“Popular Music in the Nostalgia Video Game supplies an interesting discourse into a region where one would not expect popular music and its heritage to be forcefully present. … offers some insights on how variations of ‘authenticity,’ ‘memory,’ and ‘reproduction’ work in this genre.” (A. Ebert, popcultureshelf.com, May 24, 2019)
