Just saw this book advertised via Nostalgia Nerd's latest video, only £12.49 so snapped it up - comes out on 1st Nov :)

Remember what a wild frontier the early days of home gaming were? Manufacturers releasing new consoles at a breakneck pace; developers creating games that kept us up all night, then going bankrupt the next day; and what self-respecting kid didn't beg their parents for an Atari or a Nintendo? This explosion of computers, consoles, and games was genuinely unlike anything the tech world has seen before or since.

This thoroughly researched and geeky trip down memory lane pulls together the most entertaining stories from this dynamic era, and brings you the classic tech that should never be forgotten.

Haha it was meant to be :p It was my friends first computer when growing up so got to dabble with it a bit as I had a C64 at the time (if my timeline memory is accurate).
