George had a virtual boy. Confirmed George is a /vr/ enjoyer. What other games you think he played?
>>
startropics

frogger

Their SF2 mains:

Jerry - Ken
George - Bison
Kramer - Blanka
Elaine - Vega
Newman - Old Sagat

Combat, Breakout, stuff baby boomers actually played. Not Quake and Shadow Warrior and shit

I could see George playing Final Fantasy III

Americans back then called it Final Fantasy 3. Besides I would think even now George would be a massive normie.

OP here. Posted this on /tv/ yesterday and got the same exact comment but >>>/vr/ and my thread was deleted shortly after. And I’m sure as shit not posting this in /b/ so it stays here until further notice.

Meanwhile, Jerry enjoys SimCity on his SNES

The thing is, on the bookshelf in certain episodes, it's what the NES versions box would have been. It's not the Super NES, initially.

This is the right answer
>>12340658
Frogger definitely was though by 1998, which is when the Frogger episode first aired. Frogger was 17 years old by that point.

>>12340648
What's the other game?

Peterman: What was it you called this contraption again, George?
George: A Virtual Boy.
Peterman: A Virtual “Boy”? Why, there’s nothing boyish about it! Observe the color scheme! The sombre, obsidian trim… the deep, lusty red of its shell. This is not for “boys”, George. This is a console for MEN.
George: Exactly! It’s a console for MEN! That’s what I’ve been telling my mother!
Peterman: Tell me George, what is “virtual” about this “Virtual Boy”?
George: Well, if you just look through this part… Let me just power it on… and, voila. Virtual!
Peterman: Oh my…
George: What? “Oh my”? Why “Oh my”?
Peterman: It’s… it’s hideous.
George: You don’t like it?
Peterman: These brutal reds paint a picture so… so GOREY.
George: “Gorey”? I don’t know about “gorey”…
Peterman: It’s gorey, George, and I know a lot about gore. When I was researching and procuring pre-Islamic geometric patterns on a trip to Yemen…
George: I’m sure this is a great story, Mr. Peterman, but I really was just on my way out the door and I don't know if there's enough time...
Peterman: Right you are, George. Keen intuition. Anyway, time is short, but I MUST have this device.
George: You… must?
Peterman: Yes.
George: Even though it’s… “gorey”?
Peterman: BECAUSE it’s gorey, George.
George: I must warn you… it’s really not a very good system…
P: Even better!
G: It is?
P: Yes, and I’m prepared to offer you $4,000 right now for it.
G: You know these retail for $200, right?
P: Yes, but George, something about this specific “Virtual Boy” has seized my imagination. The greasy buttons of the controller, the decaying glue of the eyepiece, the thin layer of dust covering it… It is filled with lament. It exudes loneliness. It’s a testament to a life completely lacking of fulfillment or personal development. It must be put in a gallery. $4,000, George.
G: …I could be persuaded to part with it for 5.
P: Done.

Nah they wouldn't play street fighter. Mortal kombat is more their style.

>it's what the NES versions box would have been
why and how did people involved with the production of a tv show have access to contemporary unreleased game material?
>>
>>12340769
Seinfeld has a hidden subplot where Jerry and George are game testers for Nintendo. The real answer however is that NBC probably had a deal with Nintendo where they'd put new and upcoming games in the background and SimCity was just one of the boxes they sent the prop department. IIRC NES SimCity was canned in '91 right? If so that lines it up with the early seasons that it's in.
