Classic Game Room
Mark said that there was little standardisation on how the cartridges were designed. He showed us the standard cartridges made by Atari, such as Outlaw, BASIC Programming, Brain Games and Combat. He shows us some Parker Brothers games like G.I. Joe: Cobra Strike and Q*Bert. He showed us Cosmic Ark, Atlantis, Demon Attack and Dragonfire from Imagic. He says the Coleco cartridge for Zaxxon and Donkey Kong was interesting because the ColecoVision was out. He said his least favourite cartridge designs were the ones for games like Air Raiders, Super Challenge Football and Burgertime. He then showed us the Tapper cartridge. He said his favourite cartridge design was Activision's, for games such as Starmaster, River Raid, Boxing, Stampede and Robot Tank. He likes Apollo's Cartridges who made Space Cavern and Shark Attack. He then shows us US Games Towering Inferno cartridge. He then shows us a full colour silver label Mario Bros. and Tunnel Runner by CBS Electronics along with Skateboardin'.
