Review of The New 8-bit Heroes (2016) by Eric B — 23 Nov 2016
Honestly, I'm not sure what I expected with this movie. I saw a clip about a year before the full film came up and it was enough to get me interested but I wasn't accusing it to be as good as it was.
It's weird to see it because I've spoken to Joe about the journey and I've read when he was going through some of the struggles in the movie. But it was such a goofball idea, I couldn't imagine it would make for such a great story.
The movie goes into quite a bit of detail on the cult of Nintendo console gamers that exists. It's a great display of the struggles of creating a fully functional and reliable software product, including manufacturing, packaging and delivery. And somewhere in there, he finds a story we'd want to hear.
I would and have recommended this to my friends. And if you have the means to play it, I recommend the game as well.
