Oh, hi there. My name's Zen. I make stuff using computers, pixels, bleeps and bloops. When I'm not doing that, I come here to write about all of the neat things I find on the interblags. Isn't that swell? I think we're going to get along just fine.

Famicom BPS-Max controller. In the US, the Max was a first-party Nintendo product, but, like the Power Pad, it originated as a third-party device, originally sold by Tetris publisher Bullet Proof Software.
I don’t know how people feel about the Max these days, but I love everything about it — the grips, the tiny size, the unique and almost completely pointless disc-based D-pad. As far as I know, the Max stands alone in that design, which probably says a lot about how other people feel about it, given the influence every other Nintendo controller had on future generations.
More than anything, I love the dedicated turbo buttons.
This new-in-box BPS Max (for use with Famicom only!) is available on eBay for $40.

I arrived at Pulsewave just in time to completely miss this amazing set by IAYD. I will never forgive myself.

Indian Thriller (via cubertlee)

Not the most telling of tributes, but certainly the funniest.

Best KBC yet. I promise I’ll stop after this one.

Game Fighter, a horizontal Game Boy clone.
This rare handheld loads original Game Boy carts and apparently has a clearer screen than the system it’s modeled after. I’d love to have this my collection (Protip: my birthday is less than a month away)!
