Pepsiman!!!!
Does anyone remember the iconic tomfoolery of the mid to late '90s? What, with a 3D Sonic the Hedgehog, Crash Bandicoot's overly-pixelated sh!t-eating grin and of course, the title of my thread, good ol' Pepsiman. I was playing my friend's Sega Saturn and a Japanese copy of Fighting Vipers got busted out of the storage bag. It just so happens that I suck at Fighting Vipers, or maybe Fighting Vipers sucks at me, but I let Picky beat me in Arcade mode in Normal difficulty with a perfect. All of a sudden, a "new challenger" joined and it was Pepsiman!!! I barely beat him(he's definitely a button-masher), but I unlocked him after that. I then played as him, only to realize that he's just got Picky's moves dumped on a corporate aesthetic.
Sigh. The woes of second-gen gaming are so painful, yet nostalgic...
