Bomberman you fools!

The new GBA looks almost too tiny to be a Game & Watch, never mind a full on portable console.

Hey, don't forget, seven is supposed to be a lucky number after all.

You know, all prices end in nine. That's kind of eerie, isn't it?

That, and sales tax, are the only reasons we'll never get the 99 cent coin.


Up yours, Greenspan!

99 cent/pence coins would absolutely cripple the charity industry.

Maybe thats why the Raving Lunatic Party never won. Mind you, I can't remember the last time I bought something ending in 99p.

The 99 cents in the end of the price are a marketing strategy. It's supposed to fool costumers who think they'll only pay 49 bucks for something, when they'll actually pay $50. There are people who fall in that trick, sadly.
