New Caltron / Myriad Variant Found!
So, I'm driving down this dirt road in the country side. My wife and my best friend are with me. I've got a wad full of cash in my front pocket. I'm not sure where we are, or where I'm going, but I know I have to be somewhere.
Also in the front seat with me is a ripped up game poster. It's green, but so much of it has been ripped off, I'm not really sure what game it goes to.
I pull in to this trailer-ish looking house. I'm greeted by some thugs at the door. I ask them if they have it ready for me to have a look at... They point me into the house.
As I walk in, the smell of cigar smoke is over whelming, but I continue. Two more hired goons are waiting on the inside, as is another man. The man spins around in his chair. His receding hair line is greasy and gelled slick. He greets me with a strong Italian accent.
He asks me if I have the money. I ask if he has the goods. He points to the shelf on the far wall.
I stare for a moment, trying to focus on what looks to be a NES game, but in a box I've never seen before. It's green, with blue writing. I walk over to have a closer look. As I reach out to grab it, one of the thugs caulks a gun in my face.
"Not before the money," he says.
As he finishes his sentence, two gun shot are heard outside. All of us inside spin around to see what happened. I grab the game on the shelf and hit the floor.
The door is kicked open. My friend runs in and starts shooting up the place. I struggle to crawl for cover. I manage to find myself under a desk. The Italian man has also taken to low ground, but in the process, dropped his cigar, which ignites the curtains. Thick smoke fills the room as the two goons are dispatched.
I realize at this point that I have to get out. I hear my wife calling, but can't see her. I sneak from the desk towards the front door, game in hand. I rise to gain speed, but am met with a sharp pain in my lower back, followed by silence and nothing. I'd been shot.
As I regain my focus, the Italian man has run passed me, grabbing my wad of cash in the process. My friend drags me to safety... I'm still gripping the green and blue box tightly in my left hand.
I make it back to the car, who is now being driven by my wife. As I'm dumped into the back seat, the green poster in the front seat falls into the back with me.
I'm shot, and probably dying, but I need to open the box. I pull the game out gently, trying not to damage the box, though my blood has already spotted it. As I pull the game out, a torn poster falls from the box. It's the other half of the poster I already had.
It all made sense now. As I lined up the pieces of poster, the words on the poster spelled "Myriad, Not for Resale Demo".
I was so thrilled to have something that no one else had, that I didn't care that the GodFather had gotten away with my money, or that my best friend was Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator, and that I was letting my wife drive the car with me in it...
Moral of the story is... Don't eat ice cream before going to bed... that shit will fuck you up!

I didnt have ice cream but i sure as hell had some wierd NES dreams. Last night I had this dream where i walked into this retro videogame store that had loose carts on the floor in piles and on shelves, and CIBs. One of the carts on the floor was The Adventures of Lolo, but it was a tengen version?? I passed by it thinking nothing of it and continued looking at the games, a few seconds later I thought wait a minute was that Lolo a tengen version?! And when looked back in the pile of carts it wa gone, wierd dream...
There were also dreams I've had like finding Gimmick for the snes, or a castlevnia controller shaped like the axe powerups.
Just kidding, Batty you crack me up.. Thanks for the laugh this early in the morning.
