A short comic by Bill Plimpton! It reads as the kind of story that someone who is primarily known as an animator might come up with.

I’d really love to get my hands on a copy of the Winners’ Book of Video Games. It comes across as a something that would get dated almost immediately if it was released in the nineties, but in those pre-Wikipedia days, the “print is king” mentality made this kind of thing a certain hit.
