A video game mistake on Television

Post by Calavera »

On a television program one of the prizes was a Sega Saturn and the announcer said with arcade hits like Sonic 3D blast, Nights into Dreams and Daytona USA. Now correct me if I'm wrong but Nights Into Dreams and Sonic 3D Blast was never arcade games.

Arcade can also refer to the catagory of game, just like puzzle or RPG. If you want to claim those 3 games aren't, then you're just arguing semantics.

You do realise you're talking to a person who wanted a full-scale riot because nickelodeon replaced a kid show's time spot with....another kid's show like it...

More importantly why is a TV show giving away a Saturn as a prize? Not that there is anything wrong with the Saturn but its not like you can go and buy a load of games for it at your local high street.

It wasn't a new show, I think it was filmed in 1997.
