In honesty, I think Star Control is tuned into Nintendo's Audience. XBox tends to have the "Xtreme" audience thing going for it and Sony have the "Super Gritty Brown" stuff (both sterotypes). Nintendo tend to produce games with a Deep Plot, but add some surreal humour to it and such (Whoever says Mario isn't a parody is LYIIIIING).

But yes, hopefully, IF they port the Genesis version, they'll add Blast Processing Smiley. Hopefully.

It's a parody of the "one man army thing" that was going on in the cinemas, originaly he was a Carpenter, but he basically parodies the idea that there has to be a really cool guy to be the hero, with sword/beams/etc.
