Happenings at the library

One look at this website and it's obvious I haven't been blogging on here very much lately. But that's not to say I haven't been blogging!  I've been mainting the teen blog for Sellers Library since I started my job, and have been concentrating my blogging there. We cover lots of events going on in the library, from anime club to book clubs to crafts and even video games! It's a busy library, and I…

Let's Go Retro! TMNT: Fall of the Foot Clan (Game Boy)

Um, I'll blame Summer Reading Club for the long Summer-long absence from my site? At any rate, I recorded these two videos a while back and it looks like I forgot to put them up on this site, so I just wanted to fix that! Watch me play through TMNT: Fall of the Foot Clan for the Game Boy!

I'm…

Let's Play Ducktales!

So PAX East has come and gone, and while there was a ton of awesome stuff I saw and played and sat it on, one of the biggest surprises was Capcom announcing their HD remake of Ducktales. People, I can not stress enough how huge of a Ducktales fan I am, even to this day. I have the cartoons on DVD. I have Scrooge figures, reprints of Carl Barks' Uncle Scrooge comics, the hardcover collections…

Arcadecraft: Impressions

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp8Qimzm-kQ?rel=0&w=560&h=315] This week an indie game launched on Xbox's Xbox Live Indie Games channel that I'd been waiting for since the reveal trailer was posted some time ago. A sim game where you get to run an arcade during the 1980s? Sounds awesome! I've put a couple hours into the game at this point and can say that while it can be fun, it also has some issues that keep it from being great. First…
