I really ought to stop spending so much time abusing Oblivion's rampant goofiness, but come on.  When a game allows you to join a Guild, take every weapon on display next to the guild smith, and then turn right around and make her buy back her own inventory, you just have to stop and punish those silly people for being silly.

I just read a book about a guy having sex in a suit of full armor and now I'm better at wearing a suit of full armor.

Then I tripped over some incredibly hot piece of armor in Oblivion that is way too nice for my level (2, probably going on like 4) and it sort of rendered the whole money-whoring thing pointless.

Not that I didn't enjoy it.

Is that the one about the guy who's glued into his armor by the king?  Because that's one of my favorite short stories.

Demon's Crest, first. Demon's Crest, always.

It actually holds a very distinctive record; more copies returned than purchased in a day upon launch week. Journalists at the time thought it was due to parents objecting to the subject matter, but you have to wonder why those same parents are the same that bought a game called "Demon's Crest" with a screeching red devil on the front cover in the first place.

mana and evermore are two games I wish were out on VC.

According to Retronauts' guest from 2 days ago, SoM is out in Japan.

Speaking as a Mana freak, Evermore is not as good as Mana, but it's still fun, and when you get down to it...that's really all that matters.

Now give me that fucking cartridge.  :enraged:

So apparently Stubbs the Zombie has an interesting soundtrack, and there was actually a soundtrack available at the time of release?  I'm aware I can google and piratebay, but I thought I would just ask here for the off-hand chance.

Ssssorta.  It's actually the king in the armor, and his armorer stuffed his legs with glue so that he couldn't get up the stairs and stop the armorer from boning his sexually-frustrated wife.  So the king walks on his hands in full armor, all the way up the stairs, kills the armorer, and then finds out that he can only have sex wearing a suit of full armor.

In the book's defense, it's from the perspective of a guy who knows it's the stupidest damn story you've ever heard.

Demon Crest vs. Pocky and Rocky is actually a tough decision.  You don't lose either way.

Pocky & Rocky, like Goemon before them, just seemed so unlikely a property to grace these shores that I actually doubted its release. As in, I thought it was a hoax.

Now someone claims to own not only part one, but part two in cart form. This is like my own personal Bat Boy.

It's true. I remember reading the strategy guide in Nintendo Power for part II. It was my first encounter with Japanese mythology.

I have absolutely no idea how I ended up with Pocky and Rocky as a kid, but I will always, always have a soft spot for it.

My friend imported a Super Famicom copy of FFVI about two years ago.  It had been innards-swapped with a US copy of Pocky and Rocky.  I contend to this day that this was a superior outcome to the alternative, expected one.

I don't think I ever played the second game, but I do have the Nintendo Power for it, somewheres. First game was tops though. Even stole the name of the villain to use in my own stupid made-up shit.

Wait there was more rocky and pocky beyond the first two? And cameos...ive got a lot of retro buying to find.. Also Demoncrest feels like megaman with metroid tendencies. Though the entire game was awesome.
