The latest sign appeared on a recent episode of AEW Dynamite, floating along the main entrance barrier. In huge, blocky text it reads: ALADDIN FOR SNES IS INFERIOR.
I mean, wow. Where to begin?
This sign actually stems from a long-term debate about the SNES Aladdin adaptation and how it stacks up to its Sega Genesis counterpart. As pointed out by The Gamer, each version has its own merits, with Aladdin on SNES primarily being known for having a Jasmine-themed bonus stage and tighter controls.
On the other hand, the Genesis version does have more movie songs and Aladdin gets a sword.
While I’m on the fence about this hot take, I can definitely see where this wrestling fan is coming from. It’s a hot take, but swords are pretty cool and they might actually be right about the SNES’ inferiority.
In the same episode of Dynamite, Gregg also spotted a second, more passive sign.
Between Sting taking potshots, he noticed a wrestling fan with a sign bearing ominous words: REMEMBER SKIES OF ARCADIA.
This RPG is often considered one of Sega’s best but as the sign implies, it’s a game that’s rarely given the acclaim or attention it deserves. In 2020, rumours of a remaster were kickstarted by developers but sadly, we’ve seen nothing since.
Remember Skies of Arcadia? We hope Sega does one day, and that this sign kicks off a renewed interest in the game.
As debate around the best RPG games continues, we can expect to see WWE and AEW wrestling fans barracking the fort long into the future. Now that the RPG sign war has gone mainstream, we can expect to see more and more of this essential, much-needed commentary.
