I was 13 and reading stuff like Forgotten Realms and Discworld at the time, and HP seemed much more like a childrens book to me so I ignored it. Was I a dumb teenager overestimating the maturity level of myself and what I liked? Yes. Did that turn out to be the optimal thing for me to do? Also yes.

The @retronauts.bsky.social Samurai Shodown episode where you talk about working with SNK to get this done was really interesting (I'm terribly behind on all my podcasts and only just listened to it last fall even though the episode is from 2020)

Yeah we've had these in Finland since like the 70s except they're connected to the sink, they're great. There's also a famous ad from 1978 featuring a naked man with a very era-appropriate moustache/sideburns combo sitting on the toilet washing his crotch

This is the only Wikipedia article I've ever edited (I fixed a small error in the title of some book in the 'Further reading' section in like 2012)

It didn't come out here the second time around either, because when the US got Playstation compilations of FFV + FFVI and FFIV + CT, Europe got FFIV + FFV and FFVI + a demo of FFX instead (I got a used import copy of CT in 1997, it's my favorite game of all time)

The fake Neo Geo game on the right is funny because it almost predicts a future game. The characters are clearly Haohmaru (Samurai Shodown) and Todoh (Art of Fighting), but the only time they've been playable in the same game is in Capcom vs SNK 2, which is not on the Neo Geo because it's by Capcom

Finland's biggest gaming magazine Pelit, which only covered PC games at the time, jokingly referred to FF7 as "ISBWB - Interactive Story Book With Battles"

It's so good. I was immediately sold on the album when the lead single was a 7 minute song with a 3,5 minute intro, now that's the Cure I know and love
