Yo Bro

[♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇]

So I have a bunch of classic video games, uh , "acquired" on my Raspberry pi, and am playing a game called Yo Bro for the Turbo Grafix 16. So why am I posting about it? Cause every level in the game has a beach boys song for the level music,  and I see no copyright notice....

Are you kidding me? He probably was behind the idea!

Edit: Here's the sequel. Judging by the music, the lawyers did indeed get to them:

Played a little of it last night...so far both I get Around and California Girls are in there. Yikes. That ranks up(down?) there with the NES game Super Dodge Ball using part of A Hard Day's Night as the stage music when you play England.

I had a TG16 and a friend did too and had a copy of "Yo Bro." I believe the Beach boys music in it was properly licensed because it was advertised on the box (main character is wearing a BBs t shirt in the box art).

There was another licensed game during this era, "Camp California".

Thanks for the info. Having not seen the box, it was as jarring to me as hearing Good Vibrations in that horrible Vanilla Sky movie!
