The evil Captain Cork has sabotaged the world’s soda machines, and only you—an anthropomorphic bottle of pop—can save the day in Frenzy Pop!

Finding Paradise is a game about two doctors exploring a dying man’s memories. I’m pretty sure my psyche would just be wall-to-wall soda machines.

Don’t overload on caffeine in Emily Wants to Play Too. The evil doll jump scare shenanigans are going to make you jittery enough already. Thanks for the heads-up on this one, Luke!

Bakushō: Yoshimoto no Shinkigeki is a platformer for the TurboGrafx CD. It’s apparently based on a comedy TV show and features—you guessed it—soda machines!

This train station from point-and-click adventure I Want Out! has seen better days, but at least the soda machine has held up.

Thanks, Cornelius!

Go in search of your missing sweetheart—and maybe grab a soda—in Love Quest, a “humorous” RPG for the Super Famicon. I used quotation marks there largely due to Wikipedia’s description of Love Quest as a game about “a young man with an Oedipus complex who searches for his bride.”

This ornate Coca-Cola machine is a bit of a mystery. The sprite was ripped from Dungeon Fighter Online, but it’s unclear whether it’s an unused asset, a region-specific object, or part of a forgotten limited-time event. Can anyone shed some light on its origins?
UPDATE: Reddit user m0mentum_ confirms this soda machine originally appeared during a 2009 event in the Korean version of the game. Thanks for solving the mystery!
