Art of Nintendo Power

First up! This is a noted rough and a revision for the Prince of Persia comic. The first image was sent to NIntendo and hand noted. It was then faxed back to the artist who provided a revised rough.

I've been lucky enough to acquire... a lot... of Howard and Nester production material. No original art as of yet, but lots of Faxed Roughs, Scripts, and correspondence. Enough material that I'll be able to give you a pretty clear picture as to how the comic was made. Having said that, there are some rules ya'll are going to have to live with.

• Please don't ask me if I have X strip. I'm going to post everything I have eventually.And I will let you know when I've posted everything. Be patient  
• Any names or personal information are going to be redacted. This was a request by the source of the material. Sorry. Know that I am not redacting originals, just the digital copies.
• I'm placing a small watermark on each page to protect the validity of the "original" copies. I'm not going to be responsible for creating a counterfeit market.

Traded a hand me down chainsaw for these games. Craigslist AD. The only wanted $95 for Earthbound which is a deal but I still didn't want to spend cash. At the end of the listing they also noted they would trade for a chainsaw. Had a chainsaw that had been sitting in my shed for the last 5+ years cant even recall. I met with the seller at his place about 15 minutes from me and watched him spend a half hour trying to get the chainsaw to start which he eventually did and even test cut some logs with it. He told me he has a chainsaw addiction and this will be like his 12th chainsaw. I literally saw multiple chainsaws laying around the garage and even outback. lol. He is a picker and the SNES games were a recent "barn find" he told me. We agreed on EB and Contra III. I did not have a security bit with me but I have been doing this long enough to know what a legit EB label looks like and was not worried at all. Got it home and opened it up and cleaned it and tested fine and the battery was still good with a couple save files still on it. Honestly the whole thing was alot of fun. Beats spending money for stuff these days. Was a nice win I think. For me anyhow. The things we do.  

There is nothing.... NOTHING that could ever get me to answer a craigslist ad in which I was being instructed to BRING A FUCKING STRANGER A GODDAMN CHAINSAW

Very neat! Not sure I'd want them in my own collection, but it's quite a piece of history.

I collect weird shit so you dont have to.

I've been playing RingFit Adventure regularly. One thing I ve been seeing people question online is the accuracy or the pulse measurements. 

Tonight I decided to play using a medical grade pulseoximeter. The game tends to be within 10 bpm of actual. Which I think is pretty decent!

I love Night Stalker so much.

You love THE night stalker so much.

Yo!

Some of you already know that I have a strong passion for Nintendo Game Play Counselor Memorabilia and History.

I organized a panel discussion with former game play counselors at Portland this year. I also moderated the panel!

Fun Fact! It was the best panel this year. 

Check it out!
 

Thought this would be a fun thing to show off... in the show off section...

I struck this deal while manning my museum exhibit at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo this year.

These are the actual converse high tops used in the principal photography for the cover of Nintendo Power #3.

Yes I know they are authentic. No I cant talk about how I know that for a fact. My sources are my sources guuuuuurrrrlllll

Greetings Sexy People!

I'm taking offers on my CIC north american Turbo set.

92 of the 94 games have their manuals. The two mission manuals are Magical Chase and World Sports Competition.

Every game that did not come with a jewel case has a custom case (made with genuine Turbo cases).

I will, under no circumstance, split the set. All or nothin', kids! I'd rather keep the set than see it split.

No other games in these photos are for sale, including the TurboCD games.
