The Daily Hotness: Retro goodness (09/16/08) photo

Seriously, Capcom, you all rock. This has got to be one of the coolest swags ever made for a game. Hopefully Capcom sends one my way as I really want to be a giant dick and give the cartridge to a friend. I want to watch him as he desperately tries to get the game to work on an actual NES. 

Nick previews Guitar Hero World Tour, a new contest is announced today, the Housers may be leaving Rockstar, 100 sealed Virtual Boys were found in Dubai, Soulja Boy doesn't like Braid and plenty more happened on Tuesday.

RetRose Tinted: Blackthorne
Podtoid 68: Nobody's played Killer Instinct
Games time forgot: Half-Life: Opposing Force
Game Debate to the Death! Aladdin VS NBA Jam

I don't even want Mega Man 9 and I'd totally pay upwards of $40 to own that thing.
