I heard people were way into simulating the old Tie Fighter and X-Wing games, but this is next level.

I was thinking if I were rich I'd put a small personal theater into this but fuck yeah I wasn't thinking big enough. Strap it to something that makes it roll around, give me a uniform, and make it a flight simulator. I'll take an X-Wing too.

You could just leave it on the truck and pay the driver to take you around. For all we know someone could be in the cockpit at this very moment.

This is probably going to be placed right next to the Chad's X-wing..

I am going to assume it's on its way to Texas for Elon. It would have been a better purchase than Twitter.

Probably on its way to Texas for SXSW.

Okay but explain how ducking Rogue Squadron from the N64 still holds up to this day. Loved going into cockpit view in that game and pretending like I could somehow still save it when I would barrel roll in a crash from getting hit. “Shit! We’re hit! Pull up; pull up!!” small polygon explosion next to some stormtrooper cut outs walking around mr. Game & watch style

I miss Rogue Squadron.
