    Default Classic Home Video Games UPDATE

    The manuscript for my next book, which will cover the Genesis, TurboGrafx-16and Neo Geo, is due at the publisher by the end of the year. This means that it will be published in the Summer of 2011 (or shortly thereafter).

    If you haven't picked up a copy of my latest book, Classic Home Video Games 1985-1988, which covers the NES, Master System, and Atari 7800, here's what you're missing:

    *Durable hardcover binding
    *Descriptions/Reviews for EVERY game for the Atari 7800, NES, and Sega Master System.
    *Detailed gameplay information
    *Developer/publisher info
    *Historical data
    *Console Biographies
    *Genre definitions
    *Video game term definitions
    *Comparisons to arcade classics
    *Photos
    *Author preface
    *Foreward by the legendary Bill Kunkel
    *Editorial content based on the author's 35 years experience playing video games
    *277 pages
    *A book you will refer to again and again
    *Fun and informative
    *Perfect for taking to conventions and retro game stores, and for having on hand while shopping for games online

    What they are saying about Classic Home Video Games, 1985-1988:

    *"This is a great book...information is spot-on...100% accurate...a must-own"--Video Game Trader

    *"A great tome of reference...excellent...a must-own for any avid 8-bit collector"--Retro Gamer

    *"Valuable...great...succeeds with flying colors...vivid commentary and descriptions...will save you time, money and frustration"--Nintendo Age

    Does the DP store carry it? If they do, I might pick it up there.

    Unfortunately, no. Amazon is the best place to get it. Or, you can order it direct from me (send me a PM for details if interested). Thanks...

    When you click on that link (which I just tried and it worked), it should take you to a page that says McFarland at the top. Below that there are several links to pages.
