I remember, and this was when I was rather young, as I'm a child of the nineties, see - every once in a while, I could convince my dad into letting me rent a Super Nintendo game from the movie store.
Ah, the feeling - getting home, popping open the bulky plastic rental case. Blowing the dust out of the cartridge, popping it in and watching the system boot up.
And then you're angry. You're extremely angry. You rented Rock and Roll Racing. The cartridge says Rock and Roll Racing. But no - you're looking at some kind of Power Rangers. What is this madness?! Cartridge switching.
Used to infuriate me so, but I admit I may have been guilty of switching them a time or two myself once I figured it out. I suppose this is somewhat random of a thread, but if we're going to wax nostalgic over the system, might as well wax over it all, right?
