Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

LOL!


Anyway, this is probably the coolest thing on Ebay. I kinda wish Planet Hollywood would snatch him up and use him as a door greeter though. :)

What?  They're selling him on eBay?!!!  Oh sure, kidnap the humans, liquidate the MACHINE!!!  OOOOOH!!!  And for only $120,000?  In 1988 he was worth $11,002,076 and 17 cents!

Amend that to 'a licensed short circuit video game for common consoles'.  Otherwise....

I'd rather have a Mark 13 robot. Johnny 5 only got mad at people,Mark 13 would drill their f*ckin eyes out and cut them into tiny bits with its chainsaw limb.

I was just recently thinking about how cool a short circuit game would be for the turbo!

That and a transformers game . . .
