It’s 1987 and your best friend invites you over to his place to play video games, he says he got a new game and loves it and thinks you’ll like it too. Expecting Alex Kidd in Miracle World on the Sega Master System you excitedly agree! Then after school you two head over to his place to play, then he pulls out an NES and a game called Volleyball, you’re disappointed but hope for the best. You two start playing and you quickly discover how bad this game is, controlling the players is difficult and the feel of the game is awful with annoying sound effects. A sinking feeling sets in before you look around and realize your best friend is a huge Nintendo fan and thinks the NES is a good console! With good games??? Insanity!!! Finally your mom comes to pick you and release you from your torment. You leave and when you get in the car, your mom asks you how it was. You tell her that you no longer have a best friend.
