    @OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games I’m still not sure why the authors of Marvel vs. Capcom articles thought SonSon was female around this time rather than young.

    This seems like one of the earliest instances of Red Bull in gamer culture. I thought Bawls was the dominant energy beverage trying to replace caffeinated sodas in the niche, but maybe that was regional.

    MvC2 was a good port on Dreamcast (thanks to the arcade version being on NAOMI), but my fingers did not enjoy the triggers on its stock controller.

      @JTO_is_Typing@mstdn.games there might have been others, but the first instance that I noticed of Red Bull appearing in a game was in WipEout 2097.
      I believe it was in Formula 1 as well in PSone. But I’m not sure if that was before or after 2097.
