Mailbag: Mailbag: Ryan Davis, Surrounded By Games

@kagato: we had 8-track tapes, we had VHS (video tapes), we had cassette tapes. Of course we'd call them "game tapes". Makes sense.

Ah fair enough, just never understood calling something a tape when it had no tape in it, we also had 8 tracks, VHS, Betamax and audio tapes but never heard anyone calling them anything but Carts or Cartridges. Did you call them that yourself?

Grandia 2 extended play. Need it.

@DJJoeJoe: Someone probably already told you this, but he is rearranging icons on his iPhone/iPod Touch in iTunes.

Yup I want more coverage of at least the games Ryan was putting aside cause they could be rad. Live Stream or quick looks or whatever the fuck...

What game is Brad using a talent calc for? or... whatever the heck is going on there. Bottom left, icons look like talents/skills and right icons look like the different tree tabs. Or something.

That's itunes, those are iphone apps.

arranging apps on his iPhone in iTunes. Not quite as exciting.

@Chewii101 said:

@DJJoeJoe: pretty sure thats iTunes.

@Sogeman said:

isnt that just itunes?

edit: well, answered already

@JJOR64 said:

That is iTunes my friend. You can change around the apps on your phone through your PC/Mac if you want.

@Chavtheworld said:

@DJJoeJoe: Just looks like iOS to me...

@AREYOULOCO said:

@DJJoeJoe That's his iPhone home screen dude.

@Gr1mace said:

@DJJoeJoe: He's on the Apps screen on iTunes. Probably syncing his iPhone or iPad or iPod Touch. So some such.

@DJJoeJoe:

Looks like an Iphone5 emulator.

He can't decide what level 69 Druid talents he wants for his Enhancement Lock.

Actually this more-over looks like the iPhone screen, if you look at it closely, he's researching stuff about the iPhone to me.

It's itunes. The iphone app tab where you pick what apps to sync and their arrangement.

@Savutano said:

@DJJoeJoe: That's an iphone/ipod home screen menu, eh. He's using Itunes...

@MichaelJAMoran said:

@DJJoeJoe: That's just iTunes, duder. It's the screen you use to re-arrange your icons.

@DJJoeJoe: Looks like he's in iTunes :)

HUH?

Why don't I get random packages with cool old videogames? >:

@dennisthemennis: Nah, I used a photo and shooped it into shape.

Hahahaha, Brad's all like "fuck this nonsense!" at the end.

@gyozilla: Thanks for putting this together. Out of curiosity, how many of these games are in the wiki, particularly with box art?

@kagato said:

Why do people refer to the NES and SNES carts as tapes? I grew up with the NES and never once heard anyone calling them that here, is it a US thing?

Might be. I know back when I was a kid, we used to call them "Nintendo tapes." Good times. Good times.

Ryan Davis: men wanted to be him, women wanted he Famicom tapes.
