Explaining the joke. by Vaughn Smith

I thought it would be funny to see the biggest, fattest game controllers sitting around playing poker. Just a visual gag really. During the course of the poker game, the conversation would inevitably turn to sex talk. These slobs of the gaming world wouldn't understand why the women loved Mr. 2600 so much. Of course, Mr. 2600 is the Atari VCS controller from the 70's and in the last panel, it's immediately obvious why the ladies like his company.

My favorite line is the Atari Jaguar's, when he says "I've got more buttons than Czechoslovakian lingerie." I don't even know what that means. I just imagined Czech lingerie to be the complete opposite of sexy and sultry, with all of these buttons and clasps, like your grandmother's overcoat. I apologize to the Czech republic for my ignorance. That being said, the Atari Jaguar really does have an insane amount of buttons on it. It looks like a cash register which is ironic since it had the exact opposite effect on Atari's revenue stream.
