The Best $10 We've Ever Spent (Mature Content 17+)



The Best $10 We've Ever Spent (Mature Content 17+)

If there is one thing you have probably noticed about Pop and I, mostly me, is that we are HUGE Nintendo fans. I think Pop is more of a Microsoft guy in general, but this past year, Nintendo has been the company to offer the type of games we enjoy playing on a regular basis.

Recently, there was a Nintendo Direct, which finally announced the release of the NEW 3DS XL for the United States. Alongside that excitement, not to mention the mic drop from Nintendo surprising us with the Majora's Mask NEW 3DS XL, the release of popular Wii titles for Wii U owners to download was announced. Amongst these is one of my favorites, Super Mario Galaxy 2, which for a limited time was only $10.

You can't really pass that up.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is a gorgeous game that offers the nostalgia of Super Mario 64 with a "out of this world" (see what I did there?) feel. 

Even though it isn't fresh off the boat, it is still a super fun game to play through. Especially when you are two adults who discuss adult things whilst collecting colorful star bits and adventuring atop adorable Yoshi. 

So sit back, relax, and watch us take on the world of Super Mario Galaxy 2! Don't forget to check us out through our social media pages. If you have any suggestions, let us know!

It Happened: Mario Kart Just Got Cooler



It Happened: Mario Kart Just Got Cooler

Downloadable content is pretty much a given with nearly every game that releases, so it comes to no one's surprise that Mario Kart 8 has sported its own season pass. The nice thing about this season pass is that it is only $12 and it comes with a decent amount of content. Releasing in two packs, people who purchase the season pass will get a total of:
  • 16 tracks
  • 8 Cars
  • 6 characters
Pop and I obviously got the season pass and the first pack does not disappoint because it includes our most favorite character, Link. In line with the Zelda theme, there is a Hyrule Cup Grand Prix, which has a pretty epic track. 

Check out the first two races in the Hyrule Cup as we play through the first pack of the DLC and make sure to stay tuned for the rest! Look below to connect with us via social media and as always, feel free to suggest some titles folks!

Arcade Block - October 2014




This month’s Arcade Block wasn’t the greatest, but still pretty cool. From Mario to Street Fighter to Half-Life, this block has it.


Here we go!




1. Portal Key Cap

2. Notes from  Hyrule magnetic whiteboards


3. Mario Kart Pull Back Racer


4. Street Fighter themed Pixel Bricks

5. T-Shirt of the Month - Freeman’s Crab Shack

6. Arcade Certified Product of the Month - Plush Flying Squirrel Mario or Luigi

He looks so angry.

Sorry for the short review. Hopefully next month’s block is better. This was definitely not worth the $30 this month.


May the Force Be With You!
