You could end any political debate about education spending by showing a clip of Dan Ryckert. Everyone would instantly agree that you need to spend more on schools to avoid that ever from happening again.
It's a bit unfortunate that a form factor that was pretty much designed to be factory-installed in laptops became dominant for SSDs. Something designed with the end user in mind, and not purely around space constraints would be much easier to deal with. Alternatives are slowly cropping up in enterprise and data center drives, but on the consumer side, we'll be stuck with M.2 for a long time.
Cutting from Brad jumping to the player ghost falling from the same spot in Danny's game was a brilliant touch. Now I'm just wondering if it was a complete coincidence, or if there was some ridiculous high-effort shenanigans to generate the desired footage.

Radar Rat Race was one of the games HAL Labs developed for Commodore. It's not known who exactly did what, but Satoru Iwata definitely worked on some of them.
The sounds that play when picking up gems are the same as when flying through rings in NiGHTS. The Nightopian "A-life" was also the first iteration of the Tims in Balan Wonderworld (via Sonic's Chaos).
Is Yuji Naka still trying the perfect concepts from over 20 years ago, or has he completely run out of ideas and is just running on name brand recognition and nostalgia?
Edit: For those who are saying the game is made for small children, it has an ESRB rating of E10+, and a PEGI 7. For children in those age ranges, there are far, far better games, and if it really was aimed at toddlers, the developers seriously missed the mark.
