Populous was one of those games that burned into my retinas and after a while I could play the game in my sleep. Looks like EA is taking a fresh look at some of its older franchises and making sure they have their trademarks in order before they get dusted off.
Just this month, EA filed trademarks for the Bullfrog Productions-originated properties Populous and Theme Park, and the EA action games Wing Commander and Road Rash.
Where's my Populous Movie EA ?!@#
I'd like to see the Wing Commander franchise dig itself out of the stink that was the Wing Commander movie; I walked out of that one.

Super Stars Wars for 800 points
The first of a series of star wars games for the SNES Super Star Wars has finally made the long trip onto the Wii virtual console. Originally released mid 1992; the game featured Luke and his journey from Mos Elis to the trench run on the death star. From what I remember when I first bought the game in 92, it was not the most forgiving game and several levels had its share of bottomless pits to stumble into. All three games shared a similar art style and pulled from the Star Wars universe pretty successfully.

GFGames takes a humorous look at the process of hooking up your old NES system. Reminds me of the old disney "How to" cartoon series staring goofy from the 40's & 50's.

Metal Nintendo Repair Mario Sign
A pressed metal sign of "Nintendo Repair Mario" that was made in 1992. The auction doesn't say anything about its size but from the photo you can see its sitting on top of some wooden tv trays. Tv trays like that are around 19" wide, so I'm guessing the sign is a pretty good size. Something neat to hang on the wall in the game room. Bidding is only at 5 bucks with day or so left to bid.

Video of Nintendo's first Duck Hunt game released in 1976. The game was projected onto a wall where you used a realistic looking battery powered light rifle to shoot the ducks. The duck hunt idea was later retooled and released onto the Nintendo Entertainment System.
