The funny thing is that I have no doubt in anyone who tells me it’s good, I just can’t muster any enthusiasm or interest for it. I would probably enjoy it to at least some extent if I forced myself to play it, but

tbh, life’s too short to stick around a game if you don’t feel it, so don’t feel like there’s something missing, and rather ponder if you are ready to switch to a ‘never played it, but that’s OK’ mindset, that’s sometimes more interesting than you’d think!
People will have all kinds of opinions on whether you did or didn’t play title X, and even more interesting if they can accept it or try to advertise it — and that’s valid for both!
Why?
Well, it makes you reconsider engaging with the work of art/title X after a long while — maybe the first time after finishing it, or a decade+ later. Especially if people aren’t Top10 GotY-type of nerds, they may think critically about their beloved vidya, and that’s a net—plus anyway, isn’t it?
(stealth edit: yes, that’s three paragraphs of telling you ‘it’s OK’ when i wanted to go ‘but it is SO GOOOD’, telling ya a thing about applying it myself)

what can you send to print? Digital receipts I imagine, but I can’t think of one other thing other than maybe screenshots?

Being a power of 2 and aligning with 8-bit bytes were probably at least as important IMO, that kind of thing can streamline the hardware a lot. I think it’s one of those decisions that was overdetermined so you can’t point to one specific main reason.

I mean, yeah, that’s why classic tiles are 8x8.
I just found the specific post I quoted to be interesting because it explains why common PC screen resolutions are not powers of 2.

I heard that this year’s tickets that allow entry half an hour early are more sought after than before, and only the first batch of entrants will receive enough goods.

I maybe getting PSP Golf Game Pangya illicitly and apparently it has weird DRM and taken back to 2000s where Korean games (and the GP32) would have extreme DRM. I think one of them would just wipe your memory card if it detected illicit firmware.
