This last paragraph needs some serious re-working/editing... Who is talking? Is it Sega, because it doesn't read like Kevin Smith, who is mentioned before the quote.
Why did the filmmakers go through all of this trouble? Well, according to Smith, Sega promised that if the game had some exposure in the movie, it would ensure that Smith and his cast would be featured in the company's nationwide promotional tours. "In the end, they pimped out on us, they did not feature us, and we had changed it all for nothing."
As someone who rode a bike all the time when I was a kid and also sheltered from the whole drug scene, even now I only see accidents and rough play with those photos. Nothing looks dug related to me.
I'm a year younger than you and I loved the prequels. I also hated them. But I love them.
Also, I grew up with the original three movies, and saw Return of the Jedi in a drive in. I was not quite three years old yet. It's one of my earliest memories.
It apparently isn't that well known if you get the information wrong!
"When it became clear to Nintendo that Sony expected to gain cash from each game sold as part of the deal, it unceremoniously dumped the Japanese tech giant at the alter, signing an agreement with Philips instead."
Stop putting Nintendo as being in the wrong in this!
Sony wanted I.P. control! THAT is why Nintendo dropped them!
@SlangWon 12 years or three systems! That should be the mandate for games going public!
Movies/TV shows should be 5-7 years. There's a couple of dudes who bought the rights to some movies just to have the rights and not release them. Then there's a few who did but ask way too much for releasing them, so instead, now they get nothing...

@KitsuneNight I agree! Achievements in games like Smash Melee are fine. When they are done for like every game, through the console like the HD Twins (M$ / $ony) are when they are pointless and annoying.
None of these clothes, Double Dragon, Zelda, Mario, ever look like something from the game itself. I may not care for the game, but I'd like a Champion Link shirt!

Sony was wrong. Nintendo jumped, rightly.
Sony should have informed their speaker.

Re: Tetris Forever Is Missing An Interesting Entry, Claims Satellaview Preservationist
I have played Tetris since the Game Boy came out.
I also played it on the N.E.S.
I was great at it on the GB. I even got a rocket once, maybe twice!
On the NES, I was terrible!
I have two Tetris games on my =NEW= 2DS XL
One is the GB version and while I can get pretty high up in level and points, I have never gotten a rocket!
