Yes, it lists (bottom)--Asagoth (talk) 06:11, 26 October 2021 (EDT)
Oh awesome, thanks for pointing it out :) Got it added back. CartridgeCulture (talk) 06:26, 26 October 2021 (EDT)
Kids Go Hojo did not started with Sega... it started in April 1990 ... initially with other franchises such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (kids who joined the Kids Go HoJo Fun Club at the time were also provided with toys, the very first edition of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Magazine and a t-shirt of the club for example)... but it only became a thing when Howard Johnson's partnered with Sega :) ...--Asagoth (talk) 13:56, 26 October 2021 (EDT)
"The chain will also sponsor an international videogame championship at 100 of its properties..."...--Asagoth (talk) 16:03, 26 October 2021 (EDT)

Sega Game Gear Tips actors...

What about those two guys?... I know that the actor who plays the guest is known, but I can't remember his name... but what about the other guy? (I don't know why but he reminds me a bit of Kyle Anderson from "Last Man Standing" :) ...) I could almost swear to have seen this guy in another show back then, but I might be wrong... his face looks familiar...--Asagoth (talk) 04:52, 27 October 2021 (EDT)

im dying, this article is the funniest thing ever. thank you for enlightening me to this, the research is awesome. And yeah, his face is kinda familiar, but I cant place it either. I think I have a vague memory of seeing either an interview or something with one of these guys years later, but I can't remember where to find it. Either way, if you remember what the guest's name is, please share :) I'd love to get a mention or two added, especially on the video-specific articles ;) CartridgeCulture (talk) 05:03, 27 October 2021 (EDT)
Yep :)... it would be cool to have some information about those two guys ... maybe we'll get lucky...--Asagoth (talk) 05:12, 27 October 2021 (EDT)
I discovered the name of the actor who played the guest ... it's Canadian actor / voice actor Robert Brewster (here and here)... he starred in at least two episodes of the original release of Nicklodeon's Are You Afraid of the Dark? horror anthology television series, in the role of a "dad /father" ... one of the episodes is The Tale of the Ghastly Grinner (+ 07:23) ... =) ... --Asagoth (talk) 15:30, 27 October 2021 (EDT)
