In this 1995 video from Friends, Chandler describes his new laptop: - 12 MB of RAM - 500MB hard drive - 28.8K modem This was a power users laptop - the average user at the time had 4MB of RAM, a 200MB hard drive, and a 14.4KB modem. His laptop had more power than an average home computer of the era, and for what reason? Games. Nothing changes. 😆

The PlayStation 2 was the all-time best selling video game console ever created, selling over 160M units. It was released in August 2000, making it about 26 years old. Many people bought them because they were cheaper than a DVD player and could also play games.

Nintendo introduced the "Official Nintendo Seal of Quality" in the mid-1980s to rebuild trust after the 1983 Video Game Crash. The crash was caused by a flood of low-quality, poorly made third-party games, such as E.T. for Atari, destroying consumer confidence in video games. The Nintendo quality seal reassured customers that games were officially licensed through Nintendo, assuring 'quality' games. This also controlled the market of games, limiting how many third party companies could create or release games for the system - which led some to say it was anticompetitive.

The NES game Top Gun came out in 1987. Despite what the commercial said, landing on the aircraft carrier was nearly an impossible task. Millions of kids had to ditch their F-14 into the ocean and admit they didn't have what it took. 😖

People are against updating the graphics in World of Warcraft - but that kind of already happened. Are the new character models better than the old or would you rather stick with the old ones?
