Truth in Advertising

Any annoying Captain Obvious type who dares make an “old picture is old” comment will immediately suffer the merciless wrath of my unapologetic banhammer. It’s an advertisement for a Sega joystick for cripe’s sake. Of course it’s fucking old! Now that being said, I want one.

    @the Light Show: I think they fully intended the sexual meaning. :D

    @Angel: You said you want one, eh? I actually have a hard joystick you could borrow.

  7. PikminGod says:

    really you posted this? do you know how old this is? this is like pre-56k, you are such a loser!

    I think the fact that this is comment no. 8 reflects how much this image rendered the general community into speechlessness!

  15. Oh Sega, you were always ahead of your time.

  16. Mace Windex says:

    Yeah, there’s no way that’s not intentional. Also, I have one.

  17. Rhamsey says:

    ive actually never seen this one. nice.
    on the topic of sega though, have you heard of the ultimate sega collection for 30 dollars, with i believe 40 games on it? i cant wait.

  18. Sorel says:

    So I ignored everything else and looked at the price tag…

    “Joystick – 34.99″

    “16-Bit Megadrive with Altered Beast Game – 149.99″

    Does anyone want to laugh at that as much as I do?

  19. Araknoros says:

    that is amazing and a half

    and this was made BEFORE “that’s what she said” jokes became a phenomenon. (unless Generation X was doing this already and i wasn’t aware of it)
