Cryptic telegram of the week;

String theory


All well and good postulating the existence of ten dimensions, but without knowing the question it's hard to say whether the answer is valid. The question may have been; How long is a piece of string?

Speak to the Nintendo marketing department. I didn't name the damn thing. A DS can't play 3DS games.

I wish I still had mine. I still have my gameboy pocket, though. With a copy of pokemon blue.

I may actually play it again someday. It's been over 10 years.

I really wasn't sold on the 3D thing, and with bills to pay I couldn't justify spending money on something I'd never use. The only thing I don't like about the 2DS is the lack of clamshell folding, but I have a protective case for it. I should probably sell my DS Lite.

I just think the idea is stupid.

I mean;
