Q*Bert was one of my favorite games to play on my Atari 2600 when I was a kid so seeing this flash remake, flash*bert, made me giddy.  It's not the same experience without the Atari joysticks that cramp up your hands, but still a fun game to play.

This weekend's Lazy Weekend Links are dedicated to commercials from the 80s. 

Here is a Game Boy 2-in-1 Arcade Classics commercial with a belly-jiggling, disco-dancing, goldchain-wearing, John Travolta wannabe.   Warning: Hairy chest shot at the end.

Just three words, "Where's the beef?"  I know Wendy's came out with a slew of "Where's the beef?" commercials, but I believe this was the original commercial that started it all. 

The NES Power Glove never worked, but the commercial sure is amusing. 

This is a very cool Atari commercial, "What will we come up with next."  Kids these days will never be able to appreciate gaming from our generation.

Have a good holiday weekend and stuff yourself senseless with your Thanksgiving leftovers.
