  Gotta look through this later and see if there’s a low review for Zelda where the reviewer is straight up confused about where to actually go in the game.

    The book that comes with the cartridge has a map that shows where the first dungeon is. Or at least the version I had as a kid did.

  Here is a link directly to the archive on Video Game History Foundation’s website! I support their work and look forward to getting a new vintage magazine (bagged and boarded!) every month.

  Is that what gamesmen read back then?

    they weren’t gamesmen yet since videogames were still fairly young.

    they were called gamesteens at the time.
