Out of the blue, I remembered the whole "Bob's Game" fiasco and decided to see what's up with it.

Wow.

This guy's really got some guts, locking himself in a room for 100 days trying to get his game finished.

I could never do that.

I hope he succeeds on his project, and I hope he can get the big N to notice like he wanted to.

he claims to have spent five

he claims to have spent five years locked in his room, so i don't see how this is much of a protest.

i'm kind of amazed he can fit his ego in that room, though.

Wow. I fear for whatever

Wow. I fear for whatever sanity he has left.

It's odd that, despite all

It's odd that, despite all that time spent working on it, the result doesn't really look like a game. He hasn't mentioned any point or goal to the whole thing from what I've heard.

Which is probably the only thing I've heard of the game that interests me.

Nintendo, you cannot

Nintendo, you cannot continue ignoring me.

There is nobody like me. I have created the entire game, start to finish.
I am far better than Miyamoto, Itoi, Kojima, Carmack, and Wright COMBINED.
NONE of these "designers" could create the entire thing if their lives depended on it!
They rely on the assistance of others- and take all the credit. They don't even deserve their titles! I have bested them all by far.

"bob's game" is a game by ONE PERSON, and it's one of the GREATEST GAMES EVER MADE- if not THE BEST.
I stand alone on a mountain no other has even dared to climb. I have swam across the ocean only cruise ships could cross.
I have walked through the desert of no return. I have stepped in the footprints of none, a path never taken.
I have MADE HISTORY, and history cannot be undone. It's too late, Nintendo.

No man has ever accomplished what I have accomplished at 25 years old- it's no wonder you fear accepting this truth!
My work has humiliated your teams of engineers. One young man- singlehandedly- has made their lifetime of work seem like child's play.
How can they possibly compete with such overwhelming skill? It's not even fair, is it? That's too bad, Nintendo. I'm real, and I'm here.
You can't ignore me forever. I AM RIGHT, AND IT WILL WORK.

I am the GREATEST GAME DEVELOPER THAT EVER LIVED.
I am a GENIUS, and I will be around for the next 40 years- eating away at your company until it exists no longer.
I will find way after way to slowly destroy your bottom line, and your business will fail.
The name NINTENDO will be forgotten, a discarded husk like so many others.
"bob's game" will live on FOREVER.

THOSE WHO DOUBT ME- YOU WILL BE PROVEN WRONG.
IN TIME THE TRUTH WILL PREVAIL.
PREPARE TO EAT YOUR WORDS.

YES, I AM COMPLETELY SERIOUS!

WHO'S TAKING NAMES NOW, REGGIE?!

...I'm scared.

BOB'S WRATH

God, I hope it's just some dude trolling.

When's day 100 -- March 22nd? If so, that's very close to a KOTM.

It looks like his argument

It looks like his argument is that if he releases Bob's Game as homebrew, it will be so amazing that everyone will buy flashcarts to run it, and, as a byproduct, piracy, now a trivial for all, will run so rampant that Nintendo will be destroyed. (Search for 2009-01-03, but there's more of the same argument below it.)

I don't think you could make this up if you tried.

Also, have any of you seen the month-long time lapse video of him in his underpants? It's terrifying.

"bob's game" 2009 RAIDED BY

"bob's game" 2009
RAIDED BY THE POLICE WHILE FAKING HIS OWN DEATH ON WEBCAM AND DOESN'T AFRAID OF ANYTHING!
IM ALIVE!
Thanks to all concerned for the response, sorry to everyone disappointed by my lack of death, BIGGEST UPDATE IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND TOMORROW!
SORRY, REGGIE!

An explanation: Bob faked

An explanation: Bob faked his death by trashing his room and recording himself laying still. His webcam feed consisted of a loop of three of these images. Thus: according to Kotaku:

"As you can see from the trashed state of his development studio, it didn't work. He called things off around Day 30, with a long, defeated message (below, in its entirety). Some guy over on 4chan's /v/ board said he got a phone number off of Bob's WHOIS info and got in touch with his sister, asking her to call his friends, send someone over, check on him, as there has been no motion on the webcam for a couple hours."

Thus, the cops ended up getting called.
