“Names in Games Vol. 1 - Donn Nauert,” apparently there was some kind of US video game team and these are commercials featuring its captain. Oh 80s.

This is really cool, except for the fact that it was compressed into a .rar file, which Linux doesn’t support by default. I had to download a third-party program that uncompresses them, then took the liberty to re-compress it into a .tar.gz file for Linux users and uploaded it to my MediaFire account. Yes, it may not seem like a big deal, but it effectively limits the amount of people who can download it because of a stupid proprietary archive format.

New AVGN episode. I was laughing the entire way through. I was so surprised when James smashed the NWC carts with a hammer, until I realized he would never do that to the real copies. One of the best episodes the Nerd has made.
But If You Call It an NES-001, is It Worth $13,000?
Kotaku hit it spot on. This new “Mark” guy on Storage Wars in an idiot. My brother thinks he’s a plant by the producers to make the show more interesting and to have a villain character that was previously filled by Dave. What millionaire douchebag goes around overpaying for storage lockers just so other people can’t have them? I would hope millionaire have better things to do with their life than participating in what essentially is a poor person’s job. I’m not hating on Storage Wars, but this Mark guy talks out of his ass and seems pretty suspicious in general.
