Doom Effect

The "Doom Effect" occurs when a new electronic device, usually targeting consumers, is released and someone ports the id Software classic game DOOM to it. The only stated goal of doing so is to claim that DOOM can run on it. It is not done with the full intent that people will actually play the game on said device, just that it is technically possible.

The Doom Effect usually acts a marker for then next level of experimentation with said device.

is the practice of porting id Software's genre defining DOOM game to any new electronic device with a screen just to prove it it technically feasible.

"The Doom Effect was in full force with this port of DOOM to all Digita OS cameras."

doomity-doom

Originally coined by Invader Zim's malfunctioning SIR Unit, GIR, in the now classic "Doom Song", it has been adopted by humans aware of our own impending destruction. Whether our destruction comes by the Mighty Irken Invaders, our pissed off planet or by our own myopic stupidity, only time will tell.

It is the mental equivalent of Wile E. Coyote's umbrella

Meteor, Volcano, disease, pollution, all too much? Just say 'doomity-doom!' and embrace the DOOM!
