MGLXLVI - Game 8 ~ Bagman (closes 17-Jan)

[OOO]

Bagman pops up everywhere. What a likeable fellow ...



It was all happening in 1983, and it's no different in 2021!

June 1983 was probably one of the greatest times for video gaming. Arcades were still around - look at some of the game titles in this TOC and then Dragon's Lair comes out...
In my lifetime, I was 11 years old going on 12 in July of 1983. I had a Pong variant, then a 2600 and just got a Colecovision which was cutting edge the closest thing to playing a real arcade game at home. The change from the Atari 2600 to the ColecoVision Donkey Kong was a significant jump in graphics, playability and sound.
Then I would depart consoles to get into the Commodore 64 not returning to a console until the Sega Master System - then I left Commodore 64 for an Amiga 2000. My friends all had NES.

All I can say is that you were a lucky 11 year old. That's a great number of games and platforms at your finger tips.

Also posting that page yesterday shows you the high number and good quality of arcade games released around that time. Xevious, Star Trek, Bagman, BnJ and Quantum were in that issue to be released to the market.

Good times then, and now ...
