[net.micro] Video Game for "blue@nbs-sdc"

knudsen@ihnss.UUCP (11/14/83)

Yes, the appropriate newsgroup is net.games.video.  I don't know whether you ARPA
types can access it.  It could stand some more activity!!
If you want a serious video game system for little $$, that can also do a few
other fun things (lite pen graphics, music, etc), get a Vectrex!
It is entirely different in appearance and techonology from any home computer,
tho it uses the king of 8-bit micros, the 6809.  You won't believe how
much nicely-built stuff is inside it for $99.  (Don't pay more; shop around).
Be usre to audition Web Wars, Hyperchase, and Spinball games for it.  mike k

Actually what really distinguishes it (most video games players could
care less what micro is inside it) is the fact that it is a vector
display.
