Famicom Dojo Podcast: Too Much of a Good Thing

by Sean "TheOrange" Corse, filed in Famicom Dojo Podcast, Podcasts on Aug.19, 2011

In our younger days, we couldn’t have all the games we wanted. We had to play what we were given (or could afford), and we often played those games to death. Now? It’s incredibly easy for anyone young or old to buy more games at bargain-basement prices than they could ever hope to play in a lifetime. How much is too much? Vinnk and SeanOrange talk about their trip to Chicago Comic Con 2011, taking photos with Felicia Day, what we expect to see at the upcoming Tokyo Game Show, and more!

I definitely listen to/read about games more often than I actually play them.� I manage to resist a lot of steam sales that my brother brings to my attention based on the fact that if I don’t ever play them, then it is essentially like not having them, whereas that copy of Borderlands that I just picked up for the PS3 on clearance I can eventually play (as is my intent, maybe sometime after Shadows of the Damned and Catherine), or, god forbid, sell if I decide I’m never going to get around to it.� On the one hand, I want to support good games and snag deals, on the other hand, there is almost no way I’ll ever finish all the games I have now.

The Powerpad was indeed made by Bandai. �Bandai even released it in the US as the “Family Fun Fitness” pad. �Nintendo quickly licensed it and pulled the existing Bandai stock. �This happened very shortly after Bandai released the second FFF title, Stadium Events, which is why it’s the rarest official NES title.

Yeah, a few years back I saw an ebay action for one. �It was the highest I have ever seen bidding go for a game.
