I Hunger... For This Fabulous Sinistar Cake!
Posted by Michael McWhertor at 11:20 AM on January 23, 2008
Seems we're back on the cake. This one, a remarkable achievement unearthed (read: re-blogged) by the eagle-eyed gang at Arcade Heroes, was created for a Killer List of Video Games message board poster and presumed Sinistar fan by a co-worker. We can only assume that by "co-worker", the poster means "best friend in the universe" and "the only one who understands my true passion." It's really quite glorious in it's full-sized form, but remember that there are only about three Sinistar jokes one can make and I've already made one of them. Comment carefully!

Impressive. This is one of those ideas that make you wonder why it hasn't already been done yet. It just works so well.

Alas, my favorite cake as far as gaming cakes are concerned is still the Wind Waker cake. Others have challenged it, including this one for all of the great Sinistar memories it dredged up. But when I look at the artsmanship of the Wind Waker cake it takes the #1 spot.
Of course, that one was done by a professional... maybe I should have a "Favorite by a normal person" cake too...

@jollydwarf:
Man, that describes the days when I was focused on mastering the game. I play it today and I don't even manage to kill the bastard once.

The best cake ever. Sinistar sounds were amazing, all I can think of is him screaming at me.

Panic: the state one finds himself in while being chased by a Sinistar with one more piece than Sinibombs available in the player's reserve.

So, what's the flavor of the cake? Is it... Sini-mon?

I will bet anything that all cake stories from now on will include a "the cake is a lie" joke in the comments. So far this one has racked up two, and still counting.

I am obliged to comment on this, the coolest. Cake. Ever.
Does this mean my chic, retro icon just went mainstream?

Nice! Sinistar was one of my arcade guilty pleasures along with Devil's Hollow.
Almost a waste of a quarter due to the extreme difficulty, but I always had to play at least one game.

If only I had tiny bombs to blow off parts of it everything would be complete!

@ampillion : Will comment for money.: There is enough frosting there to do some damage on impact. Both problems solved.

@ManekiNeko: I'd throw produce, but I have none. And even if I bought some now, it wouldn't be properly rotten enough to throw just yet.
As much as I love all these cake posts, something about seeing masses of frosting used like layers of paint just somehow pushes me that much closer to having diabetes.

Hmm, I don't think this one is cool or cute. It ain't doing it for me... which could be a good thing, I would not hesitate to eat it :)

@akaBitter: The trick is to get over your fear of Sinistar. Harvest the hell out of the asteroids, grabbing as many crystals as you can, then wait for Sinistar to come to life (believe me, you'll know when it happens!). Watch the radar, and retreat when he approaches. Keep flying in a straight direction, without stopping or turning, then frantically hammer the bomb button to drop your payload directly into Sinistar's mouth. He'll die in a matter of seconds.
A good Sinistar player doesn't worry about the big guy himself... once you get the pattern down, he's cake. It's those damn tank droids that will cost you the most lives in the later stages... they dance around your ship, firing bullets that are infuriatingly hard to dodge.

Oh god... I'm so embarrassed! The photo of me used to make that cake is way outdated. I've been tanning a lot since then, had my teeth filed. And thanks to the medication, I don't indiscriminately yell at people anymore.
