During Clinton’s presidency, Socks became an unlikely pop-culture phenomenon through frequent appearances in White House photographs and media coverage. Capitalizing on his fame, a 1993 Super Nintendo game titled Socks the Cat Rocks the Hill was released, in which Socks discovers a stolen nuclear launch device and races to warn the president to prevent a nuclear attack. Despite the unusual premise, the game was soon canceled.
