I wanted to go out and do some volunteer work today. I never leave the house without some sort of Nintendo gadget in my pocket. But my DS was badly in need of charging, and I never bothered to repair or replace my worn-out GBA.

So I did all of today’s running around and volunteering with a Game Boy Color in my pocket. Appropriate considering the volunteer work was for California Extreme, an arcade & pinball game show which includes an awful lot of old games.

If anyone’s up for some retro awesomeness, I highly recommend installing ROM CHECK FAIL from www.Farbs.org. It’s available for Windows & Linux but the Linux version seems a tad crash-prone.
