I know I should be in bed now being from Brexit Island, but just caught the Tokyo 2020 sizzle stuff at the Rio 2016 Closing Ceremony. Much videogame-related ness! Although it was a cool high-tech vision of the future, Mario and Pac-Man still made an appearance - in fact, the Tokyo President appeared from a large green warp pipe wearing Mario's clothes. Also after the dancing and projection mapping, it ended with fireworks and the music from the end level of Mario Bros.
Maybe I did dream it? Someone needs to chuck video here to prove I wasn't dreaming...
