Monday Mind Teasers - 1/8/06 photo

Fronz is a very busy man. He works for many a website, writes many an article, and makes me do many a favor for him while he's in Vegas playing with toys. One of those favors is this here Monday Mind Teasers; a bitch of an article, really. Fronz is silly. Why'd he think of this article? Big idiot.

That's right, I'm cheap-shotting Fronz while he's in Vegas. 

Anyway, since I'm such a nice person, and I'd done it before, I decided I'd do it again. The only technicality is that I refused to do that crossword mumbo jumbo, I have better, more manly things to do with my time. Like, Soccer Practice. 

Hit the jump for a slightly pathetic Monday Mind Teasers. 

Easy #1:

Easy #2:

Medium #1:

Medium#2:

Hard: 


And as usual, you need to guess the theme as well.

I expect this to be done within 10 comments. Get crackin'!

Jesus Christ, I got like four out of the five of these immediately, and the theme. Fronz's are way harder than this.

All I can see in Medium 2 is a boot in the bottom part. Who wears boots in video games...?

In the center of Medium 2... are those white sections looking like the 3 bones found in a person's ear?

Medium 2 almost looks like someone is doing a handstand, or starting a kartwheel... I see a boot, and what looks like a blocky hand next to it...

From the cone shape in the middle at the top, and the pyramid esqe shape coming from the right middle, I thought maybe it could be Donkey Kong as well. Because that white circles thing in the middle of it look like how you could draw his face too, but that book is throwing me off and I cannot think of a single Rare game that would have a look like that.

I've been trying to match Medium 2 to an actual picture for a while now... it's become the real hard one.

Nope, I can clearly see that the right-most white blob is 2 eyes and a schnoz.

Donkey Kong Country for the Gameboy Color?

Yeah, I'm pretty convinced that's it.

You sure? I originally guessed Kameo but that was obviously a guess. The boots dont seem to match up to me.

I got that battletoads double dragon one immediately. I completely forgot that was put out by rare, though. It's still one of my favorite games, and I'd LOVE to see any of the Battletoads games make it to the VC.

Blast Corps was awesome! One of the most frustrating games ever though...trying to get Platinum on EVERY level was next to impossible.

Yup, you guys are right. Sorry, had to do this little thing called "Sleeping."

Fronz usually skips it for days at a time.
