LATEST FEATURES Being A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Before Microsoft and Sony do something regarding their future in the video game business, I wanted to write, and I've wanted it for a long time now, but other things kept getting in my way, and fearing that tomorrow might be too late, today will have to do.   Months ago,...

What You Didn't Know About Nintendo

This is a very interesting and informative Nintendo timeline infographic. We're not sure of its origin as we saw it on imgur without any mention of a proper source. If someone knows where it came from, be sure to let us know so we can properly attribute the source.

    Awesome front page thumbnail.

    Also, I've never heard or said "Nintendo Hard."

    Neither have I. I would also like to know what "insanely hard" NES games they are referring to.

    Plenty. Of course I was like 10 or 12 when I played these so I think that added to the difficulty. Ghost's n' Goblins, Rygar, Master Blaster, Battle Toads, TMNT, Mike Tysons Punch Out, Contra (without the lives cheat) are just a couple off the top of my head ( If I sat down and made a list it would be a lot longer) of games that in my youth I just could not beat. I could make it to Tyson, but he whupped my ass every single time. Ghost's n' Goblins was probably the hardest for me. Then years later I learned that even once you beat it, to get the real ending, you had to go through and beat it again. What a mind****

    "Nintendo Hard"

    I thought it has something to do with porn involving Princess Peach or something.

    My friend's dad rented Bubble Bath Babes at our Shell station. Classy I know, but they do exist!

    They forgot about the Super Mario Sodas. One of the flavors was "Princess Toadstool Cherry". Nintendo hard indeed.

    HMmm... link is not showing.

    Just go over to tvtropes(dot)org and search for Nintendo Hard. Nice list of examples on that page too.
