The bunnies are boxed up and will be in the mail tomorrow. They’re just too neat not to send. I hope they are enjoyed. In related bunny news, I had a bid of a bad wardrobe day at work on Monday. In the morning I spilled coffee all over myself. Went home and changed at lunch. On desk, I somehow found the sharpest point of the “world’s largest reference desk” and ripped a giant hole in pants. BUT! Since the fabric is still in good shape, I now have visions of smaller pin striped bunnies. Who wants one? I’ve got the urge to craft today.
In comedy, I’ve been reading xkcd. If you’re not familiar with it, and you like geeky random math references along with decent social commentary, I suggest you check it out. Today’s comic should garner a chuckle out of most of you.
In gaming, we played a little bit of Super Mario World last night (courtesy of Virtual Console. Even though sales are slowing down, this is still genius on Nintendo’s part). I say a little bit because after an hour of trying to beat a board, we realized we’d already beaten that one, and so moved on to the next. However, we didn’t fare to well on that one either. I guess we’ve past our platformer prime? After giving up we downloaded Toe Jam and Earl. Man, that game is still as awesome as it ever was. Seriously.
Lately, we’ve taken to playing Clubhouse Games while at restaurants. It passes the time nicely and I can now destroy Corey at Rummy. This is one of those “must have” games for the DS. It’s wi-fi enabled, so you can play with friends or strangers, though I hear strangers only like to play darts. You can also set up a local wireless with up to 8 other DSs, making it a great party/waiting at the airport game. I’ll end my commercial now.
In bizzaro DS news, Japan does it again with Face Training. While yes, this will be a niche game, the noteworthy aspect is the camera.
Otona No DS Kao Training, or Face Training, includes a camera that plugs into the Game Boy Advance slot on the Nintendo DS and videos your face as you play the game. [game|life]
So now we have a cute, tiny, ultraportable device that is wi-fi capable, voice chat capable, and video capable. Man, I hope someone runs with this one, and soon! Pokemon cell phone now includes video chat? How neat would that be?!?
