just a real quick one

Sorry just a quick one I'm looking for a quote i saw here, its from a guy at nintendo who says something about computer games affecting people and if that was the case pacman would of affected kids of the 80s being in dark rooms eating pill looking things lisening to the same repiteve music.
If any can help that would be gold!
Thanks team

I looked it up and it turns out it's not a real quote. It's been debunked that no one in Nintendo ever said that.

"Video games don't affect kids. If Pacman had affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music."

(Sounds like a rave to me)

It was said by British comedian Marcus Brigstocke, not a Nintendo employee.

lol it does sound like something a comedian would say, but it would have been golden if it did come from nintendo, that would be classic.

Thanks heaps for posting your a champ.

Lol even if it is from a comedian, that's still one hell of a quote.
