Don't know if you knew about this, only that I didn't, and that it might affect *TPM:

Since he didn't die ITTL, did he audition, successfully or otherwise?

Umm those did were thing I didn't knew about Star Wars....but again..did he was intended to be Mace Widu all along? early version say widu was toshio mifune in space but still, who knews, we will take that note, thanks for the tip-
Hmm, the Game Boy Nova. I like it, along with a new FF8. There's only one thing I want to work. PLEASE MAKE SQAULL'S CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT ACCELERATE!!!! HIS DEMANOR IN DISC ONE IS THE SOLE REASON I CAN'T FINISH THE GAME!!!!!
I know it's still down the pipeline a ways, but will FF9 remain a gaiden game ITTL as originally planned in OTL? Or has it been butterflied away at this point?
Umm otl was planned as that? why? again here FF being even more experimental can end anywhere, again FFIX was Sakaguchi own pet project so this possible he would spearhead when Parasite Eve and *VIII are finished
Originally, FF9 was meant to be a lighthearted nostalgic throwback, to contrast the original games (FF1-FF5) with the darker sci-fi-ish trend of FF6-FF7-FF8, but late in development Square decided to rebrand it as a proper installment in the main series. There's never been a real explanation as to why, beyond speculation that they thought it'd help sales.
Curious, the only FF i would call 'Lighthearted' is FF5(And that is with the troperific self reference and sentai-esque humor, the game have his big share of drama), the other the model was high-low fantasy with star wars esque plot every even number(2,4,6), And Ultima Esque every odd one(1,3,5).
But reading credits sakaguchi was scenario writer meaning always was more 'traditional' in plot, so may got otl or may not we will wait till 1999 TGS.
So more comment about the update or previous one, we got a reference will make happy some readers and other original stuff
Speaking of games that aren't made in Japan, how's Insomniac doing because this month IOTL, Spyro the Dragon is released.
We're not revealing any details on Final Fantasy IX for a good while yet but I will say that while it will have a few elements of OTL Final Fantasy IX, by now butterflies will have transformed the game quite a bit.
Do you mean Elly, from OTL Xenogears? Ellone actually will show up in Final Fantasy VIII but in a slightly different role.
Tupac's up to something else, I'll try to cover him in some fashion soon if I remember.
TTL Squall is a bit of a hybrid between OTL Squall and OTL Fei Fong Wong, so he will have a slightly different character than he did in the original game.
It won't be a gaiden game, it'll be a proper Final Fantasy.
They'll have a game released in 1999, at least one. Spyro, however, is butterflied away.
A little off-topic but videogame related. Overwatch looks awesome. What is everyone's opinion on it?
TTL's FF8 sounds really cool, at the very least a bit more coherent than OTL's. (At least from what I remember from the last time I watched Spoony's review of it 
).
Speaking of Spoony's FF8 review, since no-one else asked: is the similar-to-but-legally-distinct-from "Magic the Gathering" card game (Triple Triad?) still in FF8?
Does Tim Curry do the voice of the evil clown in Big Top?
Having a hard time picturing Joan Cusack in Deep Impact, but could be interesting. Could just be because I'm a Tea Leoni fan, so what's she up to instead?
Addams Family Reunion was released in 1998, is it least good ITTL? Does the subsequent New Addams Family tv series do better? (I don't think I even knew it was on IOTL until way after the fact.)

Well, if it includes elements from our Xenogears, I'd expect the plot to be one that makes perfect sense on your second playthrough, but not before. Much like Chrono Cross.
How is the legalization of cannabis progressing ITTL? Notably several states legalized medicinal use around this time IOTL. I'm curious to know if it is on scheldule or ahead or behind OTL. I don't know your opinions on the plant, Ry and Nivek, but cannabis users and the videogame culture have had quite a history together. I don't think this TL will be any different in that regard.
I just want to know when you're going to answer my two messages, Ry. It'd be nice to hear your thoughts on them.
And, presumably, Skylanders with him (and probably also Disney Infinity and the amiibo-equivalent for the Wii U-equivalent).
we're in 1998 yet, NFC toys would have a lot to come(and to author note, this tl was conceptualized before those were created) before even put and step here. So yeah, when come of sony otl mascot, the dragon got mauled by the butterflies, those things tend to happen.
Will System Shock 2 be affected? I presume that it'd have improved graphics if nothing else. SHODAN should still get the respect she deserves. Not to mention the cancelled System Shock 3.
