Pickups! Newly Acquired Video Games, Movies, Pokémon, Japanese Vinyl Toys and more! July-Sept 2021!
Three months goes so damn fast. I can't believe it's time again for another haul post. I was hoping to have done some other content but just haven't had the time. But I will soon! Anyway, here's the latest goodies I've picked up! A HUGE Nintendo DS/3DS haul! So I joined a new website/app that …
My Christmas Haul 2020!
As I had predicted, I didn't manage to get any other posts done between my last and this one, as I've been very busy quaffing beer and shovelling festive food into my mouth, and not doing a whole lot of much else. I have managed to tear myself away from eating and drinking for a …
Pickups! Newly Acquired Video Games and Interesting things! April-June 2020
In my previous post, I said I was going to cover a few different things on this site. One of the new things I'd like to do is post about new games or cool things that I've acquired over a period of time. I love looking back at things like that, so this feels like …

The Forgotten Starship’s 1st Anniversary! Knock-off/Bootleg Street Fighter II ‘SNES’ Controller Guile and Chun-Li Micro Playset!
Today marks The Forgotten Starship's first anniversary. It's hard to believe that it has already been a year since my first post, which was a look at the Mighty Max Kronosaur playset. Seeing as that first ever post was looking at a micro playset, it's probably appropriate to look at another micro playset, in honor …
Retrocomputing: 10 Memorable Amstrad CPC games and a Q&A with Andrew Oliver of the Oliver Twins!
Last week I talked about some of my memories of the Amstrad CPC and I briefly touched upon games. Like any gaming system there were both fantastic games and awful ones available, and I thought that for this post I would look at ten of the most memorable games I played as a kid, whether …
Nintendo Pokémon Pikachu Tamagotchi/cyber pet!
I realised the other day that Pokémon GO was not actually the first time that Nintendo or the Pokémon company had tried to peel kids off the sofa and get them to go and walk about outside. Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to the fickle little asshole that is …

Five of my Favourite Original Nintendo Gameboy Games!
The Nintendo Gameboy was a juggernaut back in the day and was the first console in the realms of portable gaming as we know it. With its strange green coloured screen it really didn't make for gamings clearest picture. But if you were in a well lit room or traveling when the sun wasn't blazing, …

The Christmas reveal post 2016!
Before I write about cheerful fun things, I feel I should acknowledge the sad death of Carrie Fisher. Initially I was in shock and in disbelief when I was first informed about it. She was a fantastic, witty woman and a strong advocate for mental health. And to so many she …
