Good news, I have made it to 1991 after reading through some dull choose your own adventure books.

We definitely need a special version of Star Wars Droids, next year will be its 40th anniversary.

I feel the Jabba portion was the better portion of RotJ actually as it fleshed out a lot of new alien species and had a darker atmosphere. Endor felt, like you said, rather slow. It had nothing to do with prejudice against Ewoks, it just is a problem where more than half the movie is stuck on a planet filled with nothing but woods with mostly stealth operations and some musicals. RotJ suffers from too many musicals, I loathe that new song in Jabba's palace. The space battle mostly suffers from being highly forgettable, it occurs so quickly and features fast dogfighting to the point that I tend to forget what even occurs until I rewatch it.

Heh, I got lucky to be born at the beginning of the real internet age, I was always able to be supplied games through downloading at the least. But back then, they were far from perfect, you knew they were bootlegs. It is sad that I remember the installation music of various cracks. Plus I had a slow computer that would take ages to install a game. It is always amazing to install a game from my past and see just how easy it is nowadays.

I lucked out with Star Wars toys, they definitely made up a good part of my collection of action figures. I had two containers worth of them by the end. At some point I realized video games were better, getting 100 stormtroopers is a lot cheaper and easier in a game, plus they don't break when you "destroy them".

Never really bothered with Galactic Conquest. Sprinting was definitely memorable, but I never really had problems not sprinting in Battlefront 1.

Curse you Orthodox Jesus!

Indeed, the games seem to have luckily avoided the craziness that some of the stories did... well, beyond that Japanese one where Darth Vader is a scorpion.

It has been too long, I couldn't tell you anything about that series. I can tell you about Torpedo Spheres however, mini-Death Stars that prove the Empire lacks creativity.
