Hey everyone, thanks for your patience this week. This episode is about two of Activision's early 1983 titles, Oink and Dolphin. Next on the podcast I will be looking at Lost Luggage and Shark Attack (Lochjaw) by Apollo. If you have any feedback on these or any of the games I've covered, please send it to 2600gamebygame@gmail.com. You can check the calendar on the blogpage for the upcoming shows, I have updated it. A bit. I have some vacation time coming up, and while I don't have an episode listed for those weeks, I am going to try to get something out then. I also have an upcoming project, we are putting in a new floor in my gameroom/podcasting room, but I'm hoping that won't disturb the schedule. Much.
Thanks for listening everyone!

This week I cover two more games in the RealSports line, Tennis
and Basketball. Basketball was an unfinished prototype that saw the
light of day near the turn of the century. I think there is only
one more RealSports title left, Boxing, which oddly came out much
later than the rest. Next time I'll be discussing the Activision
games Oink! and Dolphin, so if you have any thoughts on these games
(or the RealSports games, I expected the feedback to be a bit light
and I was not mistaken), please send it to me at
2600gamebygame@gmail.com. You will not regret it! Thank you so much
for listening, and this Sunday, please say hi to your mother for
me.

This week I'm looking at two of the CBS Electronics Ram Plus games, Tunnel Runner and Omega Race, as well as the Booster Grip controller! Thanks for your patience this week, and thanks again for the donations, it is greatly appreciated. I think I have settled on a mixer so I can record the sounds from the 2600 itself, and also, I think I may be able to use that to play the audio submissions live so you can hear me react to them. My current mixer is a Kitchen Aid, so that one won't work. Next episode will be about Sky Skipper and Tutankham by Parker Brothers, so if you have any feedback on those games or games I've already covered, please send it to 2600gamebygame@comcast.net, or 2600gamebygame@gmail.com. Thank you so much for listening, you guys are the best!!
