E3 2013: Nintendo
WARNING: LARGE WALL OF TEXT APPROACHING
Full
disclosure. I’m a Nintendo fanboy. When I was younger you couldn't have
paid me to have a Sony or Microsoft game product under my roof. I’m not
as bad as I used to be. Hell, I even own a PS2 and Xbox 360 now.
However, when push comes to shove, I will back Big N to the grave.
Naturally this means that I was super excited for the recent Nintendo
Direct that came out of E3. At first I was a little skeptical with the
fact that Nintendo was eschewing the traditional big show, but after all
has been said and done, I’m very pleased with the result.
Anime Boston 2013 Cosplay
Okay so I forgot to mention in my little blurb that I enjoy watching anime as well. This past weekend I went to Anime Boston which is, as you probably can guess, an anime convention! I have been to this convention for the past 3 or 4 years now and every year I find something even more fun and new in the world of anime. What I love about Anime Boston is that there is something for everyone. Even if you do not know a lot about anime, there are panels about the history of certain things in the anime culture, panels about video games, about cosplaying, about stage fighting, and just about anything else you can think of. If none of that is your scene you can always just walk around the artist’s alley and dealer’s room and see all of the cool merchandise and artsy things that people make by hand. Still if you aren’t that into artwork, then the costumes that people dress up in (and put the effort into making) are ALWAYS awesome to witness. This year I actually remembered to take some pictures of some of my favorite cosplayers, and thought it would be really fun and cool to share the pictures with other people too!
