See what happens when video game genres are allowed to breed with whatever they want to! Now, nothing makes sense anymore. It used to be so simple when all we had was Pong.

Pong was too complicated. It's a frigging stick that has to hit a dot! What do you think we are, nuclear physicists? >_>

You know, now that I think about it, what the hell was Pong?  Puzzle?  Sport?  JRPG?  I  guess it was never simple.
