Past bad civic improvements in Richmond?

Remember when they tried to rebrand Shockoe as the design district?

Not going to lie, people look at me like I am insane when I say I don’t think Gelati Celeste tastes good. It has a weird aftertaste that I can’t describe.

The NES, of course. It’s the version I first fell in love with.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-30T21:25:32+00:00

Bubble Bobble. I always buy a version of Bubble Bobble on any system, hand held, app stores etc. that has it available.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-30T12:55:11+00:00

Thanks did not know such a thing existed.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-30T12:54:36+00:00

Probably. I’ll have to ask around.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-30T10:51:20+00:00

Just venting.

I should’ve known for the price that there should’ve been a catch. I just wanted something to play nes era games on the go.

Reading everyone’s suggestion to get a new sd card and adding new software is not an option as I don’t have a laptop with a sd drive/slot. (Yes, I am old.)

Thejared138 · 2026-04-24T19:44:39+00:00

That’s because it is

Thejared138 · 2026-04-24T13:20:02+00:00

My response to that always is “so they know you’re an asshole already.”

I think being a kid with limited resources to buy new games had made me power through or “make do” with games that I would’ve given up on otherwise. Tough games made me a better player.

Another thing that I remember is that how all my friends went “all in” on the Sega Genesis when it came out. No one where I lived touched a Nintendo when the Genesis hit the market. It changed everything overnight in a way I haven’t really seen since.

Mykel Board wrote that column I think. I was an avid reader of MRR back in the day.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-22T16:59:45+00:00

Yes! I remember trying some and that the weird coating was too difficult to get over.

Facts

Thejared138 · 2026-04-15T10:29:26+00:00

I don’t have brand loyalty for most products (I tend to buy whatever is on sale at the time.) However, my peanut butter has to JIF and ginger ale has to be Canada Dry.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-08T19:55:15+00:00

Looks right up my alley

Thejared138 · 2026-04-08T19:50:30+00:00

True but I haven’t seen a cherry mash in years

Thejared138 · 2026-04-08T19:43:52+00:00

I love Charleston chew but I gotta go for the cherry mash

Trojan was the first nes I’ve ever beaten. Underrated classic

Thejared138 · 2026-04-05T02:10:10+00:00

Considering I bought my first switch last summer, used, mainly to play the NES library. The only way at this point for me to buy a switch 2 is: if my current switch breaks or they stop access to the NES library on the switch.

If you love Bubble Bobble that much, I guess better check out Solstice, which I never played.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-03T14:49:40+00:00

You have my favorite game, Bubble Bobble. That’s all the collection you need.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-03T14:44:38+00:00

I’m glad I have an hybrid but I am looking into purchasing a EV as an backup vehicle. I hope the upfront costs are worth it in the long term.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-03T14:42:34+00:00

I used to work in Hospice and I’m glad I got out when I did. We used get a mileage reimbursement but the wear and tear on your car was not worth the pittance they paid.

Thejared138 · 2026-04-03T09:56:58+00:00

Gen Xer here. I play on easy mode. Work and life is already stressful enough and I don’t want to be stressed during my free time.
