available on October 22, for the price of $99.99. No trick. All treat.
Monster Hunt Meets Final Fantasy With These SNES Inspired Sprites
Any of my fellow bit-brains out there seen these before? They showed up mysteriously on Capcom-Unity and the post author, Snow, didn’t know where they came from. It’d be nice to stalk the person who made them until they surrender their spriting secrets give the artist kudos directly. They could not have captured the Final Fantasy feel more perfect.
Hey! You Got Your NES In My SNES!
I’d say our grandfathers would roll in their graves to see a dual NES/SNES hacked together in such a fashion, but, that doesn’t work, since NES generation is my generation. So I guess if I were dead, or at least, died at age eight, I would be doing some barrel rolls right now in my coffin.
The 26 year old very much alive me, however, loves this. Not only is it cheap at a rock bottom fifty bucks, but it also plays “most” Japanese imports. For purchasing, check out the ThinkGeek link below.

SNES Digital Alarm Clock Mod
I just don’t even know what to say about this, except that I’m too lazy to attempt this and actually follow through. No surprises there, though. I’m too lazy to follow through on most stuff. Like taking all of my antibiotics, for instance. They say seven days, I say five. Once the burning stops, I’m done, folks!
