Good Game, No Rematch

*An Inside Hook Book You Should Be Reading This April*

A "funny, genuine and knowledgeable" (Ben Schwartz) memoir about the video games that entertain and inspire us, and even hold the power to transform our lives, from an Emmy®-nominated television writer, stand-up comedian and former writer for Nintendo.

At the ripe age of three, Mike Drucker got his very first Nintendo console—the Nintendo Entertainment System—and he was hooked. Every video game felt like a new chapter was opening in his life, expanding his world for the better and—sometimes—for worse. Final Fantasy VII, for example, helped him navigate the pitfalls of an early crush. And Dance Dance Revolution taught him how to almost, kinda move his body appropriately to music. Mike split his career between gaming and comedy, landing an internship with Saturday Night Live, playing Wii Sports with the cast and crew, and then a job at Nintendo, where he named an iconic character in the Legend of Zelda series. Then he returned to comedy with a job writing for The Tonight Show, never forgetting the video games that brought him there.

Drucker shares stories of beloved classic games, including:
  • NBA Jam
  • Street Fighter II
  • Mortal Kombat
  • Super Mario Brothers
  • Zelda
  • King’s Quest
  • The Sims
  • Dungeons & Dragons
  • and more!

Good Game, No Rematch is a love letter to video games and the people who play them, from an endearingly nerdy voice in the world of comedy.
