The small tape that was supposed to become the next big thing.
Here's a video about the forgotten history of the format and a demonstration of a rare Sony Video 8 machine called the Walkman Compo.

FAQs
Q) What's that thing at the beginning displaying the Eye of Sauron?
A) This:    • What in the world is the Gakken WORLD...  

Q) Hey you "forgot" to mention (Insert thing I didn't forget here).
A) Nope this is just a video about the things in the video. Anything not in the video is not there because it wasn't part of this video. e.g. Digital8 and 8mm data backup tapes are not in the video on purpose.
