Fixed the scripting problems breaking nearly every page on this site..

April 26, 2006
I regret to inform you all that Glass Joe from Punch Out has died. I have written my tribute to him.

The site is now seven years old. Hard to believe. Expect an update within the next week.

March 21, 2006
I added a viewer submitted story to the games that piss me off section and a partially finished FAQ I've written for Remote Control. I'm moving out to the country in the next week and will  be without internet, so I might not be able to update anything for awhile. But considering this is the first real update in about a year, I don't think anyone will be too heart broken.

January 15, 2006
Apparently there were some problems viewing the site in Internet Explorer. I think I fixed them.

November 21, 2005
Most of the site is working now. I'll fix what's left tomorrow.

I
've found the problem with the php, although I'm not sure why its a problem. For years I've used the tag 

<? include("top.txt"); ?>

to tell the web browser where to get the site's layout for every page. All of a sudden that command stopped working, but removing the quotations and changing it to

<? include("top.txt"); ?>

fixes the problem.  In other words, I have to go through every php file on this site and make that change and it's going to take awhile.  I have made this alteration to about 50% of the pages on this site, so tha smackdown is once again viewable... at least half way.  I will finish the rest as soon as I have time.

We are having serious problems.

October 27, 2005
I wish I still had the drive to update this website like I used to.

June 8, 2005
Modified the layout. Still working on it.

May 28, 2005
New poll and a new link. The link section is in desperate need of updating. Way too many sites on there are now dead.

Smackdown GT turned 6 years old last month. I just can't believe it's been that long since I started this site. You can't stay sixteen forever I guess.

May 16, 2005
Wow, it's been a long time since I updated and even now I have nothing to add. Since my last post I've started playing blackjack online and have come into a bit of money, so I spend most of my time now trying to make more money. I've set up a site about it, and that is the point of this update, to advertise it..

Fixed Some Stuff

March 29, 2010

I haven't looked at this site in forever. Unbelievably, it will turn 11 years old next month. Time flies. I noticed all the php was broken, and some other stuff, but I think it's all fixed now. I don't know how long the site has been like this, but it should be more readable now.

Reading over this site for the first time in years makes me wanna redesign it and do some updates, but I'm not so sure that will happen. I'm not too familiar with modern html, and I don't know if I even have anything else to say about the NES. Do people even visits websites like these anymore?

Anyway, hopefully the whole site doesn't break again for no reason.

This Site is Fucked Up

November 11, 2005

The whole site is pretty much down right now and I don't know why. All my php files (which make up about 90% of the site) stopped working a couple weeks ago and at the moment I have no idea how to fix this.  Nothing was changed, they all just stopped working one day.  I contacted JT, the host of smackdown gt, and he's not sure what's wrong either, so at the moment I'm not sure what to do.

If you think you have a solution to my problem please send me an email.  Otherwise I'm not sure what tha smackdown's future is.

NES Resurgance

June 8, 2005

New Layout

I accidentally deleted the old page, so I'm putting the new look up early. I rewrote all the code to make it look normal in high res, and went ahead and changed up a few things while I was at. Thank god I used php to do the site or else this transition would be a nightmare. I still need to redo the look of some sections, and change a few colors here and there. I'll get it done.

Oh yeah, I did it all in notepad bitches.

Letter of the Moment

Finally beat that damn Karate Kid game. God that thing sucks. Punching is the most useless thing ever unless you have drum punches, and unless you have a crane kick, those guys with the spears will nearly kill you from eating your health bar alive.

The ending sucked too, but it was still worth it to see Mr. Miyagi's gay winking at the end. I guess the people who made this game were too afraid to put their names in for a credit screen, since they thought people would find out where they live and beat them up after they found out who they were.

What the fuck is Error?
August 17, 2004

Who is Error? If you don't know then you've obviously never visited www.nesplayer.com. Simply put, Error is an odd character in Zelda 2 that has gained cult like status thanks to Mike at NESplayer. When you speak to him in the game he replies "I am Error," which is a kinda odd thing to say. So what's the deal? Is it a programming mistake or is that just his name?

Well a viewer of the site (Alexander Ryan) decided to send Nintendo an email in hopes of an official answer. Here's what he got back:

Hi,

The character's name is "Error." It's not a programming mistake, but is the actual name of the character. I guess you could say that it's a joke done by one of the game's designers.

So that's their story, but who really knows. I imagine whoever answers these emails is not very high up on the Nintendo totem poll and probably just turned to the closest person to him for an answer.
