Pound can bake it Take a look at this awesome Atari 2600 cake. I wish I was local to Los Angeles, because I would plunk down the cash to get one of these sweet masterpieces. This delectable edible masterpiece was created by Mendy Pound of Cakes By The Pound (cakesbythepound.com). An awesome work of baked goodness, everything you see in the picture is edible other than the board that the cake sits on. I can’t get over the details on this cake. From the perfectly black and red joysticks, to the wood grain icing on the console and the tiny Atari logo, it’s just mind-boggling. Maybe someone will head over to her site and order an NES cake or a Turbo Grafx-16. If you do, please send us pictures! The NES Controller Pillow Case What can you buy the retro gamer who has everything? How about the Nintendo NES controller pillow case? It's made with 100% super soft Fleece and machine sewn for solid construction. It's also machine washable and dryable and good to fit most pillows. At only $40, or two for $70, it’s not a bad deal either. Find out more at the Etsy website (www.etsy.com). The NES Sneaker!? Ok, now I have seen it all. I have seen some pretty interesting NES mods in my time, but I have never seen an NES packed inside a sneaker! Somebody has way too much time on their hands. What’s next? A NES Jacket? New Phone runs Nintendo NES and SNES games, as well as Game Boy. This must be Official Nintendo Month. Handset maker Fly has launched a phone with built-in support for Nintendo gaming platforms. Its MC100 supports Java and Nintendo NES, SNES, Gameboy and Gameboy Color formats. Fly claims it is the first handset to do so. Games can be downloaded from the Internet and played using special game keys on the device. The phone also comprises and MP3 player powered with a Yamaha chip. Fly is not too well known in the West; it does most of its business in Eastern Europe, but has offices in UK, France, Germany, India, Russia, Ukraine and Nigeria. Nintendo's Duck Hunt license may be revoked Patent and Trademark issues may be the reason behind its no-show on the Virtual Console, and the altered version for Wii Play. Nintendo has apparently been trying to have re-issued the trademark on their classic NES game Duck Hunt. The reason behind the difficulty is that the trademark itself is too vague, and Nintendo has been denied their renewal of the trademark. However, there's still the chance for Nintendo to make an appeal. This means that there's still the possibility that Duck Hunt may come to the Virtual Console. Pac-Man shoes? Yes, and the dorky shoes are WAY cool! Finally! The wait is over. Pac-Man shoes have arrived!!! While we're not sure we have the courage to wear these Ben Shermans, we do admire the effort. And that Blinky? Brilliant. They're on sale for $US 39.98, so if you're feeling brave, they're all yours. We won't stop you! Onlineshoes.com stocks them, but when we checked, they were out of stock. I am getting a (Pac-Man) fever just thinking about wearing them. 4 | Video Game Trader Magazine | April 2008 | www.VideoGameTrader.com - Thomas Sansone 5200 Super System was named for its part number in the Atari catalog, CX5200.

  • Flexible Games by Which I Mean Digital Game Systems That Can Accommodate Rule-Changing and Rule-Bending
    Let’s Play Our Way: Designing Flexibility into Card Game Systems Gifford Cheung A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: David Hendry, Chair David McDonald Nicolas Ducheneaut Jennifer Turns Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Information School ©Copyright 2013 Gifford Cheung 2 University of Washington Abstract Let’s Play Our Way: Designing Flexibility into Card Game Systems Gifford Cheung Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor David Hendry Information School In this dissertation, I explore the idea of designing “flexible game systems”. A flexible game system allows players (not software designers) to decide on what rules to enforce, who enforces them, and when. I explore this in the context of digital card games and introduce two design strategies for promoting flexibility. The first strategy is “robustness”. When players want to change the rules of a game, a robust system is able to resist extreme breakdowns that the new rule would provoke. The second is “versatility”. A versatile system can accommodate multiple use-scenarios and can support them very well. To investigate these concepts, first, I engage in reflective design inquiry through the design and implementation of Card Board, a highly flexible digital card game system. Second, via a user study of Card Board, I analyze how players negotiate the rules of play, take ownership of the game experience, and communicate in the course of play. Through a thematic and grounded qualitative analysis, I derive rich descriptions of negotiation, play, and communication. I offer contributions that include criteria for flexibility with sub-principles of robustness and versatility, design recommendations for flexible systems, 3 novel dimensions of design for gameplay and communications, and rich description of game play and rule-negotiation over flexible systems.

