I teach art classes.  I teach comics classes to college students at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.  I also teach jr high and high school kids at various places- everything from animation to painting.  I teach part time and make art the rest of the time.

Yeah. I almost always kind of look villainous/mean.  Serves me well as a teacher.

Did the old Ultra Games TMNT game come out on Wii's Virtual Console?  So, maybe there's a chance for the GB games.  Who knows?

Ceric- we had a talented photographer.  I'm a goblin.

And Ian- yeah, I wasn't satisfied with the NES version, and the chances of this ever appearing on virtual console are so slim, so I'm stoked to get it.  Plus, this is kind of the game Miyamoto wanted to make when he made Donkey Kong, so it feels like a really integral part of Nintendo history.

Ha ha.  Yeah, she also happens to be a very pretty girl.  Out of my league.  I'm a lucky guy.

My fiancee just surprised me today with this Nintendo Popeye arcade cabinet!  She's crazy!  I love this game.  It's like ultimate Donkey Kong.  The animations are great, it's super challenging, and the music is really catchy.  I've always wanted an arcade cabinet of this!

I don't want Cafe to play Blu-Rays.  I have a Blu-Ray player, and I hardly use it.  Streaming is where it's at.  As long as Cafe has Netflix and other future streaming services, I'll be happy.

The marks wipe right off my system as well.  I think I'll keep a piece of felt or something in between screens when it is closed from now on, just to be safe.

Is this story on Kotaku for real or bogus?

1. They call in "Nintendo Club" in the headline.
2. They say you earn "stars" not coins.


-Okay, I see the original source is MCV- so does this only apply to the UK Club Nintendo?

I bought it for my brother-in-law brand new 2 years ago for $15.  He's never played it.

The lack of Smash Bros in the lineup makes me hope they're working on an Project Cafe HD remix with tight online and maybe a few extra characters.


I know I'm dreaming, but I want it badly.
