Triptych: Sugar Rush


"Official Wreck-It Ralph Pixelated Plush" (11") from The Disney Store


"I'm Gonna Wreck It!" by "Dapper" Dan Schoening


"Famicom Art Project: Ruin" (90° rotation) by Marc Short

Guys, Wreck-It Ralph is out! I haven't had a chance to go see it yet but apparently I am in the minority because it's currently the #1 movie at the U.S. box office. Excellent! Good job, everybody! Cigars all around!

Triptych: Now You're Playing With Power


"NES" by Charlie Bernatowicz


"Gameboy and Games" by Derek Temple


"Lucky Star and Disk Writer" by Gashi Gashi

If you're wondering about that last one and how it relates to Nintendo, the Famicom Disk Writer was a peripheral that was only ever released in Japan. Basically, games for the Disk Writer were released on rewriteable floppy disk (take a look at the original Legend of Zelda disk, for an example) and led to, as far as I know, the first cases of console game piracy.
