Correspondence Special #7: Zelda snubs, lost gaming communities, and fake monkey languages.

Om avsnittet

In this special correspondence edition, Simon reads out your letters and answers your questions.

Why has The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time never made it onto a Perfect Console? Where have in-person gaming communities gone, and can they be revived? What happened to educational games after the days of Oregon Trail and Carmen Sandiego?

Which made-up game languages are the most memorable? And where exactly is the line between a video game and… not a video game? All this and much more.
