Golden Girl Goes Pixel: Betty in Retro Games

Before high-res graphics and online lobbies, gaming was pixelated and personal — just like Betty White’s early TV roles. This post looks at how Betty’s retro vibe matches the 8-bit gaming era. We imagine her in side-scrollers like Mario or starring in a Golden Girls RPG. She’d hand out sarcastic wisdom like coins. There’s something timeless about both classic games and classic comedy. And if someone ever made a “Betty’s Bakery Brawl” NES cartridge, we’d play it in a heartbeat. This is a nostalgic tribute to two worlds that defined generations — and still inspire joy.
