Has anyone else read?

Dug my copy out and looking forward to a re-read, its covers Nintendo upto roughly SNES launch from its days as a playing card manufacturer (via the love hotels snh snh :11: !).

It also covers the first video game boom of the late '70s early '80s, Atari's demise and some other interesting stuff like the release of Tetris.

Cracking read, I like the sub title as well although it does tend to change depending on the edition!

Game Over: How Nintendo Zapped an American Industry, Captured Your Dollars, and Enslaved Your Children

(My edition came free with Arcade magazine in the mid 90's)
