GameStop
Was in GameStop shopping for fun stocking stuffers. Overheard a couple that got their kids a PS5 for Xmas and now just needed a game both could enjoy. The kids (9 & 12) are very much into "giant monster things". That couple looked so lost once the single swamped employee told em there are no PS5 Godzilla games. They had idea what to do and they seemed to get worried. I could see why King Kong Skull Island made sense as a solution by non gaming parent logic. Also mad props to that employee who pointed out Skull Island was a top contender for worst game of 2023. (Xmas is almost over. Hang in there man!)
I had a sudden flashback opening Animaniacs Bowling Xmas morning when I was 13. Loved the hell out of Animaniacs then but as expected with children's games based on established IPs, especially in the 90s, that game was cheaply developed with little content. Not the worst shovelware title I've seen but it was not a good game. And I saw this couple making the same mistake my mom did all those years ago but with kaiju instead of cartoons. I wanted to spare those kids that very specific feeling of disappointment. The kind where you have to put on a happy appreciative face because new games ain't cheap but deep inside your dying.
Anyway I suggested Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart for a safe bet kid game and a total joy across all ages with the wide range of difficulty settings. Parents seemed happy I was speaking from experience playing myself and GameStop guy backed me up. Wasn't giant monsters specifically but just great game all around. I left before the parents made their perchase but I'm fairly certain they got it.
At the very least those kids aren't waking up to Skull Island and it feels like GameStop guy and I did a little good for the world today.
EDIT. So far it seems like Superman on Nintendo 64 wins the #1 disappointer of Xmas mornings. My heart goes out to all the little past you's who were stuck with only that game with your new Nintendo 64s for months.
