Anything is possible in this crazy world, so who's to say there won't be a time when video games become reality and we, mere pixelated personalities, are forced to defend ourselves? The 'In Case of 8-Bit Emergency' kit is designed for this degree of conceivable disaster, and ready to be used by the nearest NES expert.
Where one might expect to see a fire extinguisher, a hose or an emergency axe within a wall-mounted box labeled "Break Glass," he is instead presented with the all-powerful virtual rifle, known best for its adeptness in Nintendo Duck Hunt.
