Console Wars: Mistakes Were Made (or were they?)

There's a weird part of me that thinks video game companies during the "Console Wars" of the 90s, especially Sega and Nintendo... were trying to market to dudes... and being very successful at doing it. I may be wrong, but... what do I know? Of course, chicks play video games too, and always did, but it's almost like these companies didn't know or something because... well... something about how these things were marketed... I can't put my finger on it... doesn't seem like they were trying to appeal to "feminine sensibilities."

Yeah, here's why that was a bad idea:

1. Bigger is better confirmed.



2. Haha sex!




3. Underwear is all you really need.



4. OK, a second pair of underwear is all you need... (cuz poop)



5. Haha! OK, this one still works. 



6. Not so much this one...



7. You can lose your masculinity. 



8. Uh... not sure how I feel about this one... give me a few minutes...



9. "Groveling, spanking, decapitation, nut bustin', flying spit... rippin' a good long stun gun fart... suckin' heads up Rhino butts, BALLZ... and all the other stuff that makes life worth living." 


I KNOW how I feel about this one!



10. Haha. Playing with yer worm.



11. And finally: 



Luckily, times have changed and this would totally not happen now... right?
