Tekken publisher Bandai Namco has made a somewhat odd move in attempting to trademark the term "Hissatsuwaza," which translates in English to "Finishing Move."
...as absurd as this is, I was always under the impression that hissatsuwaza stood for "deadly tactic" and was just something that was used to describe special moves and has nothing to do with 'finishing moves'.

How could Bamco trademark something that has been a part of Japanese pop culture since the early 90s?

My mind was blown.. how come these are not used as common promotional items? Like one that says "hadouken!"?

New remade Gobots are being released soon. They are now owned by Hasbro, and will be presented as part of the TF brand I believe.

Had a nightmare about builders using my arcade stools to do work. The legs folded inwards and when I went to straighten them they snapped off. Woke up with arm stretched out...pretty ***ked up because we all know the legs will go outwards with excessive weight.

What with family life and work I don't contribute here half as much as I once did, so quite surprised that I've racked up 3000 posts :-o

Must be getting old.

After doing a fair amount of tinkering on my cabs of late, my knees (of which 1 is particularly dodgy anyway) have really been giving me gyp.

As a result I've been looking around for a decent kneeler :shifty:
