Nice. Any chance you're using it on a standard-definition T.V.? I was wondering if the games are still playable. I noticed on a few Xbox 360 games that were optimized for HD that I couldn't read the text.
I took my HD-TV back because I REALLY didn't like how incredibly bad the non-high-def stuff looked on it since I have a very large VHS & DVD collection.
BTW, how is Epic Mickey 2? I've been hearing bad stuff about it from critics, but at the same time from a select few that I know liked the first game I've heard that it's good.
You're in luck.....I AM playing it on a standard-definition TV. The games are still playable and easy to read. I was playing Nintendo Land with my son over the weekend. He was using the game pad and I the TV. Everything worked just fine. While playing New Super Mario Bros. U, I usually just use the gamepad anyway. It's just like having an even bigger Nintendo DSi. Haven't played Epic Mickey 2 yet. I bought it for my fiancee and have been waiting for her to crack it open. I really enjoyed Epic Mickey. I think that this one will be just fine too.

I went into Wal-Greens today just to use the bathroom while I was in that part of town, and as I walked by the Christmas section, they had an Atari Flashback 4 console, brand-new, for 75% off. $9.99 for 75 games! What's funny, is that they had an Atari Flashback 3, with less games on it, for $40 because it was a regular item, not a Christmas item. That was a steal! And it was the last one on the shelf!

PSP - TMNT Nice! Tenchu and God of War are always great games. TMNT I haven't played. Does it hold up against the likes of the TMNT Arcade Game and Turtles in Time?

I messed around with Tenchu a little bit...it was OK. I remember playing the original on the PS2(?) and I loved it. I'll have to see if this one grows on me. TMNT is based off the 2007 animated movie which I loved. I played the PS2 version and really liked it. So far this one is really good too.

My copy of Namco Museum 50th Anniversary for PS2 that I got last week wouldn't read. So I took it back and in return I was able to get Crash Bandicoot: Wrath of Cortex and Midway Arcade Treasures (vol. 1). (There really wasn't a lot to choose from that I didn't already have.)

Got my tax return money, and decided to use $100 of it to blow on games. Here's what I got: -Astal (Saturn) -Bucky O' Hare (NES) -Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow (GBA) -Contra Advance: The Alien Wars EX (GBA) (Won an auction for only $4.05 and free shipping!) -Ninja Gaiden: The Dragon Sword (DS) -Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PS1) I also got the Iron Man: Armor Wars trade paperback collection (collect Iron Man #225-#232). So all in all, a pretty good haul.
