don't have to go to the store and buy
razors looking like this yeah Dollar
Shave Club I don't know if you've heard
of it but it's kind of amazing with
Dollar Shave Club it's like a fraction
of the cost of big shaved companies and
I get ultra sharp razors delivered

discreet box so nobody knows and they
have other products to like this stuff

capsule form I'm your host Ashley skibba
it's always a big week in gaming so
let's hit the news this story is crazy
and insane and awesome twitch TV is
hosting a first generation game of
Pokemon on their site with a twist
they've set the game up to a live feed
from a gameboy emulator and programmed
it so that the channels chat room
commands translate into button pushes
the last time I checked over 66,000
people are playing pokemon at once
resulting in a chaotic chat room in
putting hundreds of commands a second
griefers and Pokemon enthusiasts alike
are all participating making for an
absolutely manic play session it's
already been going on for about a week
with the hivemind managing to make it to
the third city or so to step forward two
steps back last week Nintendo held their
first Nintendo Direct of 2014 focusing
on games for wii u and 3ds that would be
released this spring mario golf world

revealed as a playable character and
super smash brothers for both Wii U and
3ds and Mario Kart 8 will officially
drop on Wii U on May thirtieth we also
got a proper gameplay trailer for
monoliths softs X exciting fans of the
xeno series and a new trailer for
bayonetta 2 which was announced for Wii
U a while back in 2012 overall a pretty
exciting direct nice work Nintendo if
you're anything like me and everyone
else I know you were probably playing
titan falls beta this weekend until your
face melted off all that beta is
spinning down this week but a pair of
fans toying around with the game's files
found some very sweet information map

those maps were likely on earth to
adding up to a total of fourteen maps

Angel City and fracture from the beta
