Jeff's new haircut looks boss.
Yeah, he should have done it at the start of summer, though. : P
He looks so young and chipper now.


Holy crap, Jeff isn't going to buy arcade cabinets... He's going to buy California Extreme itself!

3DSXL looks freaking huge. I think it ate the charge cradle. Though, I do admit, the screen size is pretty nice. I feel bad for foreign regions, though. No charge cable packed in? That freaking sucks.
 
Hmm, that is a nice size and shape I have to say. You guys think it's worth it if you have not owned any DS before?

If you've never owned a DS? Probably. The DS has an awesome backlog (though some games are harder to come by these days) while you wait for the 3DS' library to round out a bit more.

On a side note, I really hate the NSMB series' music. Those 'WAH, WAHs' got old fast even in the first game.

Nah thats just how much he wants a Smash TV cab
 
I feel nervous walking around with $100 on me.

Haven't hit the medium or higher stakes at the poker room yet, eh? :)

You just need to be a lot more aware of your surroundings at all times, plan your routes carefully, make sure you have plenty of gas in your car beforehand, etc.
 
Does dave know about the problems with video playback on the site, I'm using chrome and the videos will not play, just a black screen. I've seen several others comment on this problem as well. Could someone with twitter tweet him about this?
 
So, I'm watching the Ecstasy of Order documentary about finding the best player at Tetris.
At one point, they play an old video clip of Thor Aackerlund, winner of the Nintendo World Championships, at what looks like some gaming trade show.
And guess who's playing him? .... a very young Jeff Gerstmann.
So good!

This is crazy. Eventually we're going to discover that Jeff is a vampire like Nicholas Cage, and we'll be finding photos of him playing Tennis for Two and Space War.

Someone actually emailed this on a bombcast with Jeff being not fully sure if it was him or not. LOL

Cool to see this was actually verified.
 
I totally forgot about that. It wasn't that long ago when it popped up on the bombcast. I'd say it's within the last 6 months or so.


Dude looks freaking the same. Though, he doesn't wear that amazing jacket anymore.
 
Didn't he joke about wearing a jacket to trade shows to look like you're supposed to be there and that you aren't actually fooling anyone with that? I'm pretty sure I'm not tripping and/or making this up.
It's bizarre to actually see where that came from.

Amazing, I remember this from the Bombcast, and was hoping to find it somewhere.
