'86

[Verse 1]
In the year of '86 franchises here the pioneers
In the days when games were few
Here the NES sailed out into the worldwide crowd
Sweetest sight ever seen
And Zelda paved the way
For open worlds here to stay
And Metroid followed in style
For many a lonely day trekked across Planet Zebes
Never looked back, never feared, never cried

[Chorus]
Don't you see the dawn of so many vidya games
See the dawn of something new
It's the eve of something grand
Controller firmly in your hand
In the time that our medium grew

[Verse 2]
In the year of '86 came a genre from the blue
JRPGs were born that day
And they bring XP and the Dragon Quest IP
Though the years Oda would play
With Castlevania we were graced, difficulty that we'll face
And the rise of Konami
Oh so many years are gone though I'm playing every year
My favorite things and what brings me to /v/

[Chorus]
Don't you see the dawn of so many vidya games
See the dawn of something new
It's the eve of something grand
Controller firmly in your hand
In the time that our medium grew

[Chorus 2]
Don't you see the dawn of so many vidya games
See the dawn of something new
All releases that are grand never feeling like it's bland
And my board
Still alive
Busy /v/
