Show Notes

Clocking in at almost 3 hours, this episode is a remastered super-cut of Into The Vertical Blank Season 3, Episode #1, #4 and #6 (2020) that cover April 3, 1982: Atari Pac-Man Day and it's lasting effects on the company. Yep, this one is all about Atari VCS Pac-Man, but so much more as well. It features a discussion with the late Curt Vendel, in one of his final interviews, speaking very very passionately about what we all believed to be "Atari's Biggest Mistake".

All music, video production. writing and game play by Jeff Fulton with help from  Steve Fulton unless otherwise noted.
Music by Tony Longworth

Rest In Peace Mr. Vendel, we miss you very much
