My Famicase Exhibition ’09

seb — Thu, 07 May 2009 00:18:12 +0000

Has it really been so long? Japanese hipster/retro culture store Meteor has unveiled this year’s My Famicase exhibition, an arena for 58 Japanese designers and artists to create fictional NES game labels, adhered to cartridges just like the real thing.

Sadly, even by Japanese standards most of these games are too bizarre to coexist peacefully in our world, and it is with a heavy heart that I’ve resigned myself to the fact I will never get to play Look at the Rainbow, Loveletter or the lengthily-titled Because it is Strong, it is Stout, it is Courageous, and it is Popular. Kauji in Childhood in my lifetime.

Do you remember about 6 months ago we posted this article about glitchy mashups from loading mismatched ROMS?
Of course you do.

And do you remember thinking… this is great but its a shame they could never be playable…
Well someone thought it…

ROM CHECK FAIL is an ingenious way to pack more nostalgia into you gaming time than ever before, the result is a wonderfully chaotic walk down memory lane…
