there's a longer version of the song featured in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Coming Out Of Their Shells", probably the most important concert documentary after Scorsese's "The Last Waltz"

I love that there's an entry on Genius dot com for the song's lyrics, which helpfully informs you that no, you should not feed pizza to a turtle

Picture from Genius dot com featuring annotated lyrics for "Pizza Power". A section is highlighted: "But pizza power / A flying saucer food delight / Pizza power / Oh that's what makes us feel alright". The annotation reads: Contrary to what this song condones, not only is pizza something an actual turtle shouldn't be fed, but pizza is not a very healthy choice of food for people (unless you get it with a lot of vegetables and tomato sauce, then cut down on the cheese).

one of my fav arcade flyers is just a picture of burger

Arcade flyer for "BurgerTime" that shows a picture of a hamburger, with lettuce, tomato, and onions. Below it says: "Has Midway cooked up a hot one for you! See it at booths 1004 thru 1112 at the A.M.O.A. Show".

some really incredible sprites in this game
[ www.spriters-resource.com/arcade/momok... ]

Sprites from "Momoko 120%". They depict a girl wearing a red school uniform dress carrying some sort of zapper gun (looking kinda like the NES Zapper).

occasionally between levels you get to play this (surprisingly-involved) space trivia game (??), and if you get all the questions right, uh, this happens

not entirely sure how necessary it is to preserve the genetic code of former Sega employees, but whatever

"Ninja Gaiden" was developed by a secretive internal development team at Tecmo, “Strong Team”, consisting exclusively of the company’s most jacked employees

Image from the attract mode of "Ninja Garden", showing a red stage curtain with an emblem of a very muscular arm flexing, with the text "Strong" below it. Below the emblem, text reads: "Produced by Strong Team".
