After a claim that Smash Bros.'s special moves could be taught in one sentence, I further put it in haiku form.
<pre>Special moves with B;
combine with stick directions
or use it alone.</pre>

[[Perfect Strangers]] theme song, twisted.
Babelfish to Japanese and back, it is called Complete Others.
<pre>All is well in life
Sometimes the world looks perfect
Naught to rearrange
All's not well in life
Sometimes you get a feeling
Like change is needed
I will move forward
Probability be damned
Things won't block my path
This flame in my heart
Brings light to a dark street's end
And a long lost friend
Standing above all
Upon the wings of my dream
Rising and falling
Bear rain and thunder
I am bound for better days
Wind and haze will pass
Yes, this is my life
Nothing's gonna stop me now
And this is my dream</pre>

[[Animal Crossing Pioneer]]. &nbsp;These are the haiku [[Alex Fraioli|Al]] and I used to win early copies of [[Animal Crossing]] back in 2002.
<pre>Haiku
<nowiki><nowiki>-----</nowiki></nowiki>
Josh:
Twenty-four seven
Thee six five (or six) per year
Animal Crossing
If can't Pioneer,
Mario would stay in Cube;
Legs would atrophy!
<nowiki><nowiki>-----</nowiki></nowiki>
Alex:
Night and Day system
It sounds promising to me
Acting as if real
And when connected
To my small Game Boy Advance
Possibilities!</pre>
An old text file dated [[April 3]], [[2002]]. &nbsp;Note the single 5-syllable line in the middle that didn't grow into a full haiku, but I leave here for historical accuracy:
<pre>It's a theory.
Derive, backwards, integrate
It's fundamental.
Can't imagine it
Square root of negative one
But it seems to work
Side over sine same?
Two pi radius
Pi, radius: a great team.
Pi radius squared
Four times pi r squared
Pi, radius: In 3D!
Four thirds pi r cubed</pre>

<pre>First haiku to my GameCube controller, Thursday, October 4, 2001:
Over here, baby
You've such beautiful shoulders
Let me feel you up</pre>
I found these in an old notebook. &nbsp;They look to be something I did while passing the time around [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] launch.
<pre>It's Monday the twelfth
I can't wait for my GameCube
Hurry up, Sunday
The chair has been moved
The speakers are optimised
Now to afford it
Blow up the Death Star
Rogue Squadron, where's our cover!?
Factor 5, you rock.
Where is Mario?
Classic wuss meets vacuum tale
Luigi's Mansion
Two hundred dollars
Four controller ports standard
Ate into my brain
Flipper by ArtX
Gekko made by IBM
Controller from Shin
I'm so damn obsessed
But that's just the way I am
So I write haiku
Nintendo, my world
Now how to turn this knowledge
Into cold hard cash
Ant-plant-like creatures
Controlled by tiny spaceman?
Now THAT is the job
There's more of it all
Even Ice Climbers are here
Super Smash Brothers!
Hugeass controller
Coupled with a hugeass price
Poor MS Xbox</pre>
Same old notebook, and considering the subject matter, similar time frame
<pre>I crash into things
Hijack hijack hijack hi
Kiss your buildings bye</pre>
Saved in old text file
<pre>8/22/2001, early morn
MST3K
Arisen like Lazarus
Then bitch-slapped back down
8/23/2001, early morn. &nbsp;Space World pre-show. &nbsp;This is a haiku about the reaction of many people. &nbsp;Rated M.
Crowded IRC
Praying for new media
THAT'S Zelda!?! The fuck!</pre>
