Usually the same people who insist N64 had "better multiplayer culture"?

In N64 circles IME, renting was so frantic. It would be Friday night and someone's older brother had a Civic with one functioning speaker and suddenly you were in a florescent aisle trying to decide between WCW/nWo Revenge and a Game with a cracked label because "it looks sick". No one read the back of the box. No one asked about genre lineage. One kid would say "this one has blood" and that was the entire extent of the acquisition model.

Discuss.

I never got it either. The video store that I had fond memories was this huge independent one in a strip mall that had a massive selection and these obscure B-movies, it was great.

I don't romanticize blockbuster qua blockbuster, but I do romanticize that era of America. The time of our youth: the world was simpler, more innocent, and full of possibility.

Mom let us rent an R rated action flick and she said the brothers who live around the corner can stay over tonight
