Tried staring the night with some Ninja Gaiden II and wasnt able to see my secondary weapons. If I picked up the powerup that give you an orange clone ninja thing though I could see that guy only when I took damage and dissapeared from the screen. It was interesting. I figured NGIII would have a similar issue so I just jumped to another game. Any ideas on how to get around this problem? I can use my VCR, but I'd much rather do my playing on the computer since it saves me a step and has better quality results.

Spent a lot of time playing Dr. Mario after that. I know the game loops at stage 24 so my goal is to conquer stage 24 on medium. Made it to stage 23 a few times, but couldnt quite get by. Sucks since if you lose your back to stage 20.

Took a break and played a couple hours (yes hours) of Where's Waldo?. I'm quite happy to say that, like Jaws, I'll never have to play it again!! I noticed I was getting better and better at finding him so I didnt want to quit playing and have to get used to looking for his blurry, pixelated, little ass again. Luckily the hardest stage by far to find him was the second one so whenever I screwed up it was easy to reset. There were 3 mini-games that broke up the 5 searching areas. The first mini-game in the cave was super easy, but the clock you pick up randomly adds or subtracts 1 minute from the 7 minutes I had to complete the game. If it subtracted it basically meant game-over. The second mini-game was the most interesting and most frustrating. You have to navigate a small maze and collect, Waldo and his Glasses and then escape. If you touch the Evil Waldo-ish thing your time plummets so fast that there is no hope for recovery even if you only graze it for a second. It was fun figuring out how to navigate the maze, but losing time to your Evil self was much to harsh. I'm sure you'll agree that its the most exciting video I'll ever post though!

Lots of game playing tonight. More than usual if you can believe that.

Sarted it off with one of my childhood favorites, World Games. This one isnt exactly hard playing to beat since its mainly a versus game. My goal was to get the first place record in each event. I expected to have a little trouble with the Log Rolling and Sumo Wrestling, but to my surprise I got both of those records on my first attempt. Also to my surprise 3 events that I thought I'd ace right away took me several attempts each: Barrel Jumping, Slalom Skiing and Caber Toss. Barrel Jumping and Caber Toss used to be my best events so that was very unusual. Got it done though and even scored my first 99 (I think that is a perfect score!) on the cliff diving.

Followed up with some Snoopy's Silly Sports Spectacular. This was another one I played a bit as a kid. My goal was to get a medal. I ended up with a bronze medal, which for this challenge was good enough for me. The Pizza Walk and River Jump are both really annoying events so I basically had to do very well on every other event. If I could figure out how to score some points on either of those 2, I dont think a Gold Medal would be to hard.

Caveman Games! It just dawned on me that I must have really liked these ridiculous sports compilations since I played this one as a kid also. The events in this one are really goofy. Mate-Toss is probably my favorite, although Fire Making and Saber Race are also a lot of fun. Like World Games my goal was to get first in each event. Unfortunately there is no way to view all the records at once like on WG so you'll just have to take me word for it until the video goes up.

Followed up with some DK Classics. Just ran through one loop each of DK and DK Jr. That was enough to beat the default score and see all the levels. Quick and easy.

Next I tried to play some Dr.Mario and was doing very well, but then the game suddenly froze and gave me a little trouble when I went to start it again. I'll have to clean the contacts again before I give it another go.

Tried some Where's Waldo expecting another super quick victory. Turns out this game is hard as hell. I keep running out of time on the second level (of 8 I think). I did make it to the fourth area once, but that was only once. The graphics are so bad its really hard to find that jerk. Anyone have any tips for this gem?

Finished up with a lovely session of Jaws. I hate it. After finally figuring out what to do I had 4 chances to finish him off in the final battle and blew every time. You get 3 tries at it each time you get to him so I couldnt hit the damn giant shark even once out of 12 tries. It'll be a really short video when I finally figure out where exactly I'm supposed to stab him.
