SDCC: The Adventure Time Videogame Makes Me Sad I Hate the 3DS
Note: I don’t really hate the 3DS. I hate handheld gaming, just like I hate PC gaming (I need my videogames to be accessible from a couch, but also visible on a large TV screen [Note: I don’t like playing games on my iPhone either, except in times of purest necessity]). But the Adventure Time videogame, wonderfully subtitled Hey Ice King! Why’s You Steal Our Garbage?, looks so fantastic I’m actually a bit sad I don’t have the capacity to handle holding a 3DS. It’s due in October; maybe I should use that time to talk to a psychoanalyst or something. Not about the 3DS, I just have a lot of mental problems. (Via Kotaku)
