Strip by: DryKirby

(The entire comic is drawn in a pixelated style.)
(Jon sits alone at a table. A musical chime is heard from off-screen.)
Video Game: Congratulations! You saved the princess!
(Jon looks surprised, then glares at Garfield. Garfield smiles a cheeky grin while playing his game.)

The author writes:

I've been reading SRoMG for a long time, but this is my first actual submission. I took a video game-related strip and turned it into an 8-bit comic. Although there are already 8-bit Garfield sprites (and a few comics in a similar style), this one is directly drawn over the original art. I even used a genuine NES palette, and included details like the signature and copyright information. I originally planned to do the whole series of video game strips, but it was more work than I expected. So there's only one strip instead. Sorry.

(Ed: I think this one synergises well with 2234.)
