Glowing and 8-Bit Chomby

Glowing is basic Glowing, nothing much to say really.
But another new colour? 8-Bit looks so strange. I'm not sure why it has to have clothes on though. It's interesting enough, I'm going to wait untill more pets are realsed in this colour before I make my mind up about it.

It's too early for April Fools, isn't it?
Wow! After the 8-bit Chomby I can say TNT is awesome again.

I took one look at that 8-bit chomby and started humming the underground music from level 2 of the original Super Mario Bros. It was a completely involuntary reaction. Wow.

I love the 8-bit color. I still have a working NES and play my Mario games on it.

I have a FFQ. Hopefully, a future 8-bit pet will be really cool and something I can't pass up.

Uh....freaky. 8-bit does nothing for me really. I'm kind of freaked out by it. Uh....yeah. .-.
I'd rather see the SNES style, which was 16-bit. It had more depth and would make a bigger impact on me than this 8-bit.

I hate to be such a downer, but hopefully it's an April Fool's joke real early... x.x;

Well, I did think April Fools immediately when I saw it. But I have nothing at all against the color existing, and lab ray only at that; like sponge it has very little impact on me. But for those who enjoy that retro look, it's fun and creative! I never had an 8-bit gaming system, and at 25 years old I already feel like I'm well above their target age range. I was about six or seven when we got a Sega Genesis, which was 16-bit I guess? I got a Genesis Master disc for my PS3 and have been happily playing Sonic, Echo, etc. (although not Aladdin, sob) and the graphics are not that primitive. So it doesn't do much for me for nostalgia factor. But for those that do appreciate this and remember 8-bit gaming then this color will be right up their alley. At least they are attempting to do something creative (and that might appeal to their more adult users, who they are constantly accused of neglecting).

Well, dip me in oil and call me Clem.
8-Bit reminds me so much of Yoshi. Please, PLEASE, don't be April Fool's.

True Ailiel! I dunno, it just kinda scares me. I think I'd like to see it without clothes.
And it makes me wonder if customizing would even work with this new colour without looking overdone.

They should seriously do a Mario reference background item for this new colour.

I'm 25 as well, so it's not too young to have enjoyed 8-bit. :)

I still have a working SNES as well. A Link To The Past is one of my fave games ever. It is 16 bit. 32 bit was that Virtual Boy thing.
