I remember in the 80’s there was a saterday morning cartoon that did something like the VHS tape thing too, to sell more toys, you needed to buy speical toys to “play” along with the cartoon, sorry I can not remember the name of the cartoon.
Man the things you could get away with before the internet. I wonder how many people took just a second to sit there and think: “how is a VCR tape going to allow me to play an actual game?”
I’d also love to see the people who at the end of the game were like “Ah I wanna play that again!” They rewind the tape and go “wait a minute, this is playing the exact same as before!”
God, those VHS “games” were such a massive scam.
Action max pops ghostly scared the shit outta me.
Still don’t know how to land on the carrier…

The pain of having an Action Max when everyone else had an NES was unfathomable.
I still have my Action Max, The Rescue of Pops Ghostly, .38 Alley, and Sonic Fury.
If you’re an aging mid-30’s year old that’s never heard of this thing like me… here’s an interesting review of it
