Ask any self-respecting 90s child and they should be able to tell you without a moment’s hesitation whether they sided with Mario or Sonic during the decade’s console wars (Sonic, since you ask, obviously).
Ask Seth Rogen the same question, however, and he will probably reply, “Hey I’m writing a film about that!” For that is precisely what Knocked Up actor is doing at the moment, alongside Evan Goldberg, according to a press release on Booktrade.
The Sony Pictures film will be based on Console Wars: Sega, Nintendo and the Battle that Defined a Generation, a new book by Blake Harris that will be published this August.
And while the film has yet to have a release date, we’re already breaking out our Game Gears in anticipation.
