This brought back so many memories. As someone who bought games exclusively from Funcoland (the first new video game I bought was in 2015) it was always hit or miss if te manual would be included. Apparently some kids would throw these out (!!) and they were not included when resold. This was incomprehensible to my preteen brain. They were magical and I miss them almost as much as I miss liner notes for albums.

Funcoland! Good god, I forgot about Funcoland.
Also, the perfect illustration of the truism: children are idiots.
