It is time once again for Fun With Search Engines, the weekly site feature where I comment on some of the keywords that vistors to my site typed into various search engines. This FWSE report is for the week beginning May 20th and ending May 26th. As always, these are all real searches.
1. joe and mac 2 – Electric Boogaloo? Seriously though, there are three separate games that are in contention for the title of Joe & Mac 2. First, there’s Congo’s Caper, a SNES game released in Japan in 1992 and America in 1993. Caveman Ninja was known as Tatakae Genshijin in Japan, while Congo’s Caper was known as Tatakae Genshijin 2, making it the first official sequel. However, this game does not star Joe & Mac. It was followed by another SNES game, Tatakae Genshijin 3, which was released in the USA as Joe & Mac 2: Lost In The Tropics. However, you may remember that the original Joe & Mac game debuted in arcades. If you’re a purist, you may consider the 1994 arcde game Joe & Mac Returns to be the true Joe & Mac 2. At any rate, all three games are worth a try.
2. amy fisher – Here’s a joke I heard one time on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air:
Knock, knock!
Who’s there?
Amy Fisher.
Amy Fisher who?
BANG!
Incredibly dated? Yes. But it’s still pretty funny.
3. mickey mousecapades – First off, it’s called Mickey Mousecapade, singular. Secondly, if Nintendo ever put this game up for sale on the Wii Virtual Console, their servers would implode from its sheer awfulness; I’m surprised that The Legend of Kage hasn’t already managed to do this.
4. the ingredients of pepsi vs coke – All you really need to know is that Pepsi is sweeter.
5. super mario 2 how to beat frog – Let’s see…
A) His name is Wart.
B) You’re kidding, right? THROW FUCKING VEGETABLES AT HIM!
6. neked fuck site – Neked isn’t a word; neither is nekkid. So why don’t you go fuck yourself?
7. why are nes games so hard – Because you’re impatient and poorly trained. You lack discipline!
8. punchout gabby jay – Few people know this, but Super Punch-Out’s Gabby Jay was originally going to be a far more accurate caricature of French boxers. His name? Jabby Gay.
9. big robots with fucking lasers – That could be pretty much anything…
10. sly cooper porn – Well, that’s my cue to quit in disgust. See ya.
This FWSE has ended. Go in peace to love and serve pop culture.
