Pole's Big Adventure will have you casting your rod for days photo

I know I always say Japan gets all the best games, but seriously, the fact that Pole's Big Adventure is a Sega game for WiiWare in which you eat a mushroom and get an erection ... well, I need to move to Japan. That's all.

Siliconera posted about the quirky title recently, also mentioning that it plays a lot like an old Famicom game and has intentional slowdown and misplaced sprites. For a person who didn't grow up with old games, that probably sounds like a huge headache, but to me it sounds both hilarious and incredible.

You can check out more video of the game here. I'm not even going to bother wishing for this, as I think it's safe to say a game including boners is not coming my way anytime soon.

Okay seriously, I think this would be one of the rare examples of mandatory piracy.

EVERYONE (including non-Japanese) needs to experience this game.

I was going to say that that should be in Bonerquest, but Bullet Train beat me to it.

And I thought the title was unintentionally provocative...

Having to become bat-shit-insane to work at SEGA, confirmed.

Colette wants to eat a mushroom and get a boner.

That is all.

Well, if there's one thing Sega knows, it's how to make a broken game.
