I've got Red, Yellow, Pinball, Silver, and Gold. All in perfect working condition. :D

You can never go wrong with Pixar movies, either. Wall-E, Up, Finding Nemo, Ratatouille, Cars, Monsters Inc.. they'll never disappoint, no matter how old you are. ;D The Chronicles of Narnia (The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe/Prince Caspian) movies are really good. Good clean movies with an...

I see this car every once in a while with the license plate "L33T HAX." It makes my day every time.

What's really interesting is that Obama was only in office for two weeks when the nomination deadline was due. o_o So based off of two weeks in office, he gets the Nobel Peace prize just for his potential? People win Nobel Peace prizes for their accomplishments, not for the things they may or...

All of my Pokemon games still work perfectly -- red, yellow, silver, and gold. :D I've had them since their original releases. Out of the GBC games, I'll only occasionally play Gold; but I'd be really sad if I couldn't load the other games and get a glimpse of the old pokemon teams I had as a...

Red Pokemon Pinball Yellow Silver Gold Hey You, Pikachu! Hooray, old school. :D I wish I owned Snap and Stadium, but they were my cousin's. ;_;

My cousin and I, each lying on opposite ends of the couch with our gameboys. My family always jokingly called our Pokemon-playing "bonding," since we were silent and concentrating solely on the game. Unless, of course, something interesting happened on one of our games, like evolution music --...

Grave of the Fireflies is definitely my favorite Studio Ghibli film. It's so sad, but it's a really powerful movie. The name in Japanese, Hotaru no Haka, is actually what prompted this username of mine. :) Howl's Moving Castle also has a special place in my heart, and I hope to see Ponyo soon. :D

I owned Red and Yellow when Gold and Silver came up, so I knew about them that way, I guess. I got up early and bought Silver on the day it was released. :D

All my cards are in plastic sleeves in a binder, arranged according to type. ...That sounds more OCD than I intended. >__> I only collected around 1999, though, so I don't have a huge amount.

Basically any old game I played and loved as a kid. My very first video game was Sonic CD when I was seven years old, and I still love that game and soundtrack. So I must say that the Sonic series is my favorite. :D I also have a large nostalgic connection to the Harvest Moon series, notably...

Aww, I loved this game so much. :( I always played my cousin's, though, so I don't own it. I always had fun figuring out all the little tricks you could do to get a better picture, like luring Pikachu to the surfboard. :D I also remember being really excited over getting a good shot of Mew. I...

It actually takes quite a bit to make me mad, and I don't show it when I am. D: When I'm agitated or something, I tend to just keep to myself. Drawing is an excellent stress-reliever, and is always better when there's good music to accompany it.

I only use Firefox. :D Netscape had a good browser back in the day, but I've definitely never been a fan of IE.

Ten-point Verdana for me. :D It bothers me to type in serif fonts for some reason. >__> I also love the way Trebuchet looks; and Tahoma works nicely, too.
