9. I feel so bad for those folks
nothing like the smiling insane fascist overseer! I took my kid to a Banned Books reading last night and my friend who is a DJ at a local alternative station read a passage from Orwell's 1984... I had forgotten how creepy it was and how the double speak seems so prevalent now.

13. Can't be Zaxon, that never came out for the NES did it?
And besides, Zaxon was a diagonal scroller.

Check that one kid with the Nike backpack...