  • Bomberman Story Ds Walkthrough Guide
    Bomberman story ds walkthrough guide Continue Comments Share Hudson Soft (JP), Ubisoft (International) One player, multiplayer Japan: May 19, 2005 North America: June 21, 2005 Europe: July 1, 2005 Bomberman is a game in the Bomberman series released in 2005 for the Nintendo DS. One player This game is very similar to the original Bomberman. The player must navigate the mazes and defeat the enemies before finding a way out. In this game, there is more than one item in each level and they are stored in inventory on the second screen. By clicking on the subject with a stylus, the player can activate the item at any time. They may choose to use the items immediately or be more conservative with them. There are 10 worlds each with 10 stages. The last stage is always the boss and there is a bonus stage after the fifth stage. In bonus level, the player is invincible and must defeat all enemies on one of the screens. They can then move to another screen to collect as many items as they can with the remaining time. Worlds/Bosses This section is a stub. You can help by expanding it. Multiplayer this game can wirelessly communicate with other Nintedo DS systems to play multiplayer. You can play a multi-card game or play the same card. There is no difference in gameplay depending on one card or multiple cards to play. With a wireless connection, you can play with up to 8 players at a time. When you die in a multiplayer game, you send to the bottom screen to shoot missiles at other players still alive.

  • Shady Side Academy Senior School Summer Reading 2018 Summer Reading Is an Opportunity for You to Explore Some Contemporary Or Cl
    Shady Side Academy Senior School Summer Reading 2018 Summer Reading is an opportunity for you to explore some contemporary or classic books, challenging yourself with new ideas or becoming immersed in a gripping plot. You should choose a book that appeals to you and enjoy the process of reading. This is not the time to choose the shortest book or scurry onto the internet for a bland and superficial summary; this is not a time to follow someone else’s expert recommendation. Rather, this is a time for you to lose yourself in a story, under a tree or near a body of water, basking in the beautiful summer. Dig in and enjoy! You will read two (2) books over the summer. You are required to read a book from the lower-form (III and IV) list or upper-form (V and VI) list as your form in the fall dictates, plus a second book of your own choosing that you have not previously read. This second book can be a work of non-fiction or fiction, and all literary genres are welcome. The only requirement is that the selection be age-appropriate — nothing for much younger readers, please. Upon returning to school, students will be asked to deliver a short talk on this book in their English classes during the first week or so. This talk must include a brief summary, but it should focus primarily on an evaluation of the book — what about it was most and least effective, enjoyable, confusing, inspiring, etc., supported by specific evidence. More information on the presentations will be provided in the fall, but students should know in advance that each talk will last approximately five minutes and be followed by a short question-and-answer session.

    Jumpchain CYOA Lights! Camera! Action 52! Make your selection now! You press the directional buttons and scroll to option 52. You don’t remember having this game in your possession, or if you do you haven’t paid it much thought in a while. Still, something compels you to press the button to start. A cutscene begins to play as you select the option. What fresh hell is this. You have received +1000 Cheetah Points to spend to prepare you for the ten years you will spend here. Level 1: A Brief Explanation Some time ago, a mad scientist by the name of Dr. Morbis killed a mother cheetah, then stole her three cubs for his mutational research. He named them Aries, Apollo, and Hercules, and wished for them to lead his planned army of Sub-Species mutants to greatness. However, when the good-hearted Cheetahmen learned of their creator’s evil plans, they turned against him and escaped. In retaliation, he created his Sub-Species army, and tasked them with his destruction of his failed expirements (sic). Your time here starts at the beginning of the Cheetahmen’s first adventure, after their run-in with the so-called Action Gamemaster. His story, however, does not mention Dr. Morbis, and he is never seen again. In fact, there is even another version where the goal of the Cheetahmen is simply to rescue three cheetah cubs captured by Dr. Morbis for his undefined nefarious plans.
