Over the last 18 months, I've been doing a lot of thinking about the industry, and the culture that is has produced over the last 30 years. I'm on the verge of becoming 30 myself, and had the obvious realization that videogames have been a part of my life as far back as I can remember. Older brother came home one night with a NES Deluxe Set. The rest is history.
The recent death of Mr. Yamauchi got me thinking more about our culture, and the lack of any real centralized foundation that's archiving all the amazing things that our industry has accomplished over the last 30 years.
It's very much needed and I think it's a damn shame that the biggest publishers out there, won't take the initiative, and pony up the capital required to get something like this going. Shame on you guys.
So where does that leave us? Well, there's nothing like the premier community for our culture, NeoGAF. So here we are
I would love to have this thread became an archive of all things that make us so proud of our beloved culture. So here's what I'm thinking. Post anything about our culture that makes you proud, brings you joy, annoys the shit out of you, or has simply made an impact on you.
It can be a piece of art, a memory of yours, music, a meme, pictures of an arcade, food, that ultimate Third Strike perry comeback Evo clip, the Twilight Princess unveil, Kaz saying Ridge Racer, an old GameFan cover, Mikami saying Don't Pee Your Pants, a link to the 8-4 podcast, anything relating to the culture.
Let's make a thread together that just oozes culture. Something that we can skim through at any given time, and just makes us feel great about the industry that we love so much. If you really love the culture, subscribe to this thread, and like makes this the most ultimate archive ever.
