The Tanooki’s Daily Recap - May 8, 2008

Published by Christian at 11:59 pm

Daily. Haha.

So I finished my spring semester of school yesterday and made the two hour drive home after getting soaked in a downpour while loading everything into my car. Alright, it didn’t downpour the whole time - just when I went out one last time to actually get into car. I finally get home and find everything just as I left it - including these old Sega Game Gear collectible cards that came with some bubble gum. I was reading one of the game tips on these cards to Matthew over spring break, just for fun. If you can’t read it above, you can read a close-up image here.

Can you imagine getting walkthroughs like that for today’s games? Or someone reading it to you as you play? “Wait, slow down, I lost you after ‘Begin the level…’”
