Famicase Exhibition Fuses Yesterday's Famicom Cartridges With Today's Curious Artistic Minds
Posted by Jack Loftus at 11:00 AM on July 21, 2008
Rounding out our Nintendo news trifecta today is the annual Famicase art exhibition. It's like many other art exhibitions from around the world, made infinitely cooler by the fact that the artwork is comprised of imaginary games pasted to old 8-bit Famicom carts. More than 50 designers, illustrators and authors contributed to event this year, which is organised by Super Meteor game shop owner Satoshi Sagagami. Some are crazier than others, but all have a home in this Nintendo lover's heart. Personal favourite? Overly promiscuous R.O.B.--now we know what he's been up to all these years!

What a great use for "obsolete media", it's not obsolete, as it still works, but someone will throw that label at it. Now, these little gems should be placed in a time capsule, so our future manifestations will know we were a bit civilized, not just clever tool users.

@Valicious: Get with the crazappy taste of Rocket Fuel Malt Liquor! Rocket Fuel's got the upstate prison flavor that keeps you ugly all night long. So when you wanna get sick, remember: Nothing makes your feet stank like Rocket Fuel Malt Liquor. Damn, it's crazappy!

@Git Em SteveDave is a poor substitute for LindsayJoy: It was called Grog back in the days.
