Originally, Popeye was to be released before Donkey Kong, but Nintendo could not procure the rights to do so. However, they did not give up and was eventually given the blessing, with Shigeru Miyamoto and Genyo Takeda taking the lead for the project. Nintendo gave the world another fun arcade game for all to enjoy and a story worth sharing enjoy!

Sega enters the cute character competition in hopes of getting some attention off of Pac-Man, with a new maze game called Pengo. The game was a commercial success in North America and was the first arcade game to have a fully interactive environment. Just remember if you encounter a Sno-bee in the wild, just chunk some ice at him. Enjoy the show!

Irem enters the arena with Moon Patrol back in 1982 and was the first video game to feature a full parallax scrolling experience. Not only that, but teaming up with Williams for distribution led to one of the most beautiful cabinets released. Moon Patrol is a fun game and has a great story, with a game designer who wasn't a one and done, he was just getting warmed up. Enjoy the episode!
