Nintendo SIXTY FOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUURRRRRRGGGHHHH!!!

Friends, I believe in miracles 'cause I got my Nintendo 64 back.

But let's take it back a few steps. A few weeks ago I drive out to see my Sister off before she flies to Scotland. Before we say our goodbyes, my Grandpa brings out an enormous duffel bag. I throw it in the trunk and move it to the back of my priorities list. What a haul of sweet nostalgic loot. I had shrugged away most of this stuff as lost to time.

...but I'm glad they weren't.

 First and foremost. Holy shit, I got a bunch of my Age of Apocalypse comics back.

Look at that cover. It was the coolest comic I had ever seen.


  
    Hardcore 90's nostalgia overdose.


                                     
   How out of control are Aquaman's legs?




This bottom card of Luke Skywalker walking a tight rope is hilariously bad.




Get in the back Machop, nobody wants to see those freaky ribs. 


















Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

The only game it came with was Extreme G, but I picked up Goldeneye for $7.00 at a local shop. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get it to play on my tv. I'm a bad A/V adapter. I'll get it up and running soon.

So that's the loot, the exciting things anyway. Also a lot of unexciting things. Eight year old pay stubs? I can hook you up.
