For example, when collecting for Sega Genesis start out with The Revenge of Shinobi, Altered Beast, Super Monaco GP and Sonic the Hedgehog. For Atari 2600 you should always begin your library with Yars’ Revenge, Berzerk, Super Breakout and Combat.
Filmed in the studio and outside, Mark photographed videogame consoles in environments where we don’t normally see them so that we may appreciate their styling and industrial design. “Most people don’t travel to the beach with a Sega 32X, but I do”.
