I've never seen a channel with such production quality in my life. From the impecable written text, to the astonishing visual production (which is miles ahead of any channel on YT), to the incredible editing, but above all else the almost academic level of research into the VG industry at a time the Internet wasn't a thing and records were scarce (since the industry was much more niche than it is today). I am abolutely sure this series will one day be played at museums, and every university course will make reference to it. What an amazing and groundbreaking work sir. Congratulations and thank you for gracing us with your work.

Another hardware extension for the Sega Megadrive/Genesis that was placed inside the cartridges rather than an extension for the machine itself, were the J-Carts such as MicroMachines, Pete Sampras Tennis and Super Skidmarks, which added extra controller ports.
