In Sharka's QuickBytes, I'll be taking a bite-sized (byte-sized?) look at retro games, usually several per video when I'm covering a particular series or theme. There'll be more editing and shorter and more scripted commentary in QuickBytes than in the laid-back Nostalgic Nibbles series, and most vids won't be longer than ten minutes - perfect for a quick blast of Sharka-themed retro goodness.

In this episode, we'll be going down under to the Australian Saturday morning gaming tv scene of the mid-'90s, where surfer dudes review games and arcade controllers are praised for how ugly they are!

Dedicated to my partner, supportive in all the things I do and taking a retro journey alongside me, one I'm very happy to be able to share with her.
