TheClassyGamer Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Even though all this went down, I am very hurt to lose a friend. Mike is the one that lost a friend. What you lost, you're better off without. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thevnaguy Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Just found a cause to donate the money to from the GoFundMe campaign that was done for me. Team Pixelboy is doing a series of budget titles (17 games @ 29.95 each) for the ColecoVision that can be preordered for 9 dollars, this 9 dollars goes direct to NanoChess for his family (wife diagnosed with lung cancer, baby had to be delivered prematurly). I plan on buying a couple of the games myself, but I have PM'd Nanochess (Oscar, who is awesome in the ColecoVision Community!) directly so I can send the proceeds from the GoFundMe to him and his family. Here is the post by Team Pixelboy if you want to read about everything. I just wanted to let all now where the money is now going http://atariage.com/forums/topic/252786-team-pixelboy-news-bulletin-may-19th-2016/ 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btbfilms76 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Luck of the draw that I picked "Ruiner" for the game we played at the Jag Bar, who would have known. Ruiner.... unbelievable that that's the name of the game we played. Ruined business, ruined friendships, ruined name in the retro gaming world. Just when I think this is over, it just keep on going. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagnaRyuu Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Anyone remember what happened in real life to the main character of the film adaptation? If you are talking about the actor who played the character in the second movie, Jonathan Brandis, he went on to star in both SeaQuest tv series, The "Ladybugs" movie for disney that starred Rodney Dangerfield, and few other things. but sadly he lost the battle with his personal demons and committed suicide in 2003 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cernex Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) Anyone remember what happened in real life to the main character of the film adaptation? If you're talking about the kid from the third film (aka the "Free Willy" kid), he's still around and acting. However, he's almost unrecognizeable.

I recommend keeping your fond memories of The Never Ending Story by not getting out more because the other two movies won't blow your balls off but they may need a good debuffing after. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second wasn't too bad. The third on the other hand is a bit painful to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atm94404 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 The second wasn't too bad. The third on the other hand is a bit painful to watch. But the third one is so bad it's good. Plus it stars a post-Pitfall commercial and pre-Tenacious D Jack Black as the villain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
