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.

He’s shaking… does he have parkinsons or something?
also, this is funny as shit.
wow, um i wonder if they ever thought that we’d be looking at this a TOTALLY different way than they intended when they made this. great stuff! he’s lookin a little dry there though… ;-)
Omg, the little blurb is hilarious.
“pulling and squeezing on your knob.”
Old picture is old?
Bahahahahahaha!
It get’s harder because the joystick gets all… slippery.
@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.
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!
Things were different back then. Waaay different.
Segas stick has no buttons yet this guy is still vigorously enjoying his time with it…
When in doubt pinky out, I guess.
Lolwut?
” Now You’re Shooting All Over The Place But Its No Use…GAME OVER…” Oh My God.
Funny how thats my main pickup line too…
Oh Sega, you were always ahead of your time.
Yeah, there’s no way that’s not intentional. Also, I have one.
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.
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?
that is amazing and a half
Why you think my Atari 2600 controller has a vibrate function >.>
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)
That’s it! We’re all going to hell in a hand basket!
