A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Table Tennis Ultra Mega Tournament is anything but tiny. Basketball became an Olympic medal sport in 1936, while women’s basketball joined the Olympic programme in 1976. And then there is this: Nintendo's Donkey Kong arrived in 1981 and introduced the character first known as Jumpman, who later became Mario. The screen is modern; the urge to test skill, pattern and timing definitely is not.
