I prefer it when they have no idea what video games are.

I don't know why everyone's so ass ravaged over the aspect ratio. It's not even distorted. It's clearly meant to be the VC release reformatted to use 16:9, especially if you read the fine print at the bottom. Her using the wrong controller is the real flaw here, not to mention she's "playing" the demo part.

This is me exactly except my wife is only 22 so she's like "Yeah I think my parents played that before I was born". She does pretty okay at Sonic and Spyro though.

Also, are Froot Loops "retro" now? That wasn't a throwback box so I think they're having trouble syncing their marketing strategies.
