I never had a keyboard for my XBAND and didn't even know you could use them. I got fast with the onscreen keyboard and my fighting stick though!
I just realized the kid in the Atari Lynx commercial who asked for a bathroom break so he could play his Atari Lynx was Tobey Maguire! I was watching a history of that system and they played the commercial partway through..
The other video games related thing I realized he was in, in recent times was "The Wizard" starring Fred Savage and he was a background character who was buddies with the rival video game champ who said that the Power Glove was so bad!
BTW.. speaking on pocket sizes and the Atari Lynx well.. Jnco jeans back in the 90's had huge pockets that would be ideal for a large handheld although putting them in your pocket wasn't a good idea because for one thing the screen lenses tended to get scratched that way.. 😝
I just watched a YouTube video about the PC-98 game "Dead of The Brain" which I quickly realized is a lot like the 1985 horror film.. "Re-Animator"! (And they even mention that almost halfway through this video)
I've got a funny, aesthetic film to recommend here.. it's called Max Cloud and it's totally based on 90's video games and is full of the kind of lighting that I like and all kinds of sillyness!!
