Gamers tying the knot means two things, one being a future full of split screen and the other being the potential of having a completely awesome video game-themed wedding cake. While the split screen is still very much a reality for this passionate couple, the completely awesome video game-themed cake fell slightly short. Their beautiful ivory colored Xbox 360 cake is attractive at first glance but closer inspection reveals the A button and B button colors are reversed and the guide button houses a triangle reminiscent of Zelda instead of the instantly recognizable glowing X. One mistake may be forgivable but two? I’m pretty sure that is grounds for divorce.

Still looks pretty awesome though for it kinda being not exactly what it’s supposed to look like lol. When my hubby and I got married, we were really considering to do a SOCOM game cake, since that’s how we met. But heck… I ended up choosing a more traditional cake instead. To this day, I still kick myself for not just choosing the SOCOM game cake. blah!

Hasbro made the thumbs backwards on their GI Joe figures so if someone made a mold out of them and started making their own, they could be readily caught. Mego, or all people, got caught at it.
Anyway, maybe they used a triangle and switched the colors so Microsoft couldn’t sue them.

Once you said it was a wedding cake, I KNEW there would be RROD jokes… lol =D
Besides, you are being way too picky with the cake… reversed colors, triangle on the controller… I think somebody’s jealous ^_-

Maybe the people who made the cake are total noobs. Or maybe they were all out of green, slightly slanted X’s, and didn’t have any more green A’s, or Red B’s, so the couple chose the best available. Either that or they hired crappy caterers because of a possible divorce. I’m talking red ring of death.

Who cares if there is a few problems, it is cake. It will still be eaten as quickly as a cake without faults

As soon as I saw the picture I thought “They probably changed it so “Mike Rowe Soft” wouldnt sue their asses, and RROD joke, looks like all of these have already been mined out! :)

What doesn’t matter is the mistakes. What does matter is the effort. :)

You speak the truth Matoro. :)
And your square is pink and girly because you are pink and girly Cozmo. Duh!

Dude i’d sue the cake maker for screwing up my wedding.
@ Bs’s responce to Matoro: lolololololol
Posted by D taktics on August 5, 2008 at 9:20 pm
I’d also have a fake H3 disk sticken out of it. Hopefully the cake maker wouldn’t fuck that up and put cock 4 in there instead.
PS: sorry for the double post.

I wonder if they mixed up the 360 button layout, with Nintendo’s layout…?

News flash: That cake was a lie.
