Yet another entire category of YouTube video that sounds completely fucking boring. Maybe this is a “kids these days” kind of statement, but I feel like I demanded at least a little more out of my entertainment as a boy.

And this is how you lose your shit. I’m dad and since it’s my money, this is now my account. Which I will cancel after taking your shit. Also thanks for agreeing to paint the house. And our neighbors. You’re also grounded for a...Wait for it. Fortnight. Dad wins.

It’s biggest flaw was there was no comfortable way to position yourself to use it.

Maybe it should’ve had a strap, at least.

I got one when it was released. My mom has my virtual boy now though. She actually plays it fine (mostly pinball.) Seems to be the exact perfect height to play it comfortably.

Got mine off of ebay, love Wario Land, Panic Bomber, and Alert Red. Sadly, mine has run into the loose connection issue with the display screens, and I just haven’t had the stomach to open it and bake it in a oven to fix it... (Yes that is the actual solution without doing a hardwired fix)

Haha, I too got it on clearance for $30. I got it from K-B Toys. I have since then acquired multiple VB games that cost a few times what I paid for the system 😆

Yup; if they’d come up with a halfway decent way to position yourself in front of the unit, it likely would’ve done better. I never owned a Virtual Boy, but I did rent one from the Video Vault down the way. I had a ton of fun with it (I think I had a Wario game, Virtual Tennis, and some kind of SHMUP style game rented…

It uses a mixture if asbestos, lead and orphan tears to keep it just the right consistency.

“What do they call a Whopper?”

Now you’re playing with POWDER!

I’ve been watching it for 38 minutes on a loop and I haven’t blinked yet. I’m dictating this to my son so he can write it for me so I don’t avert my eyes from the glory. Pray for me, 6th. Pray for me.

Maybe his aunt and uncle in Bel-Air will be more permissive.

Did it end up like this one, where lots of white folks are outraged on the internet and two black minimum wage food service workers lose their jobs?

This picture looks like Incognito is forcing Sir Patrick Stewart to give him a blowjob.

Aww, I thought this was going to be a lot more interesting. Like a guy actually did all the work to create branding, hired actors, staged a storefront for a day, etc. just to establish credibility. And then actually pulled it off, until some developer happened to catch them in a lie or was local to the area and knew…

Of course you think that.

The foot soldiers didn’t bother me, but Bebop looks terrible.

That’s some really awful character design, especial the foot clan soldiers that look like skeletons.

It’s not about narrative, really; it’s about drive. Having something to offer the world is purpose. Benefiting society is purpose. Purpose can be anything—it’s just the thing that motivates you to keep going even though there are countless things working against you at all times.
