(pops in game genie) I just remembered GameFAQS existed And before then $9.99 books that told me how to get through StarTropics The only books I bought as a kid were used to help me play video games. Something's hosed up about that.

were they the ones that sent out the monthly catalog? spacemang suggests as much. i used to get free pizza hut personal pizzas like every month because i'd order books from them and read them and submit a list of what i read or something like that i can't rmemeber but poo poo i woulda read those books without the incentive so basically free free pizaa. (minus cost of books, thanks mom and dad.)

(minus cost of books, thanks mom and dad.) maybe it wasn't monthly but it was pretty close. maybe once per 9 weeks. but yeah they had the little catalogs they would send out to classrooms. then they'd do the book fair in the library  I got a lot of Goosebumps books from them

it also helps that video game music is cool and good, and clearly evokes a scene because it's like, 'this is the song that was playing during the ganondorf battle, it makes me think of the ganondorf battle', when other classical music needs a bit more to digest and discuss and ain't nobody got time for that poo poo imo this is probably the way to go for orchestras, especially if they branch out to other games that never got much orchestral treatments

i asked my big gamer friend to explain undertale to me and why it was good and he just kind of stammered some incoherent stuff out about how you play it a bunch of times and the characters react to your choices and then was like "you really just have to play it" and then i didn't because it sounded like one of those dumb interactive stories games that isn't actually a game like if i want to read a book i'll just read a book i don't need to turn the page by pressing a key

i hate most RPGs and never did anything to sway my opinion of Undertale before i played it i think it's a great game with fantastic writing, very memorable characterws, and unique gameplay mechanics the story is tepid and the random encounters do get very samey, but w/e, i still enjoyed it

this is a weird derail but let's be real here, undertale is going to be seen as the messiah of writing to a heck of a lot of millennials and that's going to influence how they think as they, for better or worse, become important
