    The Nintendo Entertainment System feat. UKNESBoy

    This has been a long time coming. We finally have a chat about the Nintendo Entertainment System, the console that revived the video gaming industry in the mid-80s and which, to be fair, us at Arcade Attack had little experience of growing up. In these instances a hero is needed, so we called upon unsung AA-hero Andy (aka UKNESBoy) to assist us in these trying times! Read Andy's fantastic NES work on the site here: https://www.arcadeattack.co.uk/retro-consoles/nintendo-entertainment-system/ His Popeye review here: https://www.arcadeattack.co.uk/popeye-nes-review/ Hidden NES gems on the Switch online service here: https://www.arcadeattack.co.uk/underrated-nes-games-nintendo-switch-online/ And drop him a line on whatever Twitter is known as these days: https://twitter.com/uknesboy Fancy discussing this podcast?
