  I remember a friend of mine buying this, gloating about the 50 new games he bought with his milk round money. &nbsp;Watching his face as he went through the cassette was a study in the 5 stages of grief. So bad, I never even wasted a &quot;Kaytape&quot; C90 on copying it.

  Ha ha, great review.<br><br>I&apos;m here from Alex&apos;s channel. I&apos;ve submitted some games already for his USB 50 recreation of the Cassette 50 project. It&apos;s going to be fun to see what games will be on it when it&apos;s released.

  I do remember the adverts but thankfully never brought one. It&apos;s the equivalent of music tapes that were not played or sung by the original artists. The make Chevron comes to mind.

  I was about 8 years old when I had this and even then I knew it was complete bobbins. &nbsp;I remember mostly having fun with it, but I never ran home from school to load up Cassette 50, not when I had Skool Daze, Nodes of Yesod, Manic Miner and so on. &nbsp;I got more use out of the watch, which I still have somewhere.

  A bit before my time but an interesting watch. &nbsp;I do enjoy the variety in your videos and your humorous &nbsp;comments. &nbsp;Were there any more multi game tapes for older cassette based consoles?

  Hi Steve, thank you for showing us all the games, now that I&apos;ve seen them all I&apos;m glad I didn&apos;t pool any birthday or Christmas money to buy this one! 😄 Thanks for reading my comment out too! 👍🏻😉

  Star Trek is a port of an ancient game that (along with the likes of Dungeon, Hunt the Wumpus, and NetHack) started life on time-sharing systems in the world of academia. No idea what this particular implementation is like, but in general it&apos;s a pretty good game once you get to grips with it.
