IIRC those anti-smoking campaigns were in fact paid for in part by the tobacco companies, which is why they were annoying and counter-productive.

They were 100% created by Big Tobacco as part of the lawsuit they lost.

Frankly, it's pretty drat smart of them to make commercials so bad that it makes people want to smoke just to spite them. And Big Tobacco can just go, "We technically did what we were supposed to do. :shrug:"

Come to PA where the state government is constantly telling you not to drive drunk, that alcohol will kill you, that you shouldn't drink, but also advertising their vodka specials because the government owns and operates the liquor stores.

No, it's "Fa-Xanadu," short for Famicom Xanadu. There was a game for PCs called Xanadu but this one was made for console.

gosh I know about Xanadu, part of the excessive Dragon Slayer series whose sub-serieses are still being produced today with the latest being the itself excessive Trails serieses, but I could swear I read that Faux-Xanadu interpretation somewhere that seemed credible.

Well, uh... the Pendant in the game actually LOWERS your attack power instead of raising it! The flags are switched so you start with the boost, and lose it when you pick the item up. I KNEW I wasn't crazy as a kid!

Faxanadu is one of the few NES games to get a post-launch "patch." The original release has a very difficult to read faux Gothic font and later copies of the game have a nice clean sans serif. I had the later version and I was very confused when a ROM I played later was so hard to read.

Reminds of one of the very few political comments Bill Cosby ever made durig a show. Possibly the only one.

It was at the end of "200MPH," his bit about Carroll Shelby shaming him into buying a Cobra instead of Ferraris, and how just starting the car literally scared the poo poo out of him. He hands the keys to the delivering mechanic ("Bob") and tells him to deliver the car to George Wallace.
