I have watched this VHS tape many times back in the day. It's a "making of" donkey kong Country.

For a split second I thought the dude doing the show was one of the devs. He looks like some of the guys at LGS. Man I wish I got to work at a game studio int he 90s.

I actually have that vhs. I should put it on my 'battlestation' tier shelf thing from the 90s.

The cover is banana leaves right?

Kids will never know what it is like to get free shit in the mail from Nintendo. Though, this was just a bonus sent to me, because I had a Nintendo Power subscription. This isn't my photo. But I had a VHS taps that looked exactly like this. My friend, who also had a Nintendo Power Sub got this tape too, and we would make jokes about it in school. "Like, where's my Banana's?"

I already had a huge not-sure-why-but-my-dick-feels-good kid boner for DKC, but I was beyond hyped for that space age shit.

God, that PS5 showcase was dull as shit. FF16 somehow looks worse than 15, congrats numbskulls. I think all the true hardware pushing autists are long gone from the industry.

Yeah, I miss that. The giant leaps just aren't there anymore.
