The E3 of 1995

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the gaming-history dept.

simoniker writes "Having just finished the glut of gaming goodness that is E3, GameSetWatch has dug out the E3 show plans from 1995, the first ever iteration of the massive video game show, revealing, among other things, that 'Sega had the largest booth of the show (larger than any first-party's today)', and that 'John Wayne Bobbitt made an appearance at a Petree booth'. Pretty much business as usual, then!"

    The animal pictured is Mustela putorius furo. It is a small, curious animal that has been domesticated since at least the time of Aristophanes. The ferret, as furo is known colloquially, is a companion animal to millions of Americans and Europeans. It is appreciated for its good humor, constant curiosity, and charismatic personality. The ferret's habitat includes basements, condos, and apartments. Its diet chiefly consists of a high protein ferret kibble, punctuated by whatever raisins and other tasty treats it may beg for from its owner. Due to antiquated law, it is illegal to own a ferret in California, New York City, and Hawaii.
