RE: My Played Video Games Review: Plok! for the Super Nintendo

in Hive Gaming5 months ago

This was one of those games that I skipped in favor of grabbing some titles that were on clearance at the time. I figured I would grab this on clearance later or something.

I cannot really pinpoint why I skipped Plok, especially considering I was into platformers at the time. Maybe it was that EB I was frequenting didn't have a copy to put in their demo machine for me to try out? I remember seeing it one weekend, went back the next and it was sold (they did not order many copies of this one) and they never got it back in stock.

I could have gone to the mall three blocks away to Software Etc but they were always $12 higher than EB on Super Nintendo games. No idea why. Conversely, they were $5 cheaper on 3DO and Atari Jaguar games but I still bought at EB because, well, EB was better to their customers and had staff that knew games. Software Etc, at that location at least, hired almost exclusively "pretty women" that obviously did not care about gaming of any kind, but they brought in the mall rats roaming the walkways.

...hired almost exclusively "pretty women"...


A deplorable practice also done in my country since it gained independence from America .😅
