Normally, yes, but the image is only 16x16 so perhaps the beak just didn't fit

I think a cult that worships snails would be far more inventive.

Might still be coffee, some of us like lots of cream and sugar in our coffee (like me for example)

One of the most irritating bits of poor translation. Couldn't they have checked the wording to make sure it makes even the slightest bit of sense?

Why it can't be a gameboy: The case is a grey color, meaning it would probably have to be an older gameboy (monochrome screen). Yet we look at the screen and see blue. It's definitly a MAC emulating windows 98 , thus the blue screen (BSOD). You can hardly tell but there's an error message written on it.

The kiwi (and yes, it is a kiwi) is from a classic platform game. I'll leave you all to figure out which one.

Cheers,

Lol, it's from Super Mario World World 2 : Yoshi's Island for the SNES, along with the penguin. I should know, I got a 100% on every level, even the bonus ones.

The New Zealand Story .

A very nice little platform game, sadly these classic arcade and computer platform games never get sequels (apart from Jetpac ).

Personally, I really liked Rodland, I loved the cutesy graphics in that, it was one of the first platform games I really enjoyed, probably my favourite apart from Rainbow Islands.

Here's a pic of the lovely Rodland.

Note the 2 player mode - WTF happend to 2 player platform games?

Here's a pic of our Kiwi friend in action.

One person in a cult that sad and pointless? There may as well be a SJR sticker slapped on it!

So in this self worshipping cult of yours do you have to worship your self worshipping yourself worshipping?

Stuff like that leads to a loop you know!

I said it was a MAC emulating windows. Isn't it possible to run windows software on a MAC with an emulater?
Aren't the bombs a Linux thing? I don't know how MACs crash...

Actually, the Atari ST used to show bombs when it did a crash - the number of bombs denoting the error number (or something).

the d-pad is actually a bullet hole, made when it's owner lost seven years of data due to a crash. The two red things aren't buttons but drops of blood from the suicide ensuing the loss of data.

That's a kiwi? Strange, I thought it was a Chicken McNugget on legs.

And there I was about to join a cult saying: "Glory to the small piece of fried chicken with blue feet"

Saying "Glory to the kiwi with blue feet" just isn't the same, ah well...
