In this episode we take a look at the MikesArcade.com Reproduction Nintendo Buttons. We compare them to the old MikesArcade replacement buttons, and original Nintendo buttons found on their arcade games from the 1980's.

The buttons can be purchased on MikesArcade.com here:

When will your shirts be back in stock? My homeboy Chance is supposed to hook me up.

We are actually working on a new shirt, with a totally classy design without our logo on it, based on an old Canadian arms of the Dominion shield from the late 1800s, complete with beavers and the whole shebang. It's gonna be slick.

Your intro needs to be 90% shorter.
Once you've seen it more than once, it feels like a long commercial you have to sit through to get to the content.

We had this exact discussion today as we published the video. Its extra painful if its a shorter video such as this one. I am actively working on a sting version of the intro, which may just replace what we've been using for all videos going forward.
