So I get the sense the culture sense is roughly circa Pilotwings rn, which would be\u2026 1990

That looks remarkably well-rendered for a game from 1990, but what do you mean by this?

Like I mean the last time the zeitgeist smelled like this I was playing Pilotwings at my friends’ houses

smells like teen zeitgeist huh

it’s funny that Pilotwings predated MarioKart given that it’s using the exact same Mode 7 perspective scaling for the background, like you’d think that driving would come before flying but no; incredibly irritating game, really anticipated the Wii in that respect.

AU where Sonic was a Nintendo property and they use Mode 7 for the bonus rounds where you collect Chaos Emeralds
