Just adding this new channel info from the Nintendo "giga leak". Neat!

Well, looking back at this string of comments is kind of painful since I clearly hosed up this entire giveaway. Funny thing is, one of these copies is sitting in my steam account unredeemed. If you actually want a copy of Wrack and will play it soon, hit me up on twitter (@travishawks) and I will pass it over to you.
I'd say leave a comment here, but I forget to check in often, and my messages are just overflowing so I probably wouldn't notice it.
I don't know which one came first, but the Dreamcast and N64 versions are definitely a lot more similar than the arcade one. The arcade game is so freakin' hard! I finally beat the first track just a couple of years ago. As far as I could tell, the only differences between DC and N64 were that the DC had little cutscenes when you went to a new world/track, and the N64 was naturally blurry as all get out.
I loved this game! I could never really beat that two-level track towards the end. It is really unfair and kinda garbage.
Also, the Gameboy Color version is pretty lame. I randomly bought that a couple of years ago. It's just a mediocre top-down racer.
Congrats, Nick & Chessa!
I loved my time writing and editing for the site and the recent revival of reviews has been exciting to see! I love checking back in on everyone's blogs too.
Now to read my 2000 messages...
I have been bad about even visiting the site, much less writing or even commenting. When I think of it, I like to check in and see what people are up to. I will try to read more during BaD.
Hooray! Although I don't come here as often as I want, I sure loved the couple of years when I was on here constantly. I am on the cusp of writing something new for the site too, just because.
Thanks for starting this place, DiMolas!
This is awesome, Matt! You've got some great reviews up there on Amazon now too! I'll have to pick it up.
I played a good amount and had fun! I can tell I'm terrible and I haven't worked my way to not-too-embarrasing FPS skills in a while... I am going to think about this one when it's on sale. Seems like it will be going strong for a while, though.
I never finished EO IV. I want to, but it is going to take some time to remember what I was doing and what tactics I was using. I have also yet to buy the EO II remake, which I want to do, but seems silly when the perfectly great EO IV is sitting there unfinished.
Good news about your book coming along!
Woo! Looking forward to what you dive into first.
Glad you're back! Hope your sister is doing OK.
If you upload a custom puzzle, there's a high chance I will play it, rate it, and submit a terrible mii-verse post about it. INCENTIVE!
Ha!
That does look pretty fancy, but looks like a lot of fun!
I didn't get into cup-and-ball until I was in my 20s. Definitely M-rated.
Hope the results come back a big fat negative on that!
Take care of everyone/everydog.
Oh, and I like the band name too!
Great news! I was going to send you a message today to ask. Dad OK too?
Taco is 18 years old! Awesome!
I am telling you, you won't regret this purchase!
Yeah, I love old and new!
FYI - I had a cup-and-ball in college and it entertained me for hours. (I am not joking about this.)
This is sad, Matt. I hope she feels better soon.
Your dad too! You have a lot going on... :(
I loved the first two games and avoided the rest based on reviews and the fact that I figured I could just keep struggling with all the levels I had never completed.
That said, my wife and I, and then my wife, son, and I played Monkey Target and Monkey Target 2 for years. We loved both versions in their own ways and it got really competitive -- even with a 5-8 year old!
Some of the new mini-games you wrote about sound pretty good... some, not so much. Thanks for the blog!
This is great news, Nick! I can't wait to download this product to my Nintendo Wii U video game console!
Are you going to the festival? We are still trying to figure out which days and who in my family will be going and when. Don't think the 5 year old is interested, but the rest of us love it. If you're there, maybe I'll see you.
Thanks for the ticket tip!
Good luck getting a job at the new museum! I am excited for it to open. Right next door in a little over a week is the Pinball Festival too! I am stoked for all of our DFW video game coolness!
You could just be at the Pac-Man info desk all day. Nobody would be better suited.
I bid 98c for Dark Void. PROFIT!!
