Nyan Cat NES Game

Nyan Cat NES Game

Most people think Nyan Cat is a more recent internet meme, but he’s actually been around for quite a while! I never had a chance to play this one when I was a kid… although I heard if you enter the Konami code you could unlock Taco Dog! My friend swore it was true!

    Customer: "Dude, this is f-ing awesome!"
    Cashier: "Well, I suppose it is pretty…"
    *cashier puts on sunglasses*
    "…sweet."

    Seto_Kaiba: "I don't scream, I win."

    Puns aside, I'd totally buy that 20 years ago.

    Review: Minimum graphics that seem to repeat endlessly with little actual game play, this game is doomed to the marked-down discount bin. The only saving grace is the catchy music loop soundtrack which is so addicting that I've seen other members of the magazine leave the game on overnight just to listen to. -- Nintendo Power, May 1989

    This is more mindeating than Planet Chasers: Starlight Excellent.

    Anypony know if there is an Atari version?

  5. jyndtactica on August 12th, 2011 10:37 am

    I remember that game!
    The sequel on Virtual Boy is what killed the series unfortunately…
    It lost its concept, rainbows cannot be made with red and black.

    Wonder when they'll release the soundtrack for it; the music was awesome!

    You know, it's the little things like the KB Toys price sticker that really sells it for me.

    God, I haven't seen a KB Toys since… I bought that kick ass Ganondorf figure when I was eight…

    Just wait. In ten years they'll go 3D and it'll ALL go down the shitter.

    Shouldn't Tac Nayn be waffle DOG?

    Joke time!
    The DLC will be additional costumes for Nyan Cat, such as Nyeh Cat, Nyan Scout, and Nyan Hoovy. Which is fucking AWESOME.

    This is already implied, but I'm gonna say it anyways.
    Shut up and take my money!

    Warning: Clinical tests have shown that the sound track exhibits effects on the brain similar that of THC. Prolonged exposure can eventually lead to coma and even death. Use at your own risk.

    Shawn's got this all wrong, it never came out, it's been on a 24 year hiatus, even Duke Nukem Fans can't remember how long it's been in development. I still have my ticket though, in 24 more years I'll be ready to renew it.

    I'll be the only one with the ultra-secret pre-order Fancy-french-food Mouse.

    You scan that bar code and it rings up as one Kitten Pastry

  22. Ovahdrive on August 12th, 2011 5:51 pm

    So is Waffle Cat flying through hell? Or like, skull-lava, whatever that is. Skullava.

  23. Ernac on August 12th, 2011 6:31 pm

    OBJECTION!
    Tac Nayn's body is rectangular in the pixel art, but round in the box art!

  24. Anon on August 12th, 2011 6:37 pm

    You know that this is just a box art made by an J. R. Barker right… Jeez… U all been troll’d… -_-
