Going for the GOLD!

Yesterday was an awesome day!  Not only was it a BIG release date for Nintendo gamers, but I also hosted my first StreetPass Long Island meet up! First thing in the morning, JDubz and I went to GameStop to pick up our pre-ordered 3DS XL consoles and NSMB2 games.  I opted to wait and trade …

The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses

On July 25th, I went down to Philadelphia, PA with JDubz to attend the Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses concert!  I was super psyched.  Philly seems to host all the cool video game related events lately.  Although there is a concert date in November for NYC, I'm not sure if I'm going to …

This week has been really great!  I've got two brand new Pokémon games to play, and they are both equally awesome!  I just started playing Pokémon Conquest, as well as a Japanese copy of Pokémon White 2.  (No, I don't speak Japanese.  But I do speak the common language of Pokémon!) I would love to …

E3DS Disappointment

I know this is a few days after the fact, but honestly I was just so pissed off that I couldn't even bring myself to write a blog until now. As I'm sure you all know, last week was the E3 Expo, where Nintendo had a few presentations to show us sneak peeks at new …

New “About Me” Page

Hm... what is it about me?  What do people want to know about the Gluxbox? I'm not entirely sure.  But most blogs and websites have an About Me page and I figured it was time for the Glux Blog to have one as well.  Of course I didn't know what to write...  it's always kind …
