Well, I hope everyone had a laborious Labor Day weekend. I did, doing a little bebop up to Baylor to see my sister, where luckily the basketball team didn't attempt to kill me. That'd be a cool new tagline for Baylor as a school: Come here or we'll kill you (we mean it). And then after that, I went down to San Antonio where I got some quality time with Willy Ed and his band of delinquent slubberdegullions. For everyone who thinks I made up the word slubberdegullion, stuff this in a sack and boil it. I don't know why I'm writing any of this because it generally bores my butt off when I'm reading about what someone did over the weekend. So, I'll spice it up a little bit and say that Will and I killed a unicorn while I was down there. We're still arguing over who gets to keep the horn.
Back like two years ago, there was this Super Nintendo game that I was really into called AeroBiz, where you simulated running your own airline. It's a game that would only appeal to autistic children and myself. That's not a knock on us as a game playing group, but you don't see lots of 9 year olds gathered around the Super Nintendo, exclaiming "I need some runwyas at the Cairo airport ASAP or Aero Booty is screwed!" Anyway, I was playing it today some on my SNES emulator and it's just as good as I remember it. But if you're to do a sim game based on being the CEO of an airline, why not do it for all sorts of stuff? Here are a few scenarios I'd like to see played out in games for the Super Nintendo:
If people thought Grand Theft Auto was good, just wait until those blockbusters come out, especially if you could get some super immersive 3d crap going. Also, those games would need a game pad, kind of like Dance Dance Revolution or Track and Field for Nintendo. I don't currently have the resources to make these games a reality, but I'm sharing them so all of us will know what's up when Microsoft comes out with Corndog Tycoon or Sim WigFactory.

my name is Don and i also loved the thought of being a CEO of an airline, i cant find it though for an emulator, so if you know where i could, that would be way cool. I had a lot of fun playing the game in my youth.
