Screenshot of a page of the 2026 MAGFest Power magazine. “Masashi Kageyama’s MAGFest story began in January 2012 on a small side stage set up at MAGFest X. Autoscroll - an alter ego of Philadelphia chiptune band Cheap Dinosaurs devoted to covering VGM tunes - played a set that might have set a MAGFest record for most VGM deep cuts in a single performance. In the middle of the set was Just Friends, from Gimmick! for the Famicom (NES). At the front of the crowd armed with an iPhone was emfedex, dutifully documenting the performance as she had done with many chiptune shows before. This video was Kageyama-san’s first exposure to MAGFest. From what I understand, his first reaction upon finding the video was confusion: who was this band? Why were they playing a song he had written decades ago from a game that was never released in their country? Were they trying to pass off his composition as their own? Emily explained the situation - the band was paying tribute to his music. With that understanding a friendship was born that opened a whole new world to Kageyama! The MAGFest crowd was fully aware of the song’s origins - the band had handed out printed copies of their setlist to the audience, complete with game and composer credits. After this clarification, he was genuinely appreciative: Kage-san’s impression was that Gimmick! and his soundtrack was not well received. He has stated that part of the reason why he stopped composing for games “probably had to do with the fact that there was almost no response whatsoever to the work I created.” Yet here there was- a band who had discovered his work, performing it to an audience of enthusiastic VGM fans. What followed was a flurry of Facebook friend requests from Kageyama - starting mostly with the band members but extending to the broader western chiptune and VGM scene. He had found a community of folks making music using video game hardware, and at the same time a pocket of foreigners who were ardent fans of his music.”

A comment from Marshall Art reads “In "every official NES console"? This is toploader erasure and I will not stand for it. 🤣”. The comment is intended to be tongue in cheek.
