Syphilis becoming a big problem in rural areas:

Quote
In Missouri, the total number of syphilis patients has more than quadrupled since 2012 — jumping from 425 to 1,896 cases last year

Quote
Syphilis is back in part because of increasing drug use, but health officials are losing the fight because of a combination of cuts in national and state health funding and crumbling public health infrastructure.

Huh. I didn't know you could catch it that way.

An important announcement from the nerd-in-chief himself:

Everyone knows the only reason anyone ever has a "night out" is to get a root.

Palpy keeping himself alive with the force at the bottom of the wrecked DS with broken legs for 36 years? What if Rey meets him and HE does a flashback, only he tells it wrong/lies, and they cgi-rework the RoTJ battle in his chamber?

Alright Mr. Krugman, is a Forbes article not good enough for our fine forums? Plus the writer's last name is Mack; if anyone knows about this subject, it's him.

Gamestop: "I don't feel so good..."

The retail chain projected after U.S. markets closed Tuesday that sales will drop 5 percent to 10 percent this year.

The stock fell as much as 13 percent to $8.82 in New York trading Wednesday, adding to a 20 percent decline so far this year. That’s the lowest level since September 2004.

...has stories from a sheep ranch (from that same week):

...cares about ethics:

I picked up MonkeyBall DS for my sister as a graduation present.  Would it be wrong of me to open it up and start  playing it before I give it to her in  a couple of weeks?

...fights for the downtrodden:

IM FIGHTING FOR YOU KYTIM http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=33180.0

...knows a TON about the laaaadieees:

A woman can ask you to marry her. If you refuse, you have to give her a silk gown and a kiss.

keep it moist

And most importantly of course, has a long reputation of posts that make me giggle, making him one of the highlights of NWR's 20 year history:

What's the Vector, Victor?

Why did I buy a Cube at launch? I missed out on price cuts, a free game, a free Gameboy Player, the platinum colour, bigger memory cards, and all these cool import colours.

I could only find 2 Infernal Monkey reviews, but they're better than all the other reviews in the 11 years since their release--COMBINED.

But watch out! William and Helen are about, and they just so happen to be our new er, heroes? One plays soccer all day, only to go to bed with his soccer ball, and dream about more soccer. The other spends her time alternating between the violin and running into the city to look at shop windows. I can relate to that.

See, the first NiGHTS game pretty much left it at that, but now we have a proper story and everything for whatever reason. NiGHTS has been given a voice of a burly British nanny wrapped in a blender to keep the gender a mystery, plus there's an owl that never shuts up. Practically every dialogue box that results from him opening his beak is accompanied by a "Visitor!" voice sample. Owl (yes, that's his name, creativity at its finest) truly is this generations very own Navi.

The same horrendous music that vomited into my ears on the title screen is back, we're off to a great start. It's a bit like a cat caught on a fence and a Game Boy Color in the process of being hit with a sledge hammer. The table is all pre-rendered, and nicely compressed to death to the point of looking like a grainy grain factory.

A 'BONUS SCORE' will scroll by on the top screen every now and then. Curiously, this simple text punches the frame rate in the crotch so hard it'll feel like you've just poured glue all over your DS.

The E3 previews were the best. We all looked forward to them like kids on Christmas eve waiting for Reggie Claus to flood our living room with megatons, name taking, bizarre marketing stunts, and bombastic conversations that only Reggie could deliver. They also contain references to what irked gamers at the time--insolent game journalists, achievement trophies, Sony and M$ stealing from Nintendo, HD vs gimmick debates. You had to be there.

Rab?

I think he said that he will get the story up on Sunday.

wow you're trying to rush, rab? good luck maxi.

if you keep pushing him you'll probably end up being in the story.

