From Wikipedia:

HeroQuest, sometimes also written as Hero Quest, is an adventure board game that was created by Milton Bradley in conjunction with the British company Games Workshop and set in the latter’s Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe, as shown by a map of the Warhammer ‘Old World’ being printed on the back of the Quest Book for the Return of the Witch Lord expansion pack. The game was based loosely around archetypes of fantasy role-playing games: the game itself was actually a game system, allowing the gamemaster (called “Zargon” in the US, “Morcar” in the UK) to create dungeons of his or her own design using the provided game board, tiles, furnishings and monsters.

From Wikipedia:

Nintendo’s Virtual Boy (バーチャルボーイ, Bācharu Bōi?) (also known as the VR-32 and Virtual Utopia Experience during development) was the first video game console capable of displaying “true 3D graphics” out of the box. Most video games are forced to use monocular cues to achieve the illusion of three dimensions on a two-dimensional screen, but the Virtual Boy was able to create a more accurate illusion of depth through the effect known as parallax. In a manner similar to using a head-mounted display, the user looks into an eyepiece made of neoprene on the front of the machine, and then an eyeglass-style projector allows viewing of the monochromatic (in this case, red) image.

From Wikipedia:

The Armatron was a toy from the 1980s made by TOMY and distributed by Radio Shack. It consisted of a crane-like arm with two attached joysticks which could be manipulated to pick up small objects. It is essentially similar to industrial robots of the 1980s, though it is strictly user-controlled, with no automation built in. The Armatron existed in both the original fixed version and a mobile version with a wired remote. It included an “energy level” indicator (actually a countdown timer) and a series of objects such as boxes and spheres designed to be manipulated by the arm.

From Wikipedia:

Mighty Max was a series of toys which were manufactured by Bluebird Toys PLC in the UK in 1992. The toys were similar to the earlier Polly Pocket toyline; however, these toys were marketed primarily towards young boys. In Canada and the USA, they were distributed by Irwin Toy Limited. and Mattel Inc. respectively. The original toyline consisted mainly of “Doom Zones” and “Horror Heads.” “Doom Zones” were small playsets with a horror theme and featured miniature figurines of menacing creatures and the hero Max, a young boy with blond hair, jeans, a white t-shirt with a red “M” on it, and a baseball cap (the color varied based on the playset purchased) which also always had an “M” on it. The “Horror Heads” were smaller-sized playsets, also shaped like the heads of creatures and contained miniature figures. It was later adapted as a TV series and in a Super Nintendo game.

From Wikipedia:

VR Troopers (Virtual Reality Troopers) was a syndicated live action show produced by Saban (creators of the similar Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series) from 1994 to 1996. The show tried to profit from the short-lived Virtual Reality fad of the 1990s as well as the success of Power Rangers. The show featured early CGI and video effects mixed with Japanese stock footage from three different Metal Hero Series: Super Machine Man Metalder, Dimensional Warrior Spielban, and Space Sheriff Shaider. This kind of adaptation technique, turning multiple shows into one show, was originally used in anime with shows like Robotech and Voltron. This was the first and only time this was used for a tokusatsu adaptation.

I don’t know how many other people get upset when product logos change, but I sure as hell do. I used to love the old Bud Light logo, and I think the “updated” logo is completely stupid looking. Grabbing a cold bottle out of the cooler at the lake used to mean something, something special and pure. Now, when I grab a beer and see the new logos I get super pissed off and don’t even feel like binge drinking. That totally sucks. R.I.P. old Bud Light logo.
