Nice feature guys but am a bit surprised the Master System and NES didn’t really feature …. remember the Master System Game Cards … I thought they must have been created from witchcraft, lol. Wonderboy was defo my fave Cartridge game of the time. BTW … what about the mighty Yak … Jeff Minter is still the god of pure video gaming and his Vic20/C64 games such as Gridrunner, The Matrix, Laserzone and Metagalactic Camels at the Edge of Time were groundbreaking just as Space Giraffe is today. Anyways, keep up the great work guys (Long time listener, first time poster, lol)
