My mom and heck, my entire family, are avid gamers so this would never happen to me.

Don't need a holster if you never stop shooting.

I took out all the posters as a kid and put 'em on my walls. When I started wanting to bring girls around, I took them all down.

Except the Skies of Arcadia poster. That thing is never leaving my wall

You know they say that all demons are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Pyro Jack and you can see that statement is not true, hee-ho!
I have a couple of issues from the NES days. Then a friend of mine from high school gave me all of his NES-era Nintendo Power magazines back in '99 because his mother was just gonna throw them out. So now I have the Power. Nintendo Power. They're cool. :)

I still have all of mine intact.

Also people have been scanning in all the Nintendo powers ever and the posters(which are cleaned up without the creases). You can print up the posters at staples or Kinkos.

You're already dead
The scoring system they used for popular games each month on each Nintendo console was stupid. SMB and Zelda topping the charts, every loving time. The section for games played between each region, doubly so.

I gave them away to children.

We didn't get Nintendo Power over here but we did get Club Nintendo which actually just copy pasted from Nintendo Power.
