Monday Mind Teasers: I need some consoling photo

You know how it works! With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones.

This week I'm using a theme that's like nothing else I've ever used, but while it should prove fun and interesting for you guys, I'm guessing it will be incredibly easy. It was worth doing it once though, so I hope you enjoy. As usual, don't be afraid to shout out ideas and work together as a team to solve them all. Good luck!

P.S. If you haven't voted on last week's 2008 Best Game of the Year game debate yet, then tonight is your last chance.

I think easy 3 is a Gameboy. Probably a Gameboy Pocket or Color but they all look so similar.

The upside of the simplicity in this Monday's article is that we can under no circumstances guess the theme is "God is dead" and "Thus Spake Zarathustra" when it was really "Eminem's CD Album Titles"...

My printer??? Hahaha.

Atlas also makes a good point, that was a funny week. After almost 3 years of doing these every week I'm starting to run out of good ideas :/

Congrats to ArrestedDeveloper and Vonneuton, this week.

You should do a cartridge one from when they were still used if you get super desperate.

You guys are all too young. :)

Hard #2 is the Intellivision. They made the control discs nice and bright.
