who the fuck was this year’s olympic mascot?!?!?!
| written by john on 09/02/08 | 3 comments |
did the olympics just happen? i mean, i saw something on tv this summer that kind of looked like the olympics… but it couldn’t have because THERE WAS NO FUCKING OLYMPIC MASCOT!!!!!!!!!!!
i don’t know if you guys remember but back when we were kids it seemed like the actual games were secondary to what ever dumb ass character was chosen to represent them. remember back in ‘96 when they picked that izzy guy… he was like this blue thing and… and i guess there’s no other way to really describe him, he really was just this blue thing and i guess his eyes were supposed to be the olympic rings or something.
but whatever, he was slapped on every bit of merchandise imaginable. if alf fucked michelle tanner their baby would be izzy the olympic mascot (and by the way… slash fic idea!). he even had a super nintendo game!
but now there are no olympic mascot video games because i don’t even know who the fucking olympic mascot is. what’s wrong with you chinese government? you’ve enslaved so many children, can’t you put one of them to work designing the ultimate olympic mascot? an olympic mascot that will tower over all the weak willed western mascots? an olympic mascot that will drive a tank right through olypic mascot square crushing the skulls of ronny and roni the racoons, paloma the dove and blaze the colorful pheonix?

nintendo cereal: a video game you can eat?!
| written by eric on 08/12/08 | 3 comments |
if you were popular in the 80’s then two things would inevitably
happen. 1.) you’d become a breakfast cereal. 2.) you’d become a
nintendo game. given those two facts. was there any ever doubt that
this would happen…
the nintendo cereal system wasn’t just a meal — it was a full fledged
video game playing break-stravaganza-fast, magic-licously combining
the awesomeness of sugar-based cereal and the awesomeness of nintendo.
with the nintendo cereal system you were playing your breakfast and
eating your nintendo!
i just hope the marshmallows aren’t in another fucking castle.

nintendocore battle of the bands: the finals
| written by daroff on 07/16/08 | 6 comments |
you have spoken and it’s time for the final round of the battle of the bands, nintendocore style. this time our bands will take on the musical stylings of super mario brothers.
in this corner, we have minibosses. their alternative rock stylings tear up the acid dream that is super mario 2. if you had any doubt as to their insane riffing, check it out in this guitar hero knock off.
and in this corner, we have powerglove. their epic metal take on the original super mario brothers theme kicks the crap out of your parents 8-bit track.
you decide: alt. rock or epic metal?
