Goodbye, 3DS eShop

Today, March 27 2023, is the day that we bid adieu to the 3DS and Wii-U eShop. While I'm much more familiar with the 3DS eShop than the Wii-U's, it's still a sad, sad day for Nintendo fans everywhere. To celebrate the life of the 3DS eShop, I'm goi…

King of Lames

Yu-Gi-Oh used to be so simple. For the first few years it was a battle of who could bring out the strongest monster and blast the opponent's monsters to bits and win. I played the game a lot with my cousins and friends in middle school and had a fre…
