I'm not giving up on the 11,070 Days of 3DO just yet! Battle Chess is a game that has been ported to almost every platform, so it's no surprise that it made its way to 3DO. Plus, where else can you witness a wiggly bum queen taking down a knight?

My first video console my an #Atari 2600 which I still own, & have the original box and manuals!
I was only a kid when this console came out but it shaped my imagination like never before. Adventure was close to the first Role Playing #Game of our time!
I loved it!
ALT A meme that displays the imagination we used to play 8 bit video consoles, a lot different to the game titles of today!

30 years ago, Panini released its Sega Super Play 120-card set. It featured Sega games and characters, and was written by yours truly. I had to come up with interesting info and trivia for each card, which was challenging but fun. More details here:
