These guys should be beaten alive for wasting those games. After the games are safely taken off there bodies of course.

nooo there's a FF2,FF3,Secret of mana , Banjo Tooie and a few other good games on there. Hopefully they're really copies of Shaq Fu and they printed labels to make them look like those titles.


EDIT :  Thankfully that's the case

"Hey that's me! After reading the comments, I feel a few things should be pointed out. For one, no real games were harmed in the making of these costumes. They were all Madden games for the N64 and basketball games for the SNES. We grabbed a bunch of cartridge sticker scans off of some website and pasted them over the original covers. As for the systems, they were all bought off ebay, already broken beyond repair. Also my self conscious friend in the dress wanted me to point out he grew out the facial hair special for the con to have a rougher look or something gay like that. Anything else to touch on?"

-------------------------
If you have any GBA signage or kiosk I would be interested. Please send me a PM because I'm only here about once a month now but I'm still VERY interested in large system signage or small playable kiosks related to the GBA.

I believe that in the comments one of the guys said they just pasted fake labels over sports games and such. Otherwise, I'd also feel like braining them with a cinderblock as well.

I like how they didn't cheap out by using a bunch of sports titles. I don't approve of all the duplicate carts, though.

EDIT: nvm, they did use cheap sports titles. What a bunch of posers

Oh snap, I hadn't realized this cosplay was done with actual video game cartridges. Phenomenal.

I think it's clever, and actually makes a good costume.

It's pretty obvious that they wouldn't actually waste some of the carts that you can ID from the labels, unless they were loaded, in which case they'd probably have fancier costumes

Ha, yeah I saw this on reddit. I was kind of hoping they were NA members. But yeah I was looking at the games an thought they must have spent a ton of money on those titles, good to here they are crappy sports games.

I saw this earlier today, I was about to rage at the lack of respect for some of those games... I'm glad they turned out to be shitty sports games.