It was incredible how these details would slip out ahead of time each year, each time through mysterious consequences. So far I've found '05, '08, '09, and '10:

[It has to be said, Reggie is such an understanding and caring man. He looks me square in the eye and tells me that I did the right thing to cheat on Cammie with her daughter. He goes on though to explain that, despite my virtuous actions, Cammie had fallen into a state of despair. In her desperate state the currently scheduled conference was to be her coming out on stage and performing interpretive dance of projected 2011 sales figures to the tune of a Super Mario Bros ringtone. Reggie explained that it was up to me to track Cammie down, cheer her up and deliver a solid E3 script. I asked if we needed a high concept one like my rejected Animal Crossing proposal or actually do the McDonald's conference from last year. Reggie told me that we just had to keep it simple because planning time was short. Reggie payed for our coffee with a $100 note and left before they could give him change.ive him change.

"NOW I HAD TO PUT UP WITH A LOT OF STUPID B----ing FROM NOT JUST YOU CLOWNS BUT YOUR LACKEYS ON INTERNET FORUMS LAST YEAR. BY GEE AT ONE POINT I WAS SO BUSY KICKING PEOPLE'S ARSES THAT I HAD TO GIVE UP ON TAKING NAMES IN THE EVENING! YOU CRITICISE US FOR ATTRACTING A WIDER MARKET MEANWHILE THE PS3 HAS TURNED INTO A GLORIFIED KAROKE BOX AND MICROSOFT, WHEN NOT BUSY STEALING OTHER PEOPLE'S IDEAS, SPRUIK THE XBOX'S TELEVISION AND MOVIE VIEWING CAPABILITIES! **** ME!"
Reggie was so worked up he had to approach the McDonald's counter, toss aside the person ready to serve him and help himself to some chips just to calm himself down.

"To appeal to the core demographic we've made a few small changes to the mechanics of Wii Fit. Instead of measuring your weight and giving you a Wii Fit Age, Wii Fit Plus measures you and awards you an achievement score, which may or may not be related to how well you stood still on the board. In the exercise games, you will earn exp points which you can use to level up your Mii. You beat the game when you collect all the arbitrary tokens hidden in the exercises or when your achievement score reaches 1000. Wii Fit Plus comes bundles with a pen and paper so you can write down and show all your friends and family your achievement score because I'm sure they care." Cammie explained while the confused volunteer fell over from not balancing well on two feet.

He rushed off so quickly though that some paper slipped out as he went. At first I was gunna leave it alone because I know I shouldn't interfere with Reggie's list, that'd be like interfering with Santa's list of who's been bad or good. But I couldnt help myself and I needed to check if RawMeatCowboy's name had been taken yet so I grasped the paper and slipped off to read it, in case Reggie came storming back. What I found though was that it wasn't a list of names as I had suspect but infact the script for this years E3 presentation! Now I wouldn't normally divulge this information of course but me and Perrin Kaplan had a big breakup over the phone earlier tonight. Stupid b----- doesn't know how many syllables are in a haiku, so anyway I'm getting my revenge by telling you guys this ok?

Lights come out, rocking music starts and out comes Reggie, FIST in the air, to the cheers of the weak journalists below him. As he steps into center stage they'll notice that his fist contains a PSP. He'll then SLAM the PSP into the floor. As it lays in 400 pieces on the ground Reggie will boom "Someone pass me an Xbox 360!" Then out of no where some cock dressed in one of those Master Chief suits comes out and Reggie starts fighting him and of course it's no contest, Reggie wins.

Nintendo Gaming / Reggie Retires After 15 Years

He gave us something to fight for when the company was at its lowest and all hope seemed lost. Gaming would be dead in the filthy hands of M$ and Sony today if it weren't for him. Pay your respects to a great man in this thread, the hero whose legacy stretched from Gamecube to DS, Wii, 3DS, Wii U, Switch, and beyond--to Reggie, the irreplaceable, enjoy a well-earned retirement.

From Tom Brier's channel. Remind me again what it was that Sega did that Nintendo didn't? Loved this one as soon as I heard it, and I haven't even played the game.
