I've played Parappa the Rapper the death. Hell, I even suffered through a good hour of the sub-par PlayStation 2 sequel, but Lammy? I just didn't "get it".

But Um Jammer Lammy enthusiasts with an extra 300-ish smackers in their smoking pockets can still get their strummin' hands on some very sweet licensed guitars. They may not sound all that great—built-in speakers, y'know—but the gaming nerd cred is off the charts here.

GameSetWatch's gentlemanly editor Simon C. helps clue in us Westerners with the details on how to snag these Japan-only guitars courtesy of collector Dan Amrich. Check out the handy write up and get spending, consuming public!

<![CDATA[ Um Jammer Lammy - What The Hell? ]]>



Any game with a cut scene this surreal has to be worth playing. Um Jammer Lammy eats too much pizza, so she thinks she's pregnant. In a hallucinogenic reverie, she runs down the street, only to collapse in front of a store selling birth control. A marching band of two-dimensional, anthropomorphic animals comes down the street to sing a musical number about the trials of single parenting, even as a horrific caterpillar in a nurse's uniform vomits candy-colored morning-after pills all over her. Then she has a baby and it turns into a guitar.

Absolutely nightmarish.
