Truly excellent. I especially appreciated "It's Fucking Checkers". Both poignant and short. Hemmingway would have been proud.

That Superman cover is um... somewhat suggestive. Or is it just me?

I had seen "It's Fucking Checkers" before, but not the others. Thanks for sharing!

I've Wasted My Life is the best!
Pixel Bondage and Every Sport Ever are funny, too. :)
I love the old Atari 2600 box artwork. Were many of them painted by the same artist?

I always thought this one should have been "Old-Timey Cop With A Stick Vs. Gallagher"
Other than that, they're perfect and brilliant!

Dots of War and I've Wasted My Life made me laugh out loud. Thanks for sharing these!

"Salvador Dali's Pinball Thrills" had me going pretty well, especially the "Tasty Pencils!" line. LOL

In a completely obscure cross-thread cross-over, is it just me or does the kid on the front of 'Obligatory Educational "Game"' look like the Satan-possessed kid from the Magnavox Odyssey ads posted here a while back?

Obligatory Educational "Game" FTW!
Those are hilarious.

I noticed that too, when I first saw it I'm like "woah...this isn't a sexual innuendo or anything..."

Also my favorite. "You really want this?"

The Warlords box art always reminded me of the Spanish Inquisition, not the Magna Carta.

MightyGodKing has been on my RSS list since he opened his site. He is one funny guy. You should see his comic book posts when he rewrites completely awful issues into something much, much better...
Oh, and you forgot one that isn't a shop:

Agreed! I love that one and the Buzz Aldrins Rainbow Tennis or whatever it was called. I have never seen these before, they are funny as hell.

"Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes" and certainly it is this time. For some time, I've been collecting many of the custom-designed Atari 2600 labels, mostly from the Atari Age forum users Marc Oberhäuser, Atariboy2600, and user42, as well as a ton I did myself. They include well known prototypes that were never released, fake labels for popular TV, movie and animated properties from the 2600 era, and even full sized labels (which should have been done) if M Network weren't using those dang carts of theirs. Photoshop, labelmaker2600.com, and here you go.....

I love fake labels, relabels, etc... I've got tons of images, though certainly not nearly all of them, on my hard drive.
Anybody remember Xymot (sp?) carts, or maybe even have any they don't want any more?
