The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade has become a very long-standing tradition in New York each year. Of course with a long-standing history comes a very interesting history, and I wanted to specifically take a look at the video game characters who have been featured in the parade over the years. Turns out there is more to this history than what there might seem. From forgotten characters, to false world records, to the iconic balloons, I want to talk about it all! Happy Thanksgiving everyone (and if you're not American...uhh.......happy November 23rd!!)
