The Beige Years
3 subscribers
Documentaries about the hardware and games of 1982 to 1999, argued from the sources, one machine at a time. Cyrix, Commodore, US Robotics, Mortal Kombat: the companies and cabinets that won for a while and what actually happened to them, with the numbers checked and the sources listed under every video. Every claim in a Beige Years video traces to a document, a period magazine, a court record, or the people who were there, and where the record disagrees, the video says so instead of picking a number. No invented details, no "you won't believe."
