Thursday sales: Stonewall Kitchen and Nintendo DS (and 3DS) games

I've mentioned Rue La La -- a nifty sale membership-only sale site (although membership is free) before. One of their current sales is on Stonewall Kitchen stuff! Also, note that they do local deals for four cities (NYC, Boston, Seattle, and Philly). The current Seattle one is for the Stumbling Goat Bistro, for anyone in that area.

Amazon's got a Buy 1, Get 50% off Another sale on Nintendo DS games. Titles include recent hits (Lego POTC, the latest Dead or Alive, Rayman, Rabbids, and Street Fighters, etc), and some classics (New Super Mario Brothers, various Pokemon, Plants vs Zombies, etc).

Quick Kingdom of Loathing note

First, if you haven't logged in for a while, note that they had a world even that led to a change in the was ascension works. It's quite nifty.

Second, I'm on my second hardcore Bees Hate You path. I actually find them mostly easy (although occasionally annoying), until Level 12. Then things suck. A lot.

But I love the idea of this, and I love the associated content that comes with it. You can try BHY without doing hardcore, I suppose, but it's more interesting this way for me.

For iOS owners who are also fans of old-school games

The classic '90s X-Men arcade game is now available for the iOS! It's $2.99, which is high for an app, but it's still a great game. It's also better written than at least 80% of the X-titles over the last twenty years.

And the classic Bitmap Brothers game Speedball 2 is free for a limited time!
