Abobo Vs. the NES Universe
Watch this game trailer. Watch it immediately, then come back. NO EXCUSES.

…ready? Okay, the video blew your mind, right? Well, let me blow your mind again, because this game is real. It’s coming, for free, from the geniuses over at I-Mockery.com. There’s really going to be a game where the enormous and oddly proportioned thug from the Double Dragon games fights Lemmings, the old man from Legend of Zelda and Death from Castlevania, among hundreds of other NES characters. This is so amazingly, intensely awesome I can barely stand it. The minute this thing becomes playable I will let you know about it. Infinite thanks to Robert C. for the tip.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.

Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
