Now I feel old.
I love that phrase.
I don't know how that got so big, NERD ALERTS!
Isn't it a lot older than that, it became popular probably 10 years or more ago.
1998 was the earliest according to the fountain of all meme knowledge:

Sounds about right I kind of recall it being around when I first started playing online games which was about 96/97.
Actual game it was from would be early 90s?
What on earth are you all talking about..?
Well there's a link on the OP post to explain it all.
So it's all about some poorly translated Japanese?
Can't open it on my phone.
[b]Origin[/b]
The phrase and game footage used in the meme come from the 1989 side-scrolling arcade shooter Zero Wing. The quote is from the introduction sequence of the game in which the player’s enemy, the leader of CATS, appears. The following conversation happens:
Captain: What happen ?
Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb.
Operator: We get signal.
Captain: What !
Operator: Main screen turn on.
Captain: It’s you !!
CATS: How are you gentlemen !!
[b]CATS: All your base are belong to us.[/b]
CATS: You are on the way to destruction.
Captain: What you say !!
CATS: You have no chance to survive make your time.
CATS: Ha ha ha ha …
Operator: Captain !!
Captain: Take off every ‘ZIG’!!
Captain: You know what you doing.
Captain: Move ‘ZIG’.
Captain: For great justice.
