I am planning on eating a 3DS cartridge of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D.
I think it will be a fitting tribute to a game series I love so much, to have it always be "inside" of me. Even though the cartridge will pass through my body in a day or two, since our bodies extract nutrients from food there would be some type of infusion taking place, and I am sure I will absorb some of the game's code and have it deposited and absorbed into my body.
I originally wanted to do it with the gold cartridge of the N64 original, but I realized I would have to break the cartridge into pieces to be able to ingest it, and that will probably reduce the chances of whole code being assimilated into my body.
I checked into the science of it and digesting small quantities of plastic would cause negligible damage at best, and I think any "minor stomachache" that may result will be far outweighed by the satisfaction of knowing that part of my favorite game is always within my spirit.
But I want to run it by you all, it can't be too unhealthy, right?
