Zero Wing
A 1989 horizontal shoot 'em up arcade game that was also ported a year later to the PC Engine CD-ROM (known outside of Japan as the TurboGrafx-CD) only in Japan and the SEGA Mega Drive (SEGA Genesis in America) only in Japan and Europe. It didn't catch much attention, due to being viewed by many to be just another unoriginal horizontal space shoot 'em up while lacking advertisements. It stayed obscure until late 2000 when the opening of the European version of its SEGA Mega Drive port was discovered as a mistranslation and was used by Kansas City computer programmer and part-time DJ, Jeffrey Ray Roberts, then aged 23, from the Gabber band "The Laziest Men on Mars" created a techno dance track titled "Invasion of the Gabber Robots", which remixed some of the Zero Wing video game music by Tatsuya Uemura, Toshiaki Tomisawa, and Masahiro Yuge, with electronic versions of the quotes from its intro. Most notably "All your base are belong to us", said by an antagonist named CATS, which is similar to "owned", a slang word that originated among 1990s hackers, where it referred to "rooting" or gaining administrative control over another person's PC. This became an Internet meme for a long period of time and is still being used today, even against the arcade and PC Engine CD-ROM versions, although they lack the infamous opening and don't show CATS nor Engrish.

Perfect gift for my gf
Looks great! Came quick
Gave it to my nerd brother. He used it consume liquid
Love it
as a fan of non-Z-generation-UD (since 2000 more or less) , especially of old-school definitions ("phat!") (as Nick, the more time passes by, the more I reach my inner age = 75 XD) , I totally appreciated the delivery in time for Christmas! (whispering) Perhaps printing quality in the Spain printing company is not as good as in the US, but - hey! - I got it before Christmas as a gift for my thank-God-non-Gen-Z-sister! ;) hugs from the eighties, and from Italy, and thanks!

Like the mug for my daughter, but didn’t notice that I had color choices when checking out. The yellow was pre-set so I got that color. Would much rather have selected a different color.
