QUICK NOTE: When I say "Regardless of how good he thinks he is or is not at shmups" (in regards to MrSparkle), I'm referring to him often understating his skill and thinking he isn't that great even though he's quite good at shmups. I realized upon a second listen that it's possible I came off as an ass, saying he thinks he's better than he is. -Rob

Anyway, it's three dollars if you wanna play the Nintendo 64.
