There are reviews of it and a quick search lists places that supposedly have it.
Yeah, the Lapboard exists, the console does not.

I know the console does not. The drama when they messed with HardOCP was a big factor in them shooting themselves in the foot and Striesanding themselves

What are you talking about? The Sega Neptune did eventually make it to the market. And in fact so did the Phantom (Thank god it didn't sell well though).
I feel old when talking to anyone my age yet too inexperienced to effectively talk to anyone older. Life is grand that way.

I think that's the case with all of these.

I blog about games and art. Usually both at once. Check it out at your own risk.

I liked this article and the Video Games Movies That Almost Were threads so much I spread them to a couple other boards I frequent. I read the coolest stuff on Racketboy's main site, then I get stuff like this too.
