A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

For me it's Chrono Trigger. I always want to play it. I want to show it to my children. I hope it will be regarded as a masterpiece for generations to come.

They made a film about Tetris, that's bizarre.

Yes, yes they did. It's actually a pretty fun watch.

It deals with the licensing fiasco that occurred when the game released.

Many companies saw the potential in the game's popularity and so an all out bidding war/competition for rights occurred between Soviet Government, Bulletproof, Holobyte, Mirrorsoft and most notably Nintendo.

It's probably an interesting story, it's just funny what they bother making films about sometimes. Like that McDonald's film.
