but $750 or whatever is insane

I knew a dude who found Immortal Techniques' weed stash backstage....$750 for a one-on-one is kind of cool if you get a couple minutes and some one-of-a-kind merch is always sweet. Plus, if you get something cool autographed, like Bluntman and Chronic comic or a Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back movie poster, you can make that $750.00 back.

Although, the $200.00 is pretty cool to get a pic with them....which is kind of like a one-one-one. I mean, people are people and if they think you're cool people, they might hang out with you. I actually knew MGMT in 2006 right before they got huge...they liked my "cologne".

it would be horrible if they turned out to be jerks. I've had that happen a couple times at trek expo. kevin smith sounds like an okay guy. I think he was on Bill Maher's show on hbo. I used to watch that show, but then it kinda started to depress me. he's a funny guy, but I try to steer clear of politics these days.

I've only been on disability for 14 months, and I think it lasts 3 years, then you have to renew. with my condition, it's a lifetime long struggle, so I'm going to try to get on permanent disability.

I'll tell you right now, get a really good lawyer; it's worth it. Check aavo.com for pro bono lawyers who specialize in disability. You have a serious condition that can complicate the hell out of your life, so you're actually entitled to more than you may think.

it would be horrible if they turned out to be jerks.

Riiiiiiight!? It happens all the time, but it's really hard to be the guy you "play" and the person you are. I don't know if you watch a lot of random shows, but if you "know" this guy
MV5BMzg2NTI5NzQ1MV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwNjI1NDEwMDI@._V1_.jpg

he's actually really cool.

Personally, I think it's all about "you", as well. Some people just suck--hell, I totally avoid some people just because of their vibe, so I could imagine a day in the life of someone famous.
Although, if I had the money, I think I'd just have a ball changing people's lives to make them not suck.

I had a lawyer after I got rejected a second time. the whole process took 28 months with 20 or so of those being without any money. that was the most awful part about it.

oh, and it was pro bono too. he only got money if I was put on disability.

I did mine in a little under a year (for debilitating migraines on the levels of mini-stroke), but I took myself off. I still get migraines, but the "complications" are nowhere near as painful...for non-pharmaceutical reasons.

I'm sure even with 20 months of no money, you should be able to get compensated for backed payments--my cousins' mother gets $800.00+ per month and a lot of other benefits--it's all about who's fighting for you. Trust me, she is dumb as a rock in a sock underwater.
Tomorrow, I'll take a look at some of the best in the nation who may do pro bono and see if they can renegotiate benefits.

Just remembered it was River City Ransom: Underground (PC)...even though my all-time favorite is still:


Although, River City Girls comes out September 27th (physical). It seems Best Buy is getting the alt cover art, so I'd still go with LRG seeing as Best Buy may not ever get the physical if they decide there isn't enough interest.

https://limitedrungames.com/collect...ucts/limited-run-45-river-city-girls-preorder

As for JaSB:MB
"Jay and Silent Bob Mall Brawl, an all new side-scrolling brawler set in the world famous and beloved View Askewniverse, is now available as a fully functional cartridge compatible with the original NES®. This cartridge is a full game playable by either one or two players!"
but that won't release until sometime in December; pre-oders close October 4th.

Now, I just need someone to play these games with because my cat can't hold a controller and the DDR Dance Pad doesn't work for cats.

if unofficial carts counted, think of all the bootlegs everyone'd be missing.

for fun, roughly 679 NES games have been released in North America...and one more joins the list.

I'm a pretty rough dude.....but I got those trap cards set and ready. Look at her face of determination.

It's semantics! Semantics!!

See! You get it.
Pfft, people who don't get it, amirite?

Seriously, I count games that have a mass release with carts as "real" games. For instance, Pokemon: My Ass is on a cart, but it isn't a "real" game.

That $100.00 red MK3 SNES cart "repro" counts (to me), as it was released "officially".

I don't know if I'm aiming the arrow correct, but it'll hopefully hit the broadside of the barn-target.

I think my take on it is more or less: If it was licensed by Nintendo, it's official, if it wasn't, it's not. So Game Genie isn't an official NES cart, or Super Noah's Ark 3D.

I get the feeling there's probably more bootleg Pokemon My Ass carts out there than some of these limited run repros.

If it was licensed by Nintendo, it's official, if it wasn't, it's not.

I thinkthese LRG prints are licensed by Nintendo. There was a dispute a while back when they (LRG) wanted to print Switch games and Nintendo actually held the process up. I highly doubt Nintendo would let them do business on this scale at all if they weren't going to release the game on Switch in the first place.

Don't stand in front of that arrow--I don't hold a bow correctly.

hmm...love kevin smith. I think he got either kicked off a plane or was required to buy two seats on some airline for being too fat. he's much bigger than he was in the movies, based on recent interviews I've seen of him.
FWIW, he recently had a heart attack and has lost an enormous amount of weight.

I think "endorsed" and "affiliated" might have a different meaning than what is usually interpreted.

Basically, my point is, they couldn't "sell" this game on the mass level they intend to without Nintendo intervening. Nintendo doesn't have their "hand" in it, but they definitely had to give a nod for LRG to go through with this project.

@Veho
Thanks, I broke the syntax when I CTRL+Z'd a thingy in the wrong place and it "spoiled" everything, so I just left it.

Then, I got side-tracked. I actually have the other syntax set, but didn't implement the edit.

I see that "/spoiler" ( at the end of post #1) closed the whole body inside of itself when the other "[spoiler" was opened.

I think I remember this quote from dogma. angel: "humans make the funniest faces when they orgasm." woman: "so sex is a joke in heaven?" or angel: "I'm here, because god's voice can't be heard by a lowly human. it took us six Adams to figure that out."

I think it might be more a case of "Nintendo legally can't stop them from doing so" - think Game Genie back in the NES lifecycle.
