Quote from Adam in Eight-bit Goldbergs
Adam: Well, there's always a main hero, like Mario here. And see those hammers? Those are like power-ups. Beverly: Schmoo, take your Flintstones vitamin so you can grow big and strong like Bamm-Bamm. Adult Adam: [v.o.] Eating my own power-up made me realize I didn't have to look very far for inspiration. Murray: I'm home! Adam: Wait, that's it! We'll make the game about my insane family. Dave Kim: And that's entertaining how? Murray: I had a good day! Don't anybody spoil it by talking to me! Adam: See? Every good game has a big snorting boss who stomps around making everyone miserable! And we need stuff for our hero to dodge, like barrels and fire and dopey wandering henchmen. [Barry punches Adam] Owww-why? Barry: 'Cause maybe I want to sit in that chair at some point today! [Erica plays notes on the keyboard] Adult Adam: [v.o.] My game was writing itself. I even got an annoying video game theme song, thanks to my aimless sister. Erica: Wait. That's it! I got my hit song! Banana, banana Banana, banana Ba-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. That sucks. Adult Adam: [v.o.] Yep, the Goldbergs would become an actual computer game. But was the world ready? Murray: Bevy! I forgot to take my shoes off, and now they're stuck! Damn it, I'm pants-trapped again! Adam: Eh, we'll tone it down for America, make 'em more likable.
