When you’re out risking your life to save humanity each and every day, a few drinks, a little gambling and maybe a prostitute or two is forgivable. This Marvel Comics-themed slot machine comes refurbished from Japanese casinos and features a fully animated LCD screen and “Skill Stop” reels which require you to control when the reel stops—adding an element of skill to the game.

I think the description on the box says it best:
Join Mr. Bacon on a mouth-watering mosey through Meatland! On your journey, you’ll have to navigate your way through the Mustard Marsh, cross the eerie expanse of Wiener Wasteland and sail on the Sausage Sea. If you make it past the deceptive detour of Vegan Alley and avoid getting grounded in Gristle Grotto, you might just make it to the Great Frying Pan at the end of the trail.
Truly, this is a fat-drenched adventure of a lifetime for bacon fans everywhere. Additional images are available after the break.
Someone has finally caught on to the board game potential of prison with the “Don’t Drop the Soap” game. The objective, as stated on the product page, is to ”Fight your way through 6 different exciting locations in hopes of being granted parole. Escape prison riots in The Yard, slip glass into a mob boss’ lasagna in the Cafeteria, steal painkillers from the nurse’s desk in the Infirmary, avoid being cornered by the Aryans in the Shower Room, fight off Latin Kings in Gang War, and try not to smoke your entire stash in The Hole.” Did I mention that you also get 5 collectible criminal tokens including a Gat and a bag of coke? Now that is some wholesome family entertainment.

I have seen toy versions of the Covenant Energy Sword from Halo 3 in the past, but sissy plastic toys are for little girls and people who can make a clear distinction between right and wrong. A replica with two spectrum treated 19-inch stainless steel blades are for real men. The kind of men that don’t think before they act and send in homemade videos to the guys from Jackass.
If you are wondering, the spectrum treatment gives the metal color-changing properties that mimic the effect seen on the blade in the game. Also comes with wall plaque. Additional image after the break.
This confusingly creative vinyl contraption is the work of artist Erick Scarecrow. As a child he dreamed of creating his own arcade games without the “gray hairs of a big budget.” His solution was to develop a vinyl toy that users can decorate any way they please using paint, markers, pencils, etc (Soopa stickers are also included to help you customize your cabinet). Essentially it is one of those “use your imagination toys.” Listen, I play real video games so I don’t have to think ok?
Soopa is also running a VIP access program that involves gold coins hidden in the first run of select vinyl cabinets. So if you are lucky enough to find one, you have the exclusive right to buy more crap from them. Yaaaaay!

Show your contacts and potential clients that you are a respected professional that means business with one of these retro NES card holders. The image quality on this product is horrible, but these cases apparently come in Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros, Zelda, Ice Climber or Balloon Fight and Famicom controller versions.

You are probably already familiar with the plug and play line of TV games, but this new version allows you to take control with a little Wall-E robot replica. Apparently, it is loaded up with four games—but the titles and plots of those games remain a mystery. Probably doesn’t matter all that much though. It could play ET and Aquaman and people would still buy it.

From Fashionably Geek: If the answer is “to the right,” then your beef rocket will be pointing right at a gaming system that was ahead of its time. A fitting tribute if you ask me.
