ActionGeek Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 I'm sure that alot of you out there watch AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE on Adult Swim, late at night on Cartoon Network, right? So you know the pixelated characters known as the Mooninites, right? Why hasn't anyone with a yen for programming gone and done an Aqua Teen / Mooninites 2600 game that could be a ROM, a cart for sale, etc etc? It'd be a great tie-in! links: http://www.adultswim.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 there are more great ideas for homebrew VCS games then there are programmers willing to spend the time needed to complete the games (for very little reward i may add) besides, if there is any Aquateen inspired homebrew game to be made, my choice would be Video Ouiji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 The original idea for the Mooninites was that they were supposed to be renegade characters from a VCS game, but the writers said that they couldn't do all of the background on them in a 12 minute cartoon. If you notice, however, they think everything from about 25 years ago is "superior"... like they were from the early 80's. Pretty funny...

kevin242 Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 Just to add to what the last poster said. I read the original idea was that after Atari buried those cartridges in an Arizona landfill these wierd creatures mutated.... but they couldnt make the story brief enough (the episodes are only like 11 minutes long) so they just decided to make them come from the moon. I never noticed they think everything from 25 years ago is superior, I know they think everything from the moon is superior: Ignignot: You and your third dimension. Frylock: What about it? Ignignot: Oh nothing, it's cute. We have five. Ur: Th-thousand. Ignignot: Yes, five thousand. Ur: Don't question it! Frylock: Oh yeah? Well, I only see two. Ignignot: Well that sounds like a personal problem. Ignignot: Using a key to gouge expletives on another's vehicle is a sign of trust and friendship. Ur: On the Moon, nerds get their pants pulled down and they are spanked with Moonrocks. Ignignot: Let us leave this primitive rock because there's nothing but cavemen here. Ur: Say goodbye, cavemen. Go beat rocks together, you sissies! Freakin' nerds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I astarted a hack of Pigs in Space one time that used the ATHF characters, but never finished it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82-T/A Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Holy crap, that's funny has hell.. has anyone watched that episode where Meatwad plays Video Ouiji? He's playing on a wood grain Atari 2600! Damn, someone really SHOULD do Video Ouiji, or Insult Master 3000. You could have Shake, and the Moonenites, etc! Would anyone object to letting me try? Or am I stepping on anyone's toes? First thing I would do would be to e-mail Adult Swim and ask them for permission. Maybe I'll get a response? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad2600 Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I'm very supportive of an idea like this. If a game can be made for Homestar Runner, I don't see why there can't be a game for ATHF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty funny... CV Earl says the 80s were superior while his middle finger is extended up:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
