• Game Boy ad keeps it classy. Here’s an old UK Game Boy ad that shows how Tetris is way more enticing than a tied up chica. Through personal experience, we have to agree. [TinyCartridge]

• Pac-Man papercraft is making us wanna wakka wakka. It’s kinda scary seeing Pac-Man chow down on a live ghost, but what do you expect from a pellet addict. [Offworld]

• WoW, this My Little Pony is nerdy. How nerdy? Well, it based on a World of WarCraft mount. Yeah, told you. [wow.com]
