Back to the Future

Another childhood idol that many of us had: Marty McFly from Back to the Future. Last year, the jacket and shoes were listed on eBay and ended at a pretty penny. Now, the hat is available. Check out the whole fit!

Zack Morris (really… Zack Morris, not Mark-Paul Gosselaar) was on Jimmy Fallon last night. The coolest dude we knew from Bayside hasn’t changed a bit! If you missed last night’s episode, here’s a clip. He definitely brought back a lot of childhood memories by staying in role. And is he wearing AF1s?

Right on the heels of the Portable NES, here’s a t-shirt design featuring the silhouettes of Super Mario and Toadstool. Check it out. Available at Threadless.

Super Mario and Toadstool

Why did Mario invite Toadstool to the party?
Because he’s a real fun guy!
[Sorry, it was just too perfect to pass up!]

Nintendo

18/05/2009

Many of you may remember when its name and console were synonymous, and we all had secret ways to get the games to work: blowing the cartridge, pushing the game down right as it was seated in the slot, praying that it would just somehow work, etc. Now, there’s a new way to play those classic NES games: on the go.

The Retro Mini Handheld NES ($50 available from Think Geek) runs off 4 AA batteries (lasts 8 hours), has a 2.4″ LCD screen, built in speakers, headphone jack, and composite A/V cables to connect to a TV. This unit fits those old school, full-sized NES cartridges.

EMP & The Space Needle

13/05/2009

The recent release of the Windows 7 Release Candidate has gotten even Mac users to download it (for free) directly from the Microsoft website and try it out. You can run Windows 7 until at least June 2010. If you want to use it on a Mac, Google it and you should be able to find step by step instructions. Windows users, just download and install (back-up everything first, of course).

Browsing through the different themes and desktop images, I noticed a wallpaper that many Seattleites may appreciate. Click on the image to download the full image.

They Shootin!

9/05/2009

If you’ve ever heard a conversation between people who are into photography, one question that you always hear is, “What do you shoot?” For the most part, the answers commonly heard are either Canon or Nikon (no disrespect to the other brands, but let’s be real.. they have the camera game on lock). One thing you wouldn’t expect to hear answered is “my rifle.”

Dubbed the Tactical Camera Long Range Assault Stock, or TALCS, this contraption is mean to replace the use of the traditional shutter release. Take a look at the shots below. Definitely a cool theme to go with to demonstrate its uniqueness. These cameras were taken out for “target practice.” Nice..

Konami Code

8/05/2009

Konami Code Sites is a compilation of the websites that have the Konami Code embedded it in as a “easter egg” of sorts. And the cool thing is – you have to enter in the Konami Code to even access the website!

I really shouldn’t post this because this is something that only (cool) people who grew up playing Contra really know, but here’s the code:

Definitely HELLA FRESH!

This isn’t a post about the Beats by Dr. Dre, but rather a post related to equipment that Dr. Dre and damn near every other producer use. These are USB flash drives made to look like miniature versions of the Akai MPC 2000XL and the E-Mu SP-1200. Cop one now before they sell out! They expect to sell out some time today.

Order them from mpc2000xlflashdrive.com.
