Gum’s Spraypaint
Jet Set Radio anyone? I thought so.

Yoshi’s Egg
If you’ve played Yoshi’s Island, I don’t have to explain why this item is on this list. If you haven’t just imagine a regular egg… FILLED WITH C4!!!
Now imagine you’re using that egg to kill little red kidnappers in “Scream” masks.
I think we’re all on the same page now.

Vega’s Claws
Vega was never exactly my favorite character on Street Fighter (I tended to use Dhalsim, Blanka, Dan), but I do think he’s one of the most memorable characters in the franchise, and I always thought he had one of the best “looks” and weapons. Narcissistic, cocky, agile, and most importantly, a real weirdo.

Meat
I would be remiss if I failed to mention one of my favorite childhood games, Bonk’s Adventure. Whenever the little troglodyte would eat a big hunk of meat, it would temporarily transform him into a nigh-invincible bonk machine. And he looked funny.

POW Block
I had the original Mario Bros. Game for my Computer with like… Windows 95. It was on a floppy disc, and it was awesome. The best part? Two player action with one person using ASWD keys instead of the arrows. Anyway, everyone knows about the epic power of the POW block. When you absolutely positively have to flip everything onto it’s back, there’s no other choice.

Tri-Rocket Launcher
This is from, without a doubt, one of my all-time favorite games I’ve ever played, and probably ever will play. My parents were never fond of shooting games, but for some reason blowing bug brains all over cavern walls didn’t phase them, so Jet Force Gemini quickly became the go-to shooter for me and my brother. All of the weapons are cool, but the sweet sound of a Tri-Rocket disassembling a crowd of Drones?… Ah, the memories.

Pester Ball
This has to be one of the most magical items ever. What can compare to the thrill of finally being able to snap a picture of a Dragonite, or getting all those special Pikachu pictures? Or maybe you just like making Pokemon angry… you sicko.

Twin Swords
If you’ve never played any of the “Tales” games, stop whatever you’re doing right now, and go out and buy one. The game uses a battle system that’s like a cross between Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts, and it is awesome. Who wouldn’t want to learn a move called “Demon Fang”?

Dragon Hat
Ok, bonus points if you remember this one. I don’t think I’ve played Super Mario Land 3 since I was a kid, but I remember long car rides at night with my Game Boy, and that giant light/magnifying glass thing that clipped on to the top, playing Mario Land 2 & 3. Good times being bad guys.
Edit: Not sure if this is actually called the Dragon Hat…. that’s just what I always called it. Deal with it.

Mega Blaster
This thing had to make it in here eventually. The Mega Man series is one of my all-time favorite game franchises, and one of there few where I’ve actually played every game in the series (even Mega Man Legends/64…. bleh). Definitely on my list of “Weapons I’d own in real life, if they actually existed.”
