Or at least, I'm a fan of trivia about ancient arcade games. I'm rubbish at actually playing Donkey Kong, which they didn't have in any arcades I knew growing up (well, they did have it in the cafe on Skegness train station for a while, but I never really played it there), but I do know in mind-numbing detail the reason why level 22 is a kill screen...
Or is it? Because the awesome "Kosmic" has just posted a super cool video about how it's at least theoretically possible to beat the first level 22 screen even despite the timer bug only giving you a couple of seconds, which is exactly the kind of fascinating detail I always love to hear!
I really can't get enough of this kind of video. Ultimately, I'm just a huge nerd. But I hope at least some of my readers share my fascination!
