1990 is Calling. It Wants its Games Back

1990 is Calling. It Wants its Games Back 04/15/2005 04:43 AM
In a "haven't they got anything better to do" case, New York FBI agents have seized a haul of more than 60,000 pirated games... for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Yes, that's right, the console of choice - for some - 25 years ago. The AP story refers to pirated copies of consoles themselves, but reads like it means the games.

Four people were arrested in the crackdown, trying to sell games like Donkey Kong, Super Mario Brothers, Duck Hunt and Baseball. Ah, the classics. Prosecutors say the defendants agreed to sell the games to FBI agents who were willing to distribute the games in Manhattan and the Midwest.

It's claimed the group had imported as many as 280,000 pirate versions in four months last year. Nintendo told the FBI that individuals and companies copy the video games and sell the pirated versions throughout the world, costing the company millions of dollars in lost revenue annually - despite the fact they don't make the machines (or, most likely, actually sell the games) any more. Could it be to do with the fact that some of the "classic" titles are getting a rebirth on new handheld machines? Surely not.

As a Marylander, Alan Keyes knows next to nothing about the state he's trying to represent in the U.S. Senate, Illinois; only 22 percent of Illinois voters have a favorable impression of him; fewer than half of Republican voters in the state support him; reporters love him because he creates a bizarre spectacle nearly every time he opens his mouth -- from babbling about "smelly toads" to publicly insulting Dick Cheney's daughter during a homophobic tirade. Along with being a beyond-back-benching last resort candidate for the Illinois GOP, Keyes is up against rising star Democratic golden boy Barack Obama. Beating Obama would be no easy feat, even for a viable candidate.

2. Always, always be moving. This is most true in multiplayer. Don't hang around waiting, because even though you have the sniper rifle, they might have the shotgun. You're just asking to be sneaked up on. This is a great technique to apply to the office. Walking around, everyone sees that you are there, but you always look busy, on your way to doing something else. They can't pin you down to ask you to do stuff. Plus, it's just good exercise.
