The following commentary is properly placed on this track's main release, 9, where it's named Moshi Finds a NES.

Don't let the name fool you, this song mostly exists because I wanted to do something with Dialup from Vol 8 which is a song I like way too much. I decided to do what I always do: make a chiptune thing combining it with other random songs, and slap the Moshi label on it for good measure. I think it turned out pretty well even though I'll probably never surpass that one song from my solo album that's on Greatest Hits. I'm not joking, Makin literally told me to make this more like that song.

Bob drew the NES, the Nintendo-esque "Cool and New Music Team" logo at the bottom, and the CANMT-Tan Seal of Approval. He also sketched up a general outline for how the image would go, which I followed the best I could (while also putting my own take on it). His sketch for Moshi Moshi's boxart looked like Dr. Eggman lying down on a level of Super Mario Bros., so... that's what I drew. The quotes on the upper-left are also taken verbatim from the image outline, because I think they're perfect the way they are. The background with the fuchsia lines is actually an image from one of the endgame levels of FEZ. I included it because I thought it looked 80s, I guess. This entire image was meant to feel dated, like it was actually from thirty years ago, so I tried to reference some NES-era boxarts (like Mega Man 2) with how I wrote the text. Lastly, I added a sepia filter over the whole thing to sell the whole "thirty years ago" aesthetic. Bob, if you're reading this, I hope I did good.

I ended up replacing Eggman with Fat Vrasky, which was what was intended from the original outline. One final note of commentary is that I drew both Eggman and Vrasky deliberately using only colors that the NES could display, to make it as authentic as possible. Alright, now I'm done, I swear!
