Original Ruffles are a great chip to eat with dip.
Stax are better than Pringles. That's right. I said it.Posted May 11th, 2013 at 08:24 PM by old hat

Alas, they're dreadful. Eating them is akin to being repeatedly punched in the mouth by an angry man wearing boxing gloves made of hard, stale cheddar cheese substitute and coated with the sour cream equivalent of non-dairy creamer.Quote:Originally Posted by superplough
Cheddar and Sour Cream sounds pretty good!
Salt and vinegar kettle chips are the way to go. Potatoes fried on oil go with salt and vinegar. Everyone knows that.Posted May 11th, 2013 at 04:18 AM by old hat

Well, if you drink Starbucks...
...I wouldn't expect you to have a sophisticated enough palate to appreciate Cheddar & Sour Cream Ruffles. Your taste buds have likely been damaged by the proximity to green aprons.Posted May 11th, 2013 at 01:34 AM by Leader Desslock

Cheddar and Sour Cream smells like the inner (and more importantly, outer) workings of a bad night out drinking. Tastes almost but not quite as terrible as it smells. No thanks.
Haven't tried them Doritos, though. I haven't had Doritos in....three or four years. The Lays chips I had the other day (and the next day after that
) was the first time for them in like, seven. I dunno. I don't eat too much snacky food so I never know what I'm missing. The exception of course being Starbucks and Japanese snack goods of the internet-purchase variety.
But DAYUM were those chips good. Good enough to perhaps get another bag today. They have them in the break room. A dollar. It's worth it.Posted May 11th, 2013 at 01:29 AM by Shiroiyuki

I used to HATE salt and vinegar. I like it quite a lot now though.

I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you over the crunching of my clearly superior Ruffles Cheddar And Sour Cream chips.

It indicates that Sega exists.
I'm pretty sure we already knew that, but if you want to project your own fears/desires into those tea leaves, nobody can stop you.
I'm not going to get my hopes up about the downloadable plant video market just yet. I've had those dreams shattered too many times in the past to relive that pain.Posted May 6th, 2013 at 07:20 PM by Leader Desslock

What I'm saying is that this particular indicator doesn't mean a damned thing. They might well be doing something, but this particular Trademark filing doesn't tell you what that might be. It's a step on a path, but there are no signposts and you don't have a compass or map. The path might dead-end over the next hill, or it might lead round in a circle. There's no way to tell (from this filing) which it might be.
Unless they really are planning on taking over the home market for downloadable plant videos. 'Cause that's an untapped market, right there.Posted May 6th, 2013 at 12:48 PM by JoeHigarashi

Seriously, the Trademark is listed to be used with "downloadable video files featuring plants". Gosh, yes. 'Cause there's a market Sega's interested in cornering, yessir.
A step on a path indicates plans to eventually re-organize and become what the brand name describes.
From all indicators, SEGA is definitely indicating that they are moving completely away from software publishing. It sounds like Sega is carefully planning some clever way to venture into different markets through partnerships,joint ventures e.t.c ala AD Vision,Inc.Posted May 6th, 2013 at 10:32 AM by JoeHigarashi

aka coin op arcade games which has little do do with home consoles even if that's what
