Chris Kohler!

[aparrish]

I saw Chris Kohler in the Gamestop on Broadway today! I know it was him because he was wearing this shirt. I totally should have asked him about the Yoshi games! That would have been an awkward conversation.

Me: Hey, Chris Kohler. What do you think of those Yoshi games?
Chris: Oh, uh... Yoshi? Yoshi's Island is good, I guess, and they've got that one for the DS...
Me: No, not those Yoshi games.
Chris: ... Yoshi's Cookie?
Me: You know which Yoshi games I'm talking about.
Chris: Get away from me!
Me: MIND WARPING FINGERNAILS

Yeah, that would have been awesome.

I actually ran into Chris Kohler when I was at E3 in 2006 (my first time going)... I did ask him about the Yoshi games, I told him I enjoyed the games when I played them, and he thought that was pretty cool, actually. He even remembered who I was after looking at my badge - The height of my ZZT/MZX days was a bit after Kohler's, I think. I also got my old ZZT site mentioned in his "Retro Gaming Hacks" book :)
