Merry Christmas from all here at Save Point
For everyone who celebrates it, Merry Christmas to you. For all who celebrates something else, including but not limited to anti-life, happy whatever that would be from all of us at Save Point.
By the way, if you want to download the album, go ahead and do so. It can be free, but if you feel in the giving mood, you can pay what you want. It's full of holiday Chiptune wonderment.

Nick’s Friday Round-Up
Let's start off this week with a some awesomazingness. Such as a man who plans to make a full-scale Millennium Falcon, including the interior. [geekologie]
MOAR creepy robots! DARPA is at it AGAIN with a humanoid robot that can traverse crazy obstacles. [geekologie]
Science fiction is slowly becoming science fact. Those crazy scientists have once again laughed in the face of physics, or whatever, and created a real life tractor beam. [geekosystem]
Once again, someone has come along and ruined our childhood. Severely creepy humanized versions of our favorite cereal mascots. [geekologie]
To make up for that last link, here's a Disney themed Voltron. [geekologie]
When you popped in your NES cartridge, and the game didn't work, what was the first thing you did? You popped it back out and blew on it. Well let's look at this, scientifically, to see if blowing on the cartridge really had any effect. [mentalfloss]
When I get my own house, every single window is going to be one of these. Stained glass video game stuffs! [geekologie]
Joss Whedon is known for killing off some pretty significant characters in his TV shows and movies. Let's look at 7 of the most tragic ones. [dorkly]
Who says you can't log into multiple accounts on the same website at once? Let's stick it to the man! [howtogeek]
It's pumpkin season! Take a look at some of these insane and amazing pumpkin carvings. [geekologie]
Speaking of carving pumpkins, here's a guy who carved one with a gun. [geekologie]
How's your nerd-cred? Good? Test your nerd-cred with this little nerdy, unlicensed halloween costume quiz. I'll bet you miss every single one. [dorkly]
If finding an awesome costume for yourself isn't bad enough, some people need costumes for their pets. For those of you who are super cheap, but still want to dress up your pet, check out these 27 DIY pet costumes. [buzzfeed]
One of my favorite shows, growing up, was Are You Afraid of the Dark. SNICK was my favorite time-block of the entire week. Forget Rugrats, it was all about AYAOTD and Ren & Stimpy, but that's off topic. Here are 50 of the most terrifying characters from Are You Afraid of the Dark. I apologize if I bring back your nightmares. (no I don't) [buzzfeed]
Most of the time we associate lighting your house and having it go along to music, with Christmas. Well a few people have extended this tradition into halloween. [geekologie]

Nintendohemian Rhapsody
I have no reservations about saying that, as of now, this video currently wins the internet. As well as many internets of the future. Nintendohemian Rhapsody is one of those parodies that only comes along as often as a really good Spider-man video game. Blip.tv user, Brentalfloss, is no n00b to the creation of video game themed videos. In fact, he's been putting out fantastic videos like this one for about a year now. Swing on over to his channel and give him a follow.

Nick’s Friday Round-Up: These ARE the Links You’re Looking For Edition.
I'm much more comfortable with this. In fact, I'm a pro.
Pause your game, put down that comic book, stop thinking about the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas episode for 2 seconds, and gather around. It's time for everybody's favorite part of the week, Nick's Friday Round-Up!
We start off with a THIS is THAT of the day. What do you get when you cross Star Wars with Dr. Seuss? How about a very entertaining Darth Vader as the Grinch mash-up. [blastr]
This is one talented dog. He loves his snack foods. Dunkers more specifically. Although there's something a little suspicious about how he's eating them. [geekosystem]
I finally got to see the Muppet movie this past Wednesday, and I loved it. It was one of the best nostalgia brain explosions I've had in quite a long time. It'll make you sing. It'll make you laugh. It'll make you cry get all choked up. <_< But what you may not have known is while the Muppets were apart, a few of them tried out for other TV and movie roles. [buzzfeed]
This isn't the nerdiest of news stories, but it's about monkeys throwing poo. MONKEYS. THROWING. POO. SRSLY, how could I not add this to the Round-Up? [geeokosystem]
This right here is another Skyrim related post. Yep, sure is. While playing the game. (that you just lost) I'm sure you've noticed there are many ways you can quickly come to your demise. This video will show you 100 ways to die. A few of my personal favorites, are numbers 7, 8, 10, 18, 22, 49, 54, 72, and 96. Enjoy. [uproxx]
So who doesn't enjoy a good opera, AMIRITE? Anybody.... anybody... yeah. Ok, well let's make an exception for 2 minutes 49 seconds, and watch this Mario opera. Trust me, you won't be disappoint. [geekosystem]
As we go about our day, we rely on many gadgets to help us get through it. We put a lot of our trust in them. Probably definitely too much. Especially in things we rely on the most for our safety i.e. cars. Here are 8 gadgets that lie to you every day. [cracked]
If you recall, back in September, Stuart posted about two floppy disk drives playing the Imperial March. Well how about this. Four floppy disk drives playing Portal's "Still Alive". [geekosystem]
To finish it off, and in honor of the beginning of December and winter approaching, I'll leave you with a winter escape game. Allowing you to take that much needed break from Skyrim. Yep... I mentioned it again. [howtogeek]
