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

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.
