Damn, I don't think I've ever seen anyone put the knife to use at all in this game, and Vinny is just cuttin' bitches left and right.

So, does this mean Ryo has a "girlfriend who lives in Canada" now?

Man, dude gets more pitiful with every passing day.

Also, some of the Kiki Kai Kai games were released in the states under the name "Pocky and Rocky."

For those wondering. Gradius was the first game to use the Konami code.

According to legend, it was implemented by a programmer who was trying to debug the game and having a hard time playtesting because he wasn't very good at it, so he added an "obscure sequence of inputs" that would give him all the weapons so he could survive long enough to test it, and supposedly, nobody bothered to remove the code from the final version.

Was Flak Attack a Game Room game? It looks kind of familiar.

For the record, yes, there's an eventual end to Space Harrier.

I don't recommend reaching the end of Space Harrier though, that sprite scaling effect started to give me a headache about halfway through.

Yes, Japan has Christmas. That's when families get together to eat KFC.

Come on guys. Adam Sandler as Tom, obviously!
