The Gaming Historian is a documentary series all about the history of video games. The show is researched, written, edited, and created by Norman Caruso.

I recently announced I'm no longer working on the channel full-time (check the community tab for my announcement). I'll still be making videos in my spare time. Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss a new episode!

Sources for my videos are available on my website, gaminghistorian.com
