Holy moly.. what I wouldn’t give to travel back in time with an adult paycheck to this Target store back in 1988. The only thing that could top this for me would be a trip to Toys ‘R Us back in the day!
It’s the stuff dreams are made of.
The Death of Jason Prairie (10 Year Anniversary)
Who actually owned an NEC TurboGrafx 16?
I can absolutely remember seeing commercials for various Bonk video games growing up but I didn’t know a single person that owned a TurboGrafx 16. To this date and even after years of yard sales and collecting vintage games I’ve never seen one in person, nor do I know anyone who has one.
Enjoy this piece of nostalgia I found on a VHS tape.

The Buffalo (formerly Famously)
The Buffalo recorded an EP and Mike Neary (Neary Studios) was there to capture the magic.
The album “Sufficient Conditions” will soon be released here at RAKIBIRD as a compilation with bonus tracks from a Famously recording session.

Chaps X-Games: Xtreme Tote Rafting
Chaps Reloaded (The Matrix)
The year was 2000. A group of young amateur filmmakers were spending their free time shooting comedy sketches for their show “Chaps”, which aired on public access in Eau Claire and Chippewa Falls. “The Matrix” inspired a few of these parody videos including this one used as the show intro to the final episode (57).
Even though the acting was shoddy at best and wardrobe was non-existent, the editing and comedic timing in many spots still stands strong 15 years later.
SNES Famicom Edition
SNES Famicom Edition
This poor, sad old console was in need of a lot of love so I decided to rehab it back to functionality.. and then some.
The color scheme is a tribute to the console that started it all – The Nintendo Family Computer (or Famicom). It’s my own special color scheme to bring back to glory this mighty machine.
I’ve also modded the system to accept Japanese Super Famicom carts (SFC) for a bit more authenticity.
