The Year 20XX Lookbook
Posted: 09/11/2011The future is mechanoids. The future is parasitic. The future is war and destruction. The future is female robots locked in a sensual embrace. The future is now. Meat Bun’s 20XX line is here.
Metoroido (natural) and Wily Inc (tri-black)Bonus round! While technically not part of the 20XX line, we figured we would do a little extra credit and include these gems.

Giant Robot’s Game Night 5: Conglaturation! Great Success!!
Posted: 07/04/2011
Thanks to Haunted Temple’s Skulls of the Shogun and Reverge Labs’ Skullgirls, Giant Robot’s Game Night 5 was a big old success. Our late June Game Night was one of the biggest yet, with folks swarming the game stations indoors and outdoors, helping us stay open and running way later than planned.
Credit to Adam Robezzoli of Attract Mode fame and the Angry Bananas Extra thanks to the big crowds of game enthusiasts, game developers and Meat Bun fans for coming out to show their support of indie games and local game events. Take a look at some of the snapshots from the night’s event, with way more over at the Giant Robot blog. (There are a few Meat Bun sneak peeks at the next couple lines in here, if you’re curious!)

Scenes from ReveLAtions
Posted: 06/26/2011
Tournament Legacy’s ReveLAtions tournament went down just after E3 2011 in Los Angeles, a chance for the best of the best (of the best) fighting game players to win big money, big prizes. Meat Bun was there to represent and offer a sneak peak at some of our future Street Fighter-inspired designs. (Coming soon. (Promise.))
There’s Daigo Umehara, holding up a fresh Meat Bun tee, training for the eventual holding of things that he’d have to do at the end of the Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition tourney.

The inexhaustible Jason was there, holding down the fort.

Just a few of the winners from ReveLAtions. Can you spot the new Meat Bun gear?

Daigo again, holding up the requisite giant novelty check.
Thanks to the Tournament Legacy crew, Mad Catz, Broken Tier and everyone else at RevLA for being great hosts and friends. Next time, we’ll see you at EVO 2K11.

Everything Must Go!
Posted: 06/03/2011
Happy E3 everyone! To celebrate a great week of video games (and to make room for all the new stuff we have coming to the store), everything in the Meat Bun shop has been marked down to 50% off! O_O!!!
There are limited sizes and colors available right now, but if you’ve been waiting for things to get super cheap before investing in, say, a Snack Attack tee or that Eggplant Wiz shirt you’ve been eyeing for a very very long time, now’s your chance. Seriously, stock is in the single digits on everything here, so don’t wait!
Tons of new stuff is coming after E3, so stay tuned!

A Preview Of The Year 20XX…
Posted: 02/14/2011
We’ve been hard at work on the next line of Meat Bun goods for some time and we’re almost ready to show them in the flesh. But first we want to offer a brief preview of the inspiration behind the line, “The Year 20XX,” which will be arriving at the online store soon.
After going a little medieval with Wizards ‘n’ Warriors last year, we decided to look to the future. For that is where you and I will spend the rest of our lives… So what futuristic games do we love? And which sci-fi classics inspire us?

One of my personal favorites is Capcom’s Forgotten Worlds, released in arcades in 1988. This side-scrolling shoot ‘em up felt like nothing else at the time, sporting a unique control scheme featuring a big rotating button and two memorable, but unnamed protagonists: P1 and P2. We’ve talked about doing something with the game’s War God since the inception of Meat Bun, but we finally found the right artist for the job.

Another great character, Space Channel 5′s Ulala. Maybe unwavering love for the Dreamcast made us fall in love with the future’s hippest space reporter, but United Game Artists gorgeous design for Ulala was probably the thing that won us over. We really dig the swinging ’60s characteristics of Ulala and have always wanted to do something Space Channel inspired.

F-Zero was one of the first Super Nintendo games I ever owned, one that I spent hours upon hours with, whittling down my lap times on Death Wind. I’ve always been a fan of non-traditional racing games, whether they’re the futuristic hover cars of WipEout and F-Zero or the speedboats of Hydro Thunder. And Meat Bun loves classic racing imagery. So maybe you can see where this is going…

One last-minute addition to the line is Star Fox inspired. Or maybe it’s Super FX Chip-inspired. Old-school polygonal graphics, the kind of stuff seen in games like S.T.U.N. Runner, Steel Talons and Star Fox, brings back great memories, just like pixelated 8-bit sprites do.
Of course, we have more planned for The Year 20XX than just stuff inspired by the above. Keep an eye peeled for more news soon.
