If you\u2019ve never heard of Tokimeki Memorial<\/em>, then you should go watch this six-hour-long video<\/a><\/span> from former Kotaku<\/em> staffer Tim Rogers on why the game is so important. But if you don\u2019t have all day for that, then let me give you the short version. Released in 1994, the game isn\u2019t the first dating sim ever made but it is one that helped codify the genre\u2019s core pillars, putting players in the shoes of a high school boy who manages relationships with a bunch of cute girls he can romance. <\/p>\n
