The cool thing about Nintendo lately is that they have grasped the internet and release these videos loaded with their upcoming product. To me, it is just as exciting as receiving a magazine with your name on it when you were a kid. Today, Nintendo released a new Nintendo Direct video loaded with new stuff on the way from Nintendo!

Depending on the video game, certain video games can be quite rare. However, just because it is old does not mean that it is worth something. This is not the case with this certain game, which can be considered the 'Holy Grail' for NES collectors. Right now, there is a copy of a certain extremely rare game on eBay, and it's commanding a massive price.

I was never really into sports as a young kid. I enjoyed going outside, sledding on hills, throwing snowballs, etc. Even my immediate family are not really sports people, so I didn't grow up with it. What I did grow up with, was video games, and Nintendo had the BEST sports game on the original NES.

I can only think of good times when I think of the original Nintendo. The amazing games that I continue to play today are treasured memories that remind me of childhood so well. Even though the NES isn't my all time favorite game console, it is a VERY close second. Hard to believe this iconic video game system is 30 years old.

Collecting video games is just something I like to do. Searching out the gems in dirty basements, flea markets, and gaming stores. The feeling of when you find a rare title and it's marked for $2! I was given the opportunity to display a decent portion of my gaming collection, so I did, and you can check it out too!

I own a Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 and they are great consoles. Lately though, they have been sitting and collecting dust, or are Netflix machines. I used to play games online quite frequently! Racking up big scores and yelling at people online. I have really grown tired of it.

If you know me, you'll know that I am quite the avid video game player, specifically Nintendo games. I have been playing video games for the majority of my life, and it still is a major part of it. Heck, even writing this blog is directly related to my video game playing! Gaming has impacted my decisions in life, and even my career. There was one Christmas morning that little did I know, would def

I knew this was going to happen, I really did. When I saw Skylanders and Disney Infinity, I thought it was kind of childish. You buy the video game, then you have to buy toys to play the game! Well, they've got me there, that's pretty genius. Release one game and a bunch of toys to go with it, not a bad plan. I chose to ignore it. Then, Nintendo jumped aboard the toy train.

The Big N takes the fight to unlicensed Game Boy emulators by filing a patent for its own.

After fan demand, Nintendo is re-making a Zelda game that is beloved by many that have played the Nintendo 64. When Ocarina of Time was announced for 3DS, it basically 'made' me buy a 3DS. When that became a success, fans wanted more remade Zelda, and that is exactly what they are getting.

If Pierce Brosnan was horrible at playing GoldenEye, it should be no surprise that Mike Tyson got rocked fighting Mike Tyson, the final boss of Mike Tyson's Punch Out!! for the NES.

Something I have always wanted to do in my life is voice overs. I have been able to attain that goal somewhat by being in radio. If I had the chance to voice act in a video game or Pixar movie, that would be Cloud 9. Well, I work at a radio station, I have resources! Might as well tackle one of my favorite voiced prologues!
