Captain N: Into the Gameverse

Prologue: The Legend of the Game Master

There are many universes beyond our comprehension. There is our universe. A world that we can perceive as real because we know it like the back of our hand (at least we still think we know it like that). But have you ever considered what would happen if the meteor that killed the dinosaurs… didn't kill the dinosaurs? Like the meteor hits the earth but the dinosaurs managed to survive? Or what if the Allies lost WW2? Or what if we stumble upon a completely clean energy source from, say some other planet or perhaps in our moon?

These endless possibilities create what is called multiverse theory, the belief that there are multiple universes.

So what if I were to tell you that when mankind created video games that it created a universe? Not just some set of stories behind a screen, but an actual universe. It sounds far fetched? Well I can't put it past you if that's how you think of it. People are entitled to believe what they want to believe. Oh? You think it may have actually happened? You wish to jump down the rabbit hole?

Are you sure about this? You do know that if you do this you can't turn back. But you insist? Very well then… let's jump down the rabbit hole.

This universe I speak of is a giant cluster of video game worlds mixed together to become what is called the Gameverse. In it is every video game character you wish you could meet.

Mario. Sonic. Everyone you know of, every hero and/or villain you can think of at the top of your head is in the Gameverse.

A world where even dreams could come true.

It was ruled over by a royal family that had great amounts of power. And this power comes from the very heart of the Gameverse, Kokoro that resides in VideoWorld.

But there lies a very powerful artifact in the Gameverse.

The Glove of Power, a sentient glove with powers far beyond what anyone would imagine. An old legend states that if the Gameverse were to be threatened by a great evil, the Glove would summon a champion from another world to protect the Gameverse.

And this champion has a name.

Captain N, the Game Master.


A/N and so we begin a new project.

What is Captain N?

Well, it used to be a TV in 1989 when the NES was still out. Basically, a human from our world gets sucked into a world filled with video game characters you'd know in 1989 if you were born in that time and had one. It had some... interesting design choices. Nonetheless, my inspiration came from a YouTube video about a considerable remake (but due to the constraints of FanFiction, I cant put the link in here so you'll just have to go to YouTube and you'll find what you're looking for after a quick search).

With that, I bid you adieu. Don't change the dial and leave your thoughts here.
