Here’s my very latest building kit: My First Game Console (Sprite Edition)

This is a really fun build, with a lot of great little details. It’s 220 pieces which allows you to construct the main unit, two controllers and two cartridges. And yes, the cartridges can be popped into the main unit — just be sure to blow the dust off ‘em first! 

It’s up for preorder at http://powerpig.storenvy.com/, and it’s expected to ship in about two weeks. Downloadable building guide coming soon!

No matter how many times I play this game I always find a little something new each time. I’m sure by now most people have played this game, but if you’re of the few that have not….

I assure you it’s worth your time.

Forgotten Gems: Legendary Wings (1988)

20,000 years in the future, mankind has built a giant supercomputer named DARK to rule the planet. For hundreds of years, DARK has governed with wisdom and justice. But now the unthinkable has happened: DARK is malfunctioning, and humanity is writhing in the grasp of a ruthless tyrant. DARK has built a fleet of robot warships to patrol the skies, and has created an army of mutant monsters to guard the underground bases from which he now terrorizes mankind. Lulled by hundreds of years of peace, the people of earth are defensless against the minions of DARK. But two brave young men, following an ancient legend of Greek mythology, have devised mechanical wings to bear them aloft in search of DARK’s hidden fortress. Armed with the last remaining guns and missiles from a crumbling arsenal, you must fly them across the continents and oceans to seek out and destroy the cruel colossus! If you fail, mankind is lost. Take wing, Legendary Soldiers!

Limited edition Zelda 3DS & Earthbound labels for… NES controllers? ⊟

This is weird but neat (a common theme for our site): that gold/black design Nintendo used for its limited edition Zelda 3DS and Wii U systems can now be purchased as a skin for an NES controller. There’s also a Mother/Earthbound design — red buttons/pad presumably not included!

GamerGrafx says the peel and stick decals are “precision cut to the exact dimensions of the original NES controller” and feature “a weatherproof glodd polyester material.” The labels are $9.99 each.
