Minus World Psych Ward: September 3, 2008

Case File: MW-090308-02

Subject Name(s): Little Mac

Subject Little Mac started consulting with us over 20 years ago and is one of the oldest patients at our offices. When he first started coming in December of 1988 he complained of migraines and muscle pains. During his first visit, he was quoted as saying, “I would punch out of work at the drug store around 4pm and Doc Louis would pick me up and I’d train for around 8 hours. He also gave me back rubs between rounds. He told me it was for optimum muscle relaxation.” We sent him home with a prescription for Valium and recommended some bed rest and time away from fighting.

A T-Shirt Rugged Enough To Bite Your Ear Off

agent b on June 19th, 2008

Besides being (one of the) very busy (and amazingly talented, yeah that’s right!) artists who help keep this site looking so fresh, I frequently dip into some side freelance stuff that isn’t always related to the-minusworld.com. It’s especially rare and exciting when I get a gig designing something video game related. Recently I teamed up with the hip hop site Philaflava.com and created a line of tees inspired by iconic pixelated faces, one of which of course being the legendary Mike Tyson of Punch-Out! fame. He deserves some NES inspired shine after getting ditched for Mr. Dream later in his video game career. The shirts are on some 8-bit on steroids type shit and rest comfortably on a baby blue tee. To pick one up or check out the rest of the lineup (which includes rapper Ghostface Killah and even Curb’s Larry David) just head on over here. You won’t find a doper video game shirt this summer and if you do, mine can still beat yours up.

Punch-Out: The Most Racist Video Game Ever Made

Sub Farooq on March 3rd, 2008

And in the nineteenth hundred and ninetieth year A.D., the Lord created Super Nintendo…and it was good. Upon its American release, people flocked to their nearest video game retailer and embraced the new console as a welcomed diversion from their meaningless lives filled with crappy sitcoms (i.e. Step by Step) and hair metal (i.e. Night Ranger). Also, in the same year, Nintendo decided to rename the titles of one of their most popular 8-bit games (Mike Tyson’s Punch Out!) to simply “Punch Out!.”

Truth be told, people shouldn’t give two shits about old school Nintendo game names after Super Nintendo came out …hell, I don’t think Nintendo really cared in the first place (c’mon guys…. Rad Racer? Really?). Most people who were into video games were too busy playing Super Mario World to care about 8-bit titles….even if “Dig-Dug” had been changed to “Super Pedophile Cocaine Master” on the older console. Who cares about the past when it comes to stuff like this? Worry about the present people. That’s like our government right now cracking down on pornography by destroying old 8mm burlesque footage of two-hundred pound broads in pasties flopping around to swing music while the kiddies pound off to trannies online.
