Weird Al Yankovic's Lost Nintendo Game Is Real and It's Gloriously Insane — GeekTyrant
Turns out Weird Al Yankovic actually helped develop his own Nintendo game. A newly uncovered, unreleased NES title features the polka legend in full 8-bit chaos, taking fans on a playable tour of his off-the-wall career. In this rare gem, you don't just record hits, you do it in a public restroom. You'll launch tuna casserole at street thugs, battle goons with spatulas, and dodge raining poodles like it's a normal Tuesday. In this video from Doogtoons, Weird Al' Yankovic himself as he guides you through the bonkers 8-bit adventure. Oh, and yeah, and of course, Conan the Librarian makes a deadly cameo, return those books on time or suffer the overdue consequences. It's Weird Al at his weirdest, digitized and cranked to eleven.

Every jab, block, and training montage is synced with the beeps, dings, and goofy audio quirks of the game is a ton of fun! Enjoy!
