Welcome to Video Works, a weekly video retrospective survey of post-Atari-crash console and portable game history. Currently, my primary focus is NES Works, a chronological survey of the American NES library, a Segaiden, a companion piece that focuses on Sega consoles beginning with the SG-1000. Each video takes us through the history a different gaming platform by examining its library game-by-game, in chronological order, highlighting the design and creation of each game while also explaining the context of its release to help convey what made that game special (or, sometimes, not special).

If you'd like to support these ventures, though, you can contribute to the Video Works Patreon campaign (http://www.patreon.com/gamespite). Or you can buy related books at Fangamer.net and LimitedRunGames.com. Thanks for watching!
