"Chris Kohler brings the passionate intensity of a hardcore fan to his writing, but he also has the background knowledge and the critical facilities to explore video games as an industry, as a medium, and as a cultural phenomenon." -- Wired.Why are Japanese video games a worldwide sensation? This enjoyable and informative survey explores the reasons, starting with how Japanese developers raised the medium to an art form. The book also traces the ways in which the developers' ideas infused popular culture beyond the gaming world.
Interviews, anecdotes, and personal accounts offer insights from giants of the industry, including Shigeru Miyamoto, Hideo Kojima, and others involved in the creation of Donkey Kong, Mario, Pok mon, and other games. This revised edition includes updated material throughout the book as well as a new bonus chapter.
"While it appears that Japanese gaming is on the wane today, it's worth your time to read about an era when nothing could be further from the truth." -- IGN
"Quite excellent... a great read." -- Hardcore Gaming 101
"Direct and insightful ... I believe that it belongs on the top shelf of any collector." -- Steve Kent, author of The Ultimate History of Video Games

Dropped LDL by 38 at one year check up
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I am a 48 year old female weighing 126 lbs. I want to praise this product for reducing cholesterol levels. I have seen the cardiologist to be proactive since my dad died of heart disease and because it runs on both sides of the family. My cholesterol levels have been borderline high for several years but not to the point of needing medication. In April 2025 it was the highest levels so far. I had been eating healthy cereals and exercising at that time so I was surprised it had increased. I have taken this supplement daily for a full year without missing many doses. I just had my yearly check up on April 1, 2026, and my total cholesterol dropped by 37 and the bad LDL dropped by 38. I am very please with my results. All my levels were in the optimal range except the LDL and It was in the nearly optimal range per the Labcorp graph and total cholesterol was in the acceptable range. I have not exercised in 8 months and I eat a lot of fast food, so this product is the only explanation for the improvement. I also started the Megared CoQ10 about 5 weeks before my labs but it wouldn't be long enough to be that helpful yet. I am going to stay on the CoQ10 in addition to the Megared 4 in 1 product to see if it further lowers the LDL to the optimal range next year.
In one year with no diet changes or exercise:
Cholesterol total went from 228 to 191
LDL Cholesterol went from 161 to 123
The only thing I do not like about the product is the price but with those results I can't complain. It is worth it.

Stay healthy
Good pill size, and new lemon flavor. Has all the great omega Three, and fish oil for brain, heart and joints. Good price and quality. Easy to swallow with no bad burping as long as you keep it refrigerated. Works fast and is a great choice.
