So a few weeks ago I wrote about the game I hate with a passion. Solstice for the NES.

The first article can be found
here.
Now I have taken it upon my self to try and rid this game from the face of the planet. My goal as of right now is to get at least 100 copies of this game, and destroy them in 100 different ways (of course this will be video taped) So far I have 10 copies of the game I have bought, 2 being perfect editions with the box and manual. I am asking dtoids around the world to help me in this plight. When you ship me a copy of the game, make sure to send along with the copy a piece of paper with your screen name on it. When I start destroying games I will dedicate the copy you send to me, to you on camera and then destroy it in a fun filled way.
On top of getting a dedication, I will be doing 3 contests for people that send me games. Every time you send me a game, I will add your name into a drawing. Heres the 3 prizes I will be giving away.
1.Marvel vs Capcom 2 for the ps2 (this game is pretty rare and hard to find)
2.Dreamcast system (I will even throw in a badass game that I will determine later)
3.An Xbox 360....Yes you heard me right. An Xbox 360.
Listen here people, I want to know if this contest is even worth running, because if I run this I WANT people to send me games. I am going out on a limb and putting up some decent money for some lucky people so SEND SEND SEND. Every single game you send me gets you another chance to win an Xbox 360. So Come on people help me take out Solstice for the NES.
Please send all games to 6720 Gracely Dr. Cincinnati Ohio. 45238 Make it out to Joshua Harris Thanks!
Thanks for the quick comments, due to one of the comments below, I will also allow the sender of the game tell ME how they would like it destroyed. You want me to throw it off a building? Lets do it. you want me to shoot it up? Lets rock. So come on people give me some ideas and lets make this happen!
Depending on shipping costs and where you are located this does NOT have to be US only. If I'm already buying a 360 for someone, I don't think shipping it over seas would be a big deal. I just need the games to be shipped!
I don't have the game, but I do have a few instering ways of how to destroy them
1 Light them on fire
2 Blow them up with fireworks
3 Shoot them like clay targets
4 Beat it to death
5 Chop it in half
6 Put it in a trash compactor
7 Leave it out in the rain
8 Stick it in a blender (ala Will It Blend)
9 Stick it in the microwave
10 Feed it to an animal {or let him chew it}
Ok, I thought of 10, now you think of the rest
Bury some in the exact same place as ET for Atari was buried somewheres in that desert somewheres.
Holy cow them be some good prizes! I'm just going to assume that this is for you US folks and for some reason I really want to play that game now
Let the person who sends in the game to determine that copy's fate. The fate must be reasonable, of course.
If you agree to this, I'm in.
Thats anoter great idea ron. I will edit the post right now to reflect this.
OK, as promised, I'm in. PM me some shipping info, just don't put it in the blog. Someone (not pointing any fingers) might send you a dead bird or something for the hell of it.
I've already put my phone number up on a blog earlier, the shipping address is already up on the blog. I'm not to worried, if someone wants to try and ship a dead bird so be it lol. The address being in the blog makes it easier so I don't have to PM people my address that would get time consuming (i hope) :)
I'll check the local store this weekend and see if they have any copies of this game.
Woah, I gotta get in on this.
Mostly so I own MvC2 on PS2, XBOX, AND Dreamcast.
I have some ideas for the most part though:
1) Play street hockey with a copy until it breaks.
2) Cover it in meat and see if wild animals will fuck it up during the night.
3) Use a bunch as Dominoes to make a copy fall into a garbage can, then have that copy MEET THE PYRO, ifyouknowwhatImean.
4) Play any drinking game, only instead of taking shots, you have to hit a copy of the game with a hammer.
5) Play a 1v1 game, loser is forced to play the game for set amount of time, then he has to break it anyway he sees fit.
6) Tire, meet game. Game, meet tire.
7) Drop it off a really tall building
8) Give it the ol' Axe Effect. (Real axe?)
9) Give it the ol' Axe Effect. (Axe Spray + Lighter = ???, then Profit?)
10) Print out the art for a more popular, perhaps rare game, make a youtube video of you destroying Solstice with the fake art.
Watch as people whine and cry.
11) Make armor with them for PAINTBALL.
12) Shooting range?
13) FRISEBEE GOLF AT THE PARK WITH THEM.
More later, I suppose.
Got it, $5 on eBay after shipping. As soon as I get it, I'm sending it to you. Going on vacation on Saturday though, may take a while. Keep this post live, I'll favorite it.
I wonder if I still have this game... I had a boxed copy around here somewhere.
Thats what I'm saying people buy it on ebay and send it to me! My address if up on the blog. 5 bucks to win an xbox 360? sounds like a GREAT deal to me honestly. I could have said screwed it and used the cost of the 360 to just buy the copies but I want this to be a dtoid thing, not just a me thing! So 5 bucks is all you need have it shipped to my house! Easy as that!
You should probably repost this every so often just so everyone has a chance to get in on it. Or you can email an editor...
Will the cart only do or will I have to get one with the box and instructions?
Yeah, video games suck! Wait a minute...
Only the cart is fine. If you send the box and manual I will be doing something special for those people.
If i could ask everyone to digg http://digg.com/nintendo/5_bucks_is_all_you_need_for_an_Xbox_360 so we can get this thing HUGE. The more people that see it, the more that will hopefully be sending me the game. So please digg it!
here is the Digg story Why can't we edit comments ugh
I hate to tell you, but you're going to have a hard time sending a NA 360 to a PAL region.'
Whoops.
Not a problem, my whole family is from Scotland. If the winner is english, I will paypal them the money and have them buy it. Or I could always buy one online. Money isn't the issue here, If you want to send me the game I hope you do. If your not from NA I will find you an xbox 360!
CAN YOU DIG(G) IT!?
I did! :D
Im IN! Dude... I can get you 3 for under $15. Hahaha. 20 dollars for a chance to get a 360, not bad id say. Though id like to know if i can ship it to you directly since im buying it online.
As for ideas to destroy them with... Hmmm...
1) Use them as pizza cutters
2) Run them over with a Giant truck
3) Take any power tool to them.
4)Good old fashioned cd in a microwave trick
5)
I will be hitting up the local pawn shops this weekend. I am down for destroying as many copies as possible of a (presumably) awful game. Plus I was planning on picking up a second 360 anyway for system link...winning one wouldn't hurt.
thanks for the support guys. Tell your friends, I'm trying to get this story promoted so more people will see it and hopefully get in on the action.
gotta go look for this game! I want in on the fun!
I'll try and find one.
