My C.A.V.E 33 is a very simple retro blog which aims to show British news, reviews, advertising, articles and other material relating to the computer, arcade and video games of my era along with their systems, which started 33 years ago back in 1982. History will literally catch up with us so prepare for some old tech nostalgia to warm the hearts of all you fellow retro geeks, nerds and dorks out there. Hopefully :)

ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful slice of 1986 Japanese computing history, and the range of machines on show is striking, from the IBM JX and Toshiba Pac-One to the Sanyo MBC-500 and the Fujitsu FM77 and FM16. The advertising artwork alone tells a story about how each company tried to make its system look friendly and futuristic at the same time. I also love how the FM77 AV material leans into colour and sound, which must have been a big selling point for games and home use back then. Seeing these scans together really shows how crowded and inventive the Japanese market was compared with the UK scene. For a lighter modern break between retro reads, I have been enjoying https://kickthebuddyapk.app/, and it pairs oddly well with this kind of nostalgia.
