@Nintendoownsmii, holy cow that purse is awesome. I would rock that in a second. No sex change required, eab.

And regarding GameJew, I just gotta say, I met him back when he was doing the Mario Opera, and I think that's still his best work. I saw them play a couple times in L.A. and each time was amazing, even with different casts, sets, and props. All the music is based on the classic Mario platformers, and the lyrics follow the story of Mario as an everyman haunted to keep living the same adventure over and over, trying to save his princess while finding out he's in a video game all along. If you're not familiar, I highly recommend giving them a listen. They have 4 tracks up at http://www.myspace.com/themariopera. They're great. When I was dressed as a Goomba at the iam8bit thing, he was there in his Mario outfit and totally stomped on me. It was awesome.

@fabledgamer, Virtual Boys are so frickin' cheap right now that you gotta be nuts NOT to have one for your collection. They're hilarious to show off to people who've never heard of them. It's just so wacky and futuristic the way you shove your face into the thing. And the Mario Tennis and the Wario Land games are actually great on it. But stay away from the golf. Gotta be the worst golf ever. Those are the only 3 I've played on mine so far, but I'll get the rest eventually, since there's only about 7 or so U.S. games on the thing.

@Crazyman, do you have any pictures of that DK banana pen?



Oh I just remembered after reading the rest of this thread, I also have a Mario Kart stylus, and a Cranky Kong action figure.
