There's a Japanese baseball game on the Wii that, in its original release, could actually destroy your console by locking the CPU into an infinite loop until it overheats & damages itself.

At least not working at all is better than LOK2, which was supposed to lower enemies' evasion but instead raised it.
Final Fantasy I as originally released is such a hilariously broken game.

It had one episode that approached decent-ish. The rest weren't good.
And that was the assessment from critics & audiences at the time as well.

And here we see the Avengers operating as an agent of American imperialism. Conspiring with a leader rejected by their citizens to restore him to power.
"Loyal only to the dream," Cap? For shame.

According to the wiki they're separated & Herc's been married at least one more time since.
Regardless, she hasn't shown up since 2011.

I dunno, Janet. "The Submarine's gone off to Atlantis" doesn't really seem like it means any more than what it says.

I assume probably some point after they started requiring more education, training, certification, &c. But I don't entirely know for sure.

There was a minor blow-up about a decade ago when a biography of Joseph Mitchell, one of The New Yorker's great writers, revealed that he'd just made a lot of stuff up.
And the thing was, he'd admitted to some of this during his lifetime. It was just ignored or accepted.

A new book sheds light on @newyorker's Joseph Mitchell

They kind of implied it's Wonder Boy IV when they released Wonder Boy in Monster World for the Japanese Mega Drive as Wonder Boy V: Monster World III.
Though that also came out 6 months before this one's first JP release on Game Gear as Monster World II. Some days I think Sega just hated numbers.

Farley Mowat was also a major touchpoint in Canadian culture into at least the '80s. I remember reading "Owls in the Family" in school.

Loons have strikingly red eyes. One of the entries from the state flag design search a few years back turned those eyes into lasers.
And since then the laser loon has shown up everywhere.

This is one of the SMS games I own loose where I feel I really should track down a box for it.
Unlike a lot of the early games, this one actually has artwork instead of just looking like a doodle on graph paper.

There are better ways to play it now, but the SMS version is the one with the FM soundtrack. Of course, this version also only* ever saw release in North America & Europe, which never got the FM unit, so…
