future merchandise ideas

Have anything to suggest? A crazy video idea? New merchandise in mind? Write it down here - I'm not saying I'm going to listen, but I promise to pretend very hard.

This may be going a bit far, but I'm sure it's somehow possible to put asmt on an snes cartridge. There's people out there who can put rom files on cartridges, as long as everything is in a good format. I'm not the one to look for, and it's just an idea for the distant future. Were going to need a slick label too. Also, I'd suggest making it both in snes and sfc format. And people are going to be all like: "but the rom's free, why would anyone buy that!". But to me it's 100% worth it to find a way to play something on the original hardware.

Sadly, I'm pretty sure that it is illegal to make such things.

Even if the existing designs were just put onto other products, I'm sure we'd be happy.

You know the animations that Roo does of raocow? What about using the black and white raocow sketch as an idea for a shirt with raocow on the front and a "Hey there, everyone!" or something on the back? That might be a bit too much, but it's an idea I wanted to toss out there.

http://nesreproductions.com/ has been up for years now and nobody seems to mind.

We really need a t-shirt with a nice drawing of demo the character though, that is a must.

I don't know if anyone has said this yet but an "It's Pretty Great" shirt would be cool. Could include whatever picture you wanted, like maybe a picture of demo or something. Just a thought.

how about a window cling or bumper sticker of Science (the character)? I have a "got science?" bumper sticker that would be perfect next to it

I doubt raocow's got the time for something like that, but I'd really want to read a book or short story written by him, even buy it.
But I guess drawing is more likely his thing other than writing thoughtful stories...?

I guess it was more written by AoD, but he drew the pictures, so it's the next best thing, I suppose.

Yeah, I know about ATXS, but I meant something like a full-on book with a lot of letters and stuff like that, you know the things that are like 1500 pages long. I really appreciate rao's artstyle and drawings, but it isn't really what I usually look for when reading a book if that somehow makes sense.

We need a shirt that simply has the raocow symbol on the front (the one on the website home page) and "it's...it's a thing..." on the back with accompanying URLs of raocow.com, talkhaus.raocow.com, and youtube.com/user/raocow.

Rao is prime audiobook material. He has a fantastic voice, and I mean that in the most platonic way possible.

also he should make a karaoke video just for shits and giggles

I would actually probably buy that if it existed. I don't really care if there are the URLs or not but I would definitely buy a shirt with like

raocow
it's... it's a thing

on it.

Also I will probably buy the stupid horse shirt soon.
and maybe atxs too but just maybe

I'm not sure if this is the idea I had on vacation but I would totally wear a shirt with a raoized "WARNING... video games" from the Crazy'd series haha. On the back would be a picture of raocow... rooized.

The raocow, Demo, Iris, Catnip, Sheath, Kood, catplanetcat, Boon plushy series hahahahahaha
