The graphics were shit, but the fun was real. I don’t need super-3d-pixelation - I just need a good game. DigDug was simple, cool and nerve wrecking.

My own piece of virtual sim land, my own sim virtual citizens and my own virtual sim kingship. All hail the King Sim!

This is how sex in computer games started. It was like they all say: sex starts in your head (because you can’t really see anything). Too bad that modern games show more and more virtual titties and super cuties a la Lara Croft. It is just impossible to masturbate with a xbox controller.

Designers of these funny japan style action games must take serious drugs. Otherwise they are either mental disturbed or real geniuses. Anyway - I hardly play such games these days - I am an old fart now. But I sure as hell love game art and it’s wonderful creatures.

The style of some games reminds me of children books. I just hope that their tales would not only include fights and grabbing gold. But old fairy tales are actually pretty bloody as well. Some of the stuff written down by the Brothers Grimm is pure carnage - but it’s less graphical in style and certainly doesn’t repeat itself over and over again. But Fairy Tales also don’t push the High Score mentality either …

I would buy these just to collect them: they look beautiful. Excellent industrial design. Top: GameBoy Mini, Bottom Game Boy DS. I can’t wait for an Gameboy Nano or something like it …

I really wondering how the instant gratification & always on generation will cope with any serious problems that requires patience and long term thinking? Games only train easy and repeatable solution thinking within a short time frame. Even strategy and building games simulate only very simple methods to problem solving.

Wagga Wagga Wagga!

Everybody in my generation knows what that means …

Or just play it right now.

PS: And there is nothing that the japanese can’t turn into to fucked up video.
