after writing the wiki article for Barbie (1984) as an early video game for girls, i'm researching Barbie Fashion Designer (1996). you may laugh but there's like a million women out there for who this was their first video game. in 1996 this sold more than quake or doom

"Elf Monopoly", I intone. My children immediately start crying. My wife tugs on my shoulder. "Please," she feebly protests, "not Elf Monopoly. Not tonight". I slam my fists on the table, knocking over the wacky Will Ferrell player piece and Elf Dollars. Christmas night is ruined

I found this cursed 2000s mouse stuffed into a drawer at work. I think that the default way to interface with a computer should be to rotate a giant fleshlike orb
