Same with Transformers, too.

It was a pretty good cartoon.

So at least they were putting time and effort and thought into this.

But yeah, it's pretty despicable marketing to kids in general.

Actually, I read a blog.

I'm certainly glad you were a satisfied viewer.

Is that it?

I think so.

I've actually heard it both ways.

Yeah.

But I read this blog that basically said that, man, I wish I could find it.

I got you.

I just wanted to fill it out by saying it the other way.

So there's this YouTuber named Nintendrew, and he has a video called 10 Weird NES Facts.

Maybe I'll post this when we release it, that the deregulation killed the creativity in children's cartoons.

And he talks about that key chip thing where people were trying to get around it.

and that they said that before you know it there were just like things were knockoffs of one another they didn't care about I guess I mean you were a kid so maybe you didn't realize it that was too stupid to know what was going on they said that you know you can see a clear demarcation line between really good storytelling and then storytelling that was clearly just geared to sell things

And he said other companies didn't even bother to come up with a chip.

They just used a low voltage spike to scramble the brains of the lock.

chip so that it wouldn't work anymore, and now the game could be played.
