301: BALLBLAZER for the 7800

301: BALLBLAZER for the 7800 William Pepper 41:16

Do you remember the 1970’s cartoon “Gilligan’s Planet”, where the castaways travel from the island to outer space? No? Well, you should. It was…something.

The 7800 game BALLBLAZER, which we played in episode 301, is a little like that. It’s like transporting a soccer game from the stadium to space. “Ted Lasso” in an astronaut helmet maybe. So, is the game a ball or should all copies be set ablaze? Listen to find out! (To the extent my opinion means anything.)
