Better yet, this one is fully in Russian! That makes it a bootleg of a bootleg of a bootleg of a bootleg. It's like something from fucking Borat. I imported it from Ukraine either this year or last, I forget.
The other cartridge is a preproduction version of Whac-A-Critter, which is unlicensed. It's not an EEPROM, and I'm pretty sure it's identical to the retail version, but I bought it direct from Innovation, the guys who imported it from Taiwan.

The three breasted woman was fake. If check the link, there is a video which you can see her breasts skin colors is completely different from the rest of his body.
Dunno about the teen sex slave, may be a hoax too.
Edit: Cosplay

Did you buy this from Ebay?
Funny thing, there's a guy on Ebay, who sells "rare" russian bootleg games for ridiculous prices. In Russian stores, these games cost about 4$ (including Sonic Jam 6), but he sells them for 22.

But those are relatively rare when you consider the total production runs.
Five to ten years from now, you won't be able to find those.

These bootlegs are everywhere in russian electronic/kids stores. Pretty sure you better buy an original Tec Toy copy instead of this guy's overpriced pirated copy. It's not rare, we have tons of these in Russia, and it's very poor quality.

“Although A.D.H.D is the diagnosis Dr. Anderson makes, he calls the disorder “made up” and “an excuse” to prescribe the pills to treat what he considers the children’s true ill — poor academic performance in inadequate schools.
“I don’t have a whole lot of choice,” said Dr. Anderson, a pediatrician for many poor families in Cherokee County, north of Atlanta.”
http://www.nytimes.c...-in-school.html
"Behind that growth has been drug company marketing that has stretched the image of classic A.D.H.D. to include relatively normal behavior like carelessness and impatience, and has often overstated the pills’ benefits. Advertising on television and in popular magazines like People and Good Housekeeping has cast common childhood forgetfulness and poor grades as grounds for medication that, among other benefits, can result in “schoolwork that matches his intelligence” and ease family tension."

"A second world-renowned scientist has come forward to support claims that ADHD is not a real disease, but a description of symptoms.
Dr Bruce Perry said most people displayed signs of the condition at some point in their lives."

Even the "father" of ADHD, Leon Eisenberg, said that "ADHD is a prime example of a fabricated disorder" before his death, as the term was meant only for "brain-damaged child". By the way, it reminds you of autirm, don't?

Actually, that's an out of context quote. He was complaining about how his discovery was used for lazy parenting. Also, my life was a mess for seven years until I started taking Dexedrine again. I definitely have it, it's pretty hard to describe but it's like trying to view thoughts through a thick cloud of smoke. Also there's this weird subconscious background "noise," it's not racing thoughts like when I'm manic, it's totally different.
Quote
A tall, thin man with glasses and suspenders opened the door to his apartment in Harvard Square in 2009, invited me to the kitchen table, and poured coffee. He said that he never would have thought his discovery would someday become so popular. "ADHD is a prime example of a fabricated disorder," Eisenberg said. "The genetic predisposition to ADHD is completely overrated."
Instead, child psychiatrists should more thoroughly determine the psychosocial reasons that can lead to behavioral problems, Eisenberg said. Are there fights with parents, are there are problems in the family? Such questions are important, but they take a lot of time, Eisenberg said, adding with a sigh: "Prescribe a pill for it very quickly."

No, he was specifically referring to the over-diagnosis. That was also made clear by the link of Snopes you posted.

Might go back and tweak a few things here and there, but overall it turned out OK. I really need better recording gear.

I have bought this S3 Trio as ET4000 cards are almost impossible to find.
It had better be a good substitute and it had better work in Windows Chicago, furthermore if I find a performance hit because of the EDO RAM I will be very unhappy - note, I will install an additional 1MB. Bah, I guess you can only dominate benchmarks for so long before it catches up with you.
The Pentium OverDrive I bought a while back (For the machine who's VGA just died) works fine however. I'll just have to limp through on my flaky ISA TSeng card until the Trio gets here... I think I have a Trident 8900 with 512K of RAM somewhere that's more reliable (And I know for a fact I have an even worse RealTek card) but I'd rather watch paint dry than install that.
