Virtual Insanity #2: Sega Saturn

For this weeks column, we’ll be focusing the Sega Saturn, its games, and its likelihood of coming to VC. Chances are this forgeten console won’t be coming to the Virtual Console anytime soon, or anytime at all considering the meager size of the Wii’s internal memory. Of course, a simple fix would be to allow USB memory or flash memory expansions, but Nintendo seems to be very 1996 about this whole issue.

Okay, This Time I’m For Reals

Alright, people. I know I said I would be updating more frequently at the beginning of December. That plan ultimately fell through. But as with my recent spamming of updates on my Myspace account, I’ve sort of gotten back into the writing mood. So, to kick off the relaunch, I’ll be adding a new installment to the Virtual Insanity column tomorrow, Wednesday a music review/column, and Friday a movie review. Wish me luck, as this project means a lot to me, and whether or not anyone actually reads it, keeps me sane.

I understand that there are a lot of blogs covering the same things that I do, and will ultimately be lost in the shuffle, so I’m going to be trying a few things to differentiate myself. I’ve got a few things in the pipeworks myself, but if anyone has any suggestions on how to set this site apart, please email me: azeke799@yahoo.com
