  • Videogames As Remediated Memories: Commodified Nostalgia and Hyperreality in Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Gone Home
    Videogames as remediated memories: commodified nostalgia and hyperreality in Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Gone Home Robin Sloan This is the author's version of a work that was accepted for publication in Games and Culture, deposited in Abertay Research Collections: https://repository.abertay.ac.uk/jspui/ The published version of this article is available from DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/1555412014565641 Running head: VIDEOGAMES AS REMEDIATED MEMORIES 1 Abstract In the last decade, the maturation of the first generation of gamers has underpinned growing discussion of nostalgia for and in videogames. This paper considers how the search for a connection to our past can be satisfied through consumption of the richly remediated memories represented in nostalgic videogames. Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Gone Home are analysed framed by Baudrillard’s theories of consumer objects and simulation. These videogames make extensive use of 1980s and 1990s cultural referents. In particular, they embed references to media (such as music, film, and television) that epitomise memories of these periods. The aim of the paper is to discuss the ways in which the videogames commodify nostalgia in order to fulfil a consumer need for retrospection, and to examine the extent to which they provide a simulation of cultural memory that blurs historical reality with period modes of representation. Keywords: hyperreality, memory, nostalgia, remediation, videogames VIDEOGAMES AS REMEDIATED MEMORIES 2 Introduction Over the course of the 7 th generation of videogames (approximately 2005-2013 and including the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and Wii) there has been a growing fascination with collective memories of both videogames and gaming culture.

  • Nostalgia Games: Replaying the Past M. Gonlin Submitted in Fulfilment Of
    Nostalgia Games: Replaying The Past M. Gonlin Submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Bachelor of Arts (MECO), Honours Department of Media and Communications, University of Sydney October 2017 Abstract This thesis aims to analyse the function of a “nostalgia game” – games that intentionally reference to the past to broaden their appeal. The two games chosen for analysis are Yacht Club Games’ Shovel Knight (2014) and Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017). Shovel Knight exemplifies a game purposefully designed as a celebration of classic videogames on the NES form the late 1980s to early 1990s by using retro aesthetics and old game design conventions. Breath of the Wild demonstrates how a game series looks to its roots for innovation – the original Legend of Zelda released in 1986. The analysis will be divided in two sections for each game. The first section looks at the recurrence of game mechanics and references both games make through the concept of “remediation” (Bolter & Grusin, 1999) and how the games use nostalgia. The second section looks at the micro-temporalities of the games and how they reflect the games they are referencing. These micro-temporalities are referred to as “seriality” (Denson & Jahn- Sudmann, 2015). The wider purpose of this thesis is to lay the groundwork for future research into the field of nostalgic videogames. i Acknowledgements I wish to express my most sincere thanks to Dr Christopher Chesher for supervising me during the writing of this thesis and for the many hours spent during consultations. I am also thankful to Dr Fiona Giles and Dr Stephen Owen for the lectures and tutorials which helped me flesh out my ideas.

Newman This thesis explores Nintendo’s past and present games and marketing, linking them to the broader trend of the commodification of nostalgia. The use of nostalgia by Nintendo is a key component of the company’s brand, fueling fandom and a compulsive drive to recapture the past. By making a significant investment in cultivating a generation of loyal fans, Nintendo positioned themselves to later capitalize on consumer nostalgia.
