In case you weren't paying attention to my other outlets of self-promotion, the first issue of GameSpite Quarterly is now on sale in both a standard $12 paperback edition, and a $36 special hardcover edition for all of you big spenders out there. This being the 20th anniversary of the Game Boy, the inaugural issue of GameSpite Quarterly is devoted entirely to Nintendo's famous portable system. For more about the issue itself, check out GameSpite's blog post on the subject. and/or its online table of contents. Times is tough, but $12 is a pretty good deal for 160 pages of good games journalism you won't find anywhere else in the world of print. Please pick up a copy if you can; we have a lot of great stuff planned for the upcoming issues. And because you asked for it, every issue of GameSpite Quarterly will be printed in English using actual words and sentences. Just try finding that in other magazines.
SUPER AWESOME EDIT: If you want to avoid paying blurb.com's unfriendly shipping rates, use the order code "hpfreeshipping" (without quotes, obviously) to get free shipping. Nice!

Actually, this is from last week; but with all the election stuff happening, I neglected to post a link to my article about an eight year-old Game Boy Color game. Lucky for you I realized what's truly important in this world.
Also, GameSpite head honcho Jeremy Parish is thinking about turning our first year and a half of GameSpite articles into a 200-250 page book. Go to this post and tell him that you want to buy it. I'm sure GameSpite in paper form will be perfect for both bathroom and bedtime reading. Here's a small preview of what may be the cover:
Do it for the kids.
So, I guess there's a place on the Internet where you can send money and receive a video of nightmarish fucking robots playing a song of your choice. I didn't pay for this, but I love the song. And the puppets add so much meaning.
Thanks to Nadia for informing me of this. Now I know what having a bad trip is like.
