As a childless man, I have not had the pleasure of experiencing a video game truck — a giant mobile game trailer packed full of gaming consoles usually reserved for children’s birthdays. Conan O’Brien on the other hand has, and points out how weird the concept is.
Check out the full bit in the video above from last night’s Conan. For reference, this is what one of those things looks like on the inside:

whelp… that was boring… and newsworthy.
Pfft… @fatshadylive and Trials University had this on video long before Conan! It’s how Trials Evolution has been demonstrated to people at PAX at other conventions.
Nintendo also had those frequently at shopping centers during holidays, when the N64 was the new thing. (Although the consoles were on the outside of the truck under flaps)
In a Strip Truck??? I didn’t see that part in the trials university!
True. Take that Conan!. Check out my buddy at @UltimateGamesAU if you want one at your place. #shamelessplug
Jay Leno pwns Conan O’Brien
ah… Jay screwed Conan over pretty hard, proving he is a dick. Conan is about twenty years younger, not a dick, and a former Simpsons writer.
Basically Conan got fucked over by Leno, then refused to fuck over Jimmy Falon and mess up the time slots that had been in place for over twenty years.
“if I accept this move I will be knocking the Late Night show, which I inherited from David Letterman and passed on to Jimmy Fallon, out of its long-held time slot. That would hurt the other NBC franchise that I love, and it would be unfair to Jimmy”

Conan essentially booted Jay out of his job while Leno was still top for ratings in that time slot.
I liked Conan but he played the victim card too much. Its show business and the fact is his ratings sucked
The video game isn’t like a big truck…
I can’t watch the video atm…but this is the first time I’ve heard about a video game truck…and if I was a kid I would find this glorious/still would.
