Star Wars: The Arcade Game commercial 1984

Can't imagine why the video game industry was doing poorly in 1984.

Oh my gosh! This old man is so sincere in his attempt to make a youtube video about retro gaming. The quality looks like it was shot on a flip phone, but it's a genuine attempt.

I feel like this video is kinda refreshing in an odd sense. For better or worse, retro gaming has blown up on youtube with countless high-quality videos mass-produced with relatively good production values. Don't get me wrong; I love that these channels exist. You can tell that the constant release schedules has worn on some of these larger content creators. I know from experience that faking enthusiasm every day can be emotionally tiring. This old man, on the other hand, comes across as a genuine enthusiast of atari 7800. He didn't encourage me to smash that subscribe button; he just talked about a few atari 7800 games. I didn't doubt his genuine love for these games.

Wholesome

I agree. This is the type of gaming content I live for.

I'm sure many of you have or had this in your Youtube suggestions, but for those of you who don't:
Sega's official 60th anniversary "Sega Test" study guide: Get to know SEGA better this winter. This is training for an online contest in January I think?

I found this fascinating! It discusses the 10 years of Sega's console releases between the SG-1000 in 1988 and Sega Dreamcast in 1998, and in particular the planet codenames.
