Haha, you should totally go to a sushI place and order a futanari!

Well, I usually order a futomaki roll so...nah. The word "Pervert" was used, so that worries me.

The WWE should open a wrestling themed sushi restaurant, or maybe not as wrestling and sushi don't go hand in hand but:

Hulkamania Roll (Yellow fin tuna and salmon)
Yokozuna Roll (Deep fried jumbo shrimp)
Rock n' Roll (Surf n' Turf)
CK Roll (Vegetable roll)
Vince roll (Soft shell crab)
Benoit Roll (Badger and vicodin)
AJ Lee Roll (Smoking hot shrimp)

...eh, I got nothing.

As long as you get to see them Stone Cold Stunner a giant tuna, I think its a win!

I can make it even worse...

The John Cena "You can't sea weed roll"
The Undertaker's "Tombstone pizza roll"
Mick Foley's "Bang Bang Trigger fish roll"
Ray Mysterio's "Red Snapper Neck roll"

Does the original Super Mario Bros. 2 (The Lost Levels) have a save feature? I can't seem to find one. If one doesn't exist then what the hell was the point of putting the game on a disk?

Price? They had those Famicom Disk kiosks everywhere in Japan where you could download new games at a fraction of the price of buying cartridges. I would wager that a lot of games that supported it didn't necessarily NEED to be on a floppy, but benefited by being cheaply procurable.

But that is just a guess.

Very cool and very real. Nintendo PlayStation article.


The coolest part is we get to see the insides. Though I'm not sure why they didn't check the other side of the mainboard.

I'm not sure how you can be disappointed this doesn't play actual PlayStation 1 games ... it obviously isn't going to have the same chipset that was eventually used.

Yeah price was my guess as well. Probably cheap to mass-produce those floppies. Of course, that leads to the question - why aren't there more disk games then? Maybe consumers became annoyed with the hardware unreliability and load times.

Ostensibly game-saving was why the peripheral was created in the first place - the system launched before lithium battery saves were a thing.

WWOOOOO!!!! I love the ancient, "what-ifs," of video game history manifesting themselves into reality. This is very exciting times! Next thing you know, we will find the remaining Atari 2600, Swordquest relics!

This is true, but I admit that I sometimes do miss the dark days where we sat around our campfires and spoke only of ye olde gaming legends in hushed and fervent whispers.

Ms. Pac Man for Xbox Live arcade is the best home console version of the game. It's arcade-perfect.

You really should try the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo versions sometime. The extras added to those exclusive ports - multiplayer! - make them tops, IMO. (To be fair, I have not played the Xbox Live Arcade version of Ms. Pac Man.)

[Lazer]

It doesn't surprise me, but I had no idea ms. pac man was on SNES. Probably a lot easier to list consoles it isn't on.

and... watching a Youtube of it: it looks awesome.
