We’ve had a small change of plans due to things outside of our control. Rather than speed and tensions, this month we are looking at video game history a little with the Famicom Disk System. We looked at Castlevania, Kid-Icarus, The Legend of Zelda, Yume Kojo Doki Doki Panic and Murasame-jou. Because we are looking at game history, we brought on someone a little more familiar with that side of gaming to join us, Michelle from Doors and Dungeons.
