Somebody loves the Gameboy so much that they took it from vertical to horizontal. Don’t worry, it’s still fat, just a little more sexy. The knock-off supposedly has a sharper image than the original. Sadly, details are scant on this baby.

All we really know is that it showed up in a Photobucket set. If you’re nostalgic and like your GB wide rather than tall, you’ll have to scour the knock-off district of the internet in search of one. Then tell us where we can get one.

Are people really still playing the Gameboy? That just seems sad in this day of awesome high tech games.

You got candy. You got Pac-Man. That is an awesome combination. Instead of eating pellets, Pac-Man is dropping them out of his pie-hole. Wakka Wakka Wakka Wakka. Have the ultimate sugar high as you freak out and try to ram the ghost containers into Pac-Man’s mouth with candy flying everywhere. That’s how it’s gonna go down when I order this.

When the Mrs. gets home, she’ll kick me in the balls and make me eat em off the floor but still. All worth it.

Having trouble controlling yourself when it comes to playing your DS? Do you get the shakes when that bad boy is closed? You probably pet your real life kitten as if you’re using a stylus. The Health Control Game Timer should help you out, you weak willed Mario Kart addicted sack of sadness. It will take control and lay the smack down hard.

It shuts down your Nintendo DS if you’ve been playing for too long. How long is too long? Either 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes. It depends how bad you need help. The problem is if you are truly addicted, you just won’t buy one. Or if you do, you could always just turn the system back on and keep playing for another 2 hours. So, if you buy this, consider yourself scammed and not bright enough to join the human race outside of your DS screen. We don’t want ya, so just keep right on playing.

Earlier in the week, the Nintendo World Store in New York celebrated the release of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for the DS. To honor the occasion, there was a special midnight release party with the usual free stuff and special giveaways.

This DS Lite was one of those giveaways. And yes, I feel your pain and also wish I was there. Lucky bastitches. Check out the GTA:CTW chopstick styluses, which I’m sure gives Nintendo all kinds of ideas about a game that teaches one how to use them. Might not be a good idea to use them as real chopsticks though.

I feel slightly messed up after watching this. What we have here is Mario, Link, Mega Man and the Princess all standing around getting drunk and taking bong hits while fishing. All done to rap. The video is probably NSFW due to language.

“Put it on a hook bitch”. Catchy tune. Mega man has some nice moves btw. I have to admit to being a little disappointed that it didn’t end with everyone gangbanging the Princess, but that’s just me.

Pretty cool, but do they make the going-down-pipe noise every time you put your feet in? They damn well better if I’m gonna pay $12 for these. A great way to pretend your feet are warping to different levels, if you happen to be a video game nerd in need of socks.

What’s next? Socks with a smashed Goomba on the bottom? I hope so. It would save me the trouble of smashing them myself. Goombas are real ya know.

Wacka-wacka-wacka. It’s like a power pellet in a can. Drink up. Then go super fast and eat ghosts. Then when the power pellet formula wears off, wake up from your sugar and caffeine induced haze to find your teeth in a co-workers neck. Then hear Pac-Man dying sound.

It’s a hell of a drink. Now prepare for a hell of a lawsuit. Perhaps of a sexual harssment nature if the co-worker is female.

There’s finally an official Japanese release date for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days in Japan! May 30th, Japanese gamers will be able to play the game for 5,980 yen or $60 which is kinda steep for a DS game.

Even steeper is the Kingdom Hearts Louis Vuitton inspired black DSi bundle which costs 24,480 yen $246! The question is, are you fan enough to pay those prices?

Gaming and drinking collide with these WoW steins. Next time you are at one of your conventions, just pull this out of your bag and level up with some booze. All your geek friends will be envious.

It might even score you some elf babe with a huge treasure chest. $89.99 to $174.99.

This dude is big pimpin. How many rupees do ya think he spent on all that bling? It’s an odd image. It makes me want to vomit for some reason. Is he the coolest dude ever or just some guy who needs an ass kicking? Maybe a bit of both.

If you see this dude walking the streets dressed like this, go ahead and give him a hug. Then kick him in the balls and steal his bling. He needs both.
