@achewood I am composing a tone poem about eagles, lawnmowers, and Ted Nugent. It is composed only of the sounds of those things.

I can verify through independent analysis that Ben has in fact not invented something stranger than reality.
History verifying his story.

None of it. UFO Kamen Yakisoban! was a Super Famicom (Japanese version of the Super NES) game released by the Nissin corporation in 1994 as a tie-in for their UFO Yakisoba brand instant noodles. (Nissin is best known in the US as the makers of Top Ramen.) At the time, the spokesman character for UFO Yakisoba was a superhero named UFO Kamen Yakisoban, who was briefly very popular in Japan much the same way the California Raisins were in the US. By collecting labels from UFO Yakisoba and sending them in with money, one could earn a copy of UFO Kamen Yakisoban!.

The game itself is a side-scrolling brawling game in which one plays as UFO Kamen Yakisoban and battles various colorful enemies while collecting bowls of yakisoba to power up, with the bosses being people dressed as various sorts of other fast food. From the times I played it, I vaguely remember one of the bosses being a gyro or something very similar. It's a decent game but not fantastic; the main things it has going for it are (1) its strange premise and (2) the fact that, as a limited-time promotional offer reward, actual cartridges are rare and therefore quite expensive. These two factors make it popular among gamers emulating video game systems on their computers with illegally-downloaded ROM images of the game cartridges, but as I said it doesn't seem like LN's kind of game.

Talk nerdy to me, baby.

Was it ever a secret?
