Frogger - Seinfeld

1 year ago

@BigGnome Frogger came up earlier. I'm still split on it. It's a major part of that episode and is mentioned by name, but as a requirement I want footage of the game itself to be shown on screen. I kinda feel that if I open it up to any mention of a video game that it kinda changes what the spirit of the list is, but at the same time it's such a big part of that episode.

Are you counting WoW in South Park? They must have used like a modded version of the game and/or just exported assets and re-used them in their own engine. It's a pretty close approximation, though.

@cowboyjosh As you said, they are using a modified version in order to make what's happening on the screen fit with the narrative of the episode, though they are still presenting it as WoW and I feel like it looks authentic enough that it counts, though it is a little bit of a stretch.

The key thing for me is that the game is shown graphically. If it's just mentioned then that opens the door to a lot more submissions and kinda muddies things by making the scope a bit too broad.

I can't confirm this one myself, but I've heard Manifest also has Killer Instinct.

This is a clip of Suite Life on Deck that (kind of) has Cave Story and some other games I can't identifty. Not sure if you'll count them, but still insane to see:

https://youtu.be/R5EJQWtXwro

The original Street Fighter is in IT: Chapter Two.

@electrode Got those added! I think Cave Story counts, it's pretty identifiable even if it's just two repeating frames. The other games look vaguely familiar but I can't quite pin them down. I think one is Frogger but idk, it could be some top down racing game.
