Written and photographed by Mark Bussler, producer of Classic Game Room, the longest running Internet video game review show. Mark has collected more than 100 game systems and thousands of games since he started playing Atari 2600 in 1980.
Contained within these pages is a fun, stylish look at game systems that aren't normally covered like the Famicom Disk System, Magnavox Odyssey 2 and Neo-Geo CD. Mark suggests recommended games to collect for each game console that deliver the best bang for the buck. For example, when collecting for Sega Genesis start out with The Revenge of Shinobi, Altered Beast, Super Monaco GP and Sonic the Hedgehog. For Atari 2600 you should always begin your library with Yars' Revenge, Berzerk, Super Breakout and Combat.
Filmed in the studio and outside, Mark photographed videogame consoles in environments where we don't normally see them so that we may appreciate their styling and industrial design. "Most people don't travel to the beach with a Sega 32X, but I do".
If you love video games and wood grain, you'll love the Ultra Massive series and may find yourself inspired to begin collecting for something new! In addition to playing Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One you may find yourself immersed in the world of Intellivision and Vectrex.
