Yeah, I think the NES/Famicom is what really broke the mold. If they didn't improve over the years it no doubt would have fizzled. But with that amount of passion and enjoyment it brought I can't possibly imagine them not improving.
They lied, it was probably reverse psychology to get people to buy video games. Or propaganda to get people to buy them to keep idle people busy while politiciams destroy the economy and pass unethical legislation.
Do you take it as a personal challenge to turn any topic into a conspiracy theory?
"Early video games? Challenge accepted!"
Hahaha no not any topic. But think about it why do we have tv, and video games and all these other distractions that take up our time and prevent us from doing anything productive, and take our minds off being in church, or what our government is doing or how our economy is doing???
Why are all these things created that get our minds off serious topics or topics that really matter??
Wonder if people said the same thing about radios and movies during the Great Depression .... also gotta wonder how church made the greatest story ever told so boring that people can no longer stay interested in it. But this thread is for laughing so......
if when they added vocal soundtracks to movies they called them talkies, when they add scent accompaniment to movies will we start calling them smellies ? And will they add that to movies with bad smells or just ones with nice fresh outdoor scenes? I mean picnic in the park we all want to smell..... two day old battlefield or morgue not so much.
It is very possible, and I totally agree, yeah that would explain why I am here lol.
Well when movies came out they were silent films all you saw was movement and brief wording, then someone found away to synchronize words to the picture and that's how they became talkies, it's just in the transition they didn't know how to adapt the change so they added singing and dancing and made musicals.
I doubt they will ever be able to add smell or taste to movies it would defy the logic and laws of science. to do that you would need a device to alter he the state of mind to get that effect.
Besides you dont need movies to smell picnics in a park, pack a lunch and go to the park, feel free to go off line and enjoy reality lol
They said they same about novels when printing got easier. Churches do this about every new media that shows up. Awhile ago it was impossible for Christians to get into game design because churches said video games were evil. Ever heard of the Five Night at Freddy's games? The creator used to be a Christian game designer. But he got so much hassle from the church he just became a game designer. Now there targeting social media and the meta stuff. Same crap different media.
This is kind of the reason I don't condtribute to descussion much on this site anymore. It's hard to build validation to the Christian faith when it's members are subscribing to pointless speculation and the most absurd conspiracy theories.
There's an old saying, "Location, location, location is everything!" That saying even applies as to where one holds their worship services:

Off topic! We're supposed to be discussing early video games being sinister or something...
Wait, what was the topic again? I got lost back at the third switch around.
Did you ever think they were right look at all the churches closing now a days for compromising their stand and following the world.
They are right sometimes. However most of there fights are fear mongering and most likely greed related. Unfortunately far too few do any research on what there complaining about and mearly follow the leader. When I was a kid I heard that people would break into peoples houses and burn Goosebumps books. I didn't believe it as a kid but I do now. Regardless of what churches do or don't do the world will HATE us. I constantly hear about the end times and people s hearts growing cold, but everytime someone says no to a Christian for any reason the far right freak out. If movies and books can reach people and preach the Gospel, there is zero reason video games or social media can't. Believe what you want but I'm tired of living in constant fear.
Oh come on!
For years Christianity has been real popular, and people hollered about half-hearted Christians. Now Christianity is waning in popularity and all the half-hearted Christians are shaking out... so we can holler about losing headcount.
Either way I guess we'll find something to holler about.
