>you speak of VHS as if it were a myth or a rare mystical creature of ages long past...
With Blockbuster being gone, and places such as Tower Records no longer around either, it probably took some extra effort to track down a forgettable movie such as Gas. There are specialty outfits that sell legitimate production DVD discs of made for tv movies that were an industry standard up to 1990s before cable came along and all of the made for tv switched to cable companies instead. I was able to find some movies for sale from some online outfit that one of my relatives was in as child actor back in 1970s. He was able to get Peter Graves "Underground Man" (a made for tv special) and another I forget the name.
Maybe the odd irony is the minor publicity that Gas is temporarily getting because of mention of a Nintendo WG cab might get the movie a slim long shot odds chance of getting a disc release issue.
I envision Frank Bonner's tv character WKRP's salesman Herb Tarlek with sales pitch
"Purchase our movie Gas. The only film that includes a WG cab in operation being shown in the film."
