Japan's ability to make funny little guys you can also eat is pretty unparalleled

A little sweet potato guy which has marshmallow for eyes and vanilla cream in its mouth

Hamburger little guy. A big "tongue" made of bacon is spilling out and it has little bits of cooked egg yolk for eyes

Have you ever seen the genuinely fantastic Japanese box art for this game? The package designer took a look at this funny skeleton with a guitar and went, "Hey that kinda reminds me of the Grateful Dead" and ran with it

Japanese box art for Mr. Bones on the Sega Saturn, borrowing many motifs from Grateful Dead posters and iconography, juxtaposing the game's own skeleton imagery with roses, ornate borders and rainbow gradients.

When you get a chance to put Retsuprae in a museum exhibit, you put Retsuprae in a museum exhibit.

RIP to a real one.

Itagaki: "At first it was easier, but when the testers said 'this is too difficult' I made it even more difficult"

Quote from IGN: "For me, the highlight of the evening was watching Ninja Gaiden creator Tomonobu Itagaki walk into the event in this white robe, taking in the scene behind his traditional sunglasses. He looked around a few times, stood quietly for a few moments and then turned around and left."
