I know you did this for fun. I did that all the time as a kid as well. Also, I am very happy to know that you have a Vectrex... you are friggen awesome dude.

Did you know you have an infinite loop bug in your game though? You show it in the video as well. You should really have people roll dice to go forward or back (treat it like another turn) because otherwise.. Atari 5200 controller, go back 5, you go to warp zone, go ahead 10 - You land on the CD-I Zelda game, Go back 5... Atari 5200.. see?

well, to give it out I would make folds in like on a monopoly board. I have made a board game before and that normally works for me. To ship it, I would put it in a large flat rate us postal box.  To pick the winner, you should come up with a really hard trivia question that the average gamer would not know, then pick the person who is right. If more the one person is right, then use random.org to to put them in a random order, then use it to pick the the winner. I hope my comment was helped!

@mcrosco1 Haha, thanks, but I meant make copies of it to send out to my subscribers

Wow, this looks like you and Noah put a lot of work into this, and it looks great. It truly does look like a board game meant for true gamers. The only thing that bothered me was the trivia card saying that in the real Super Mario Bros. 2 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels) the Poison Mushrooms are purple, which is only true for the All-Stars remake. In the original Famicom version it was the same color as the normal Mushrooms and it was hard to tell them apart. I think the eyes were different

I just finished a game that took me a whole month to finish. But the result is awesome

I would kill for one of these.

[zacharybaringer]

[mcrosco1]

@TreasureChestReviews oh, thats much easier! All you have to do it put it in a copier and copy each part indivisualy and then tape them a togeather. Do that 500+ times and your done... jk:)
