Green (Hill) Zone, RockMan & CutMan comic, NES ads, and a SNES rom cartridge
So the Green Zone is coming out in the cinemas on March the 11th, so this Thursday apparently, so why not we get people even more excited with the film (if anyone is), with this masterpiece from Halolz:
On the topic of films and television, here’s a site which has an archive of old NES/Famicom ads from the US, Japan and Germany. Admittingly this still creeps me out:
*shiver* Okay.. onto another topic.. well okay shit still related.. An interesting blog about how SEGA should give Nintendo the rights to make Sonic games.. Agree? Disagree? Perhaps again can be asked about the 50 3D milestones in video games throughout history?
This is too cute not to share with you folks, same with this tattoo:
Do you live in the UK? Might want to pop down 386 Claremont Road, Manchester at some point. Why?
Talk about brotherly rivalry! Oh well.. and FINALLY from Engadget.com, they talk about this cartridge for the Super NES/Super Famicom which allows you to play SNES roms straight from the cartridge:
Although one could ask if it is worth the US$170 or not. It’s still and illegitimate (and I’m sure many would agree, improper!) Nevertheless, if it’s for you, then be sure to check the site out.

Riven and Amiga coming to iPhone, PacMan cake, Pixelated furniture, and Mecha-Mario!
So two big announcements for the iPhone gaming community today which got me excited no doubt!
Have many of you played Myst? Like even on the iPhone? You’ll be glad to know that the sequel Riven is coming soon!!
Whilst on the subject of this portable gaming platform, for those that know of, as well as have read my review of the Commodore 64 app right? Well Toucharcade.com mentioned, that Manomio has announced that they’re releasing an Amiga emulator!
Alright, calm yourselves down.. might be the lack of sugar.. or too much sugar? Either way, how’s this for a cake?
Jetcitycakes.com (which I believe is in USA), have for us to drool on, the PacMan arcade machine. Now you’re going to need a place to put that cake on, how about pixelated furniture?
Look no further than Joonghochoi.com for this extraordinary table. Another thing perhaps one could put on a table, or somewhere where kickass ornaments belong, would be this custom-made mecha mario, submitted by Flickr user Ekola:
Okay, I must go now and finish the next Dungeon in Zelda 3: A Link to the Past. And due to it being summertime here in Australia, I’m going to have a Drink to the Past. Beer is in order!
