Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver American Save File Problem?
Yesterday, I headed down to summon/fight/capture Lugia in my copy of Pokémon SoulSilver Version for the Nintendo DS. I had originally started the game on my “DS Phat”, but for the last several days, I had moved over to playing on the wife’s DS Lite. Never once did I go online with the game in…

Lesson of the Day: “Brick” is NOT an Insult
Daizenshuu EX has been around in some capacity (whether it was named that or not!) since January 1998. Yeah, in internet years, we’ve been around for eons.

Post Office Frustration
On March 20th, I received an e-mail from Meritline.com that the pair of digital audio cables I had ordered from them were on their way to me in the mail. On March 23rd, I came home to see the standard orange/pink-ish slip the post office leaves when they have a package that will not fit…

PSP Post of Peril (Total Hardware Failure)
You may have heard a little bit about this on the podcast, but now that the entire situation has been resolved and I have all necessary images (and video!) to go along with the story, it is time to share my experience. First up, however, you will need a little bit of back-history with my…
