Remember you had to ask a person when you were stuck in a game? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
When I was a teen, I had a friend call me on the phone one Friday evening to help him beat a Donkey Kong Country level because he knew I had the Nintendo Player’s Guide.
We spent 30 minutes troubleshooting that shit. One of my best experiences as a child.
There was a time where the only way to beat the Water Temple was to ask that one kid in school to come over to your house to do it for you.
I remember buying hint books or calling the developer's tip hotline directly.
I think I might actually still have a hint book buried somewhere for Hugo's house of horrors... I hadn't thought about it in probably decades but your comment just reminded me.
