Credit: Olympics/Twitter The 2020 Olympics have made their official pandemic-delayed start, and the opening ceremony, complete with the torch lighting, took place today. Keen-eared viewers might have noticed a certain kind of music being played during the whole ceremony and the Parade of Nations. That’s right — the Olympics featured video game music as its score for the lengthy opening ceremony, and it fits in perfectly.

We’ve all seen these types of arcade games like Sega’s Key Master. The type of game that is seemingly skill-based and if you’re great at reflexes and hit the button on time then you’ll get rewarded with a prize.
