I have known Gary (Big G from SA) since I first started on YouTube 15 years ago. He is a like-minded retro collector who also has a passion for the original Spectravideo computers.
Let's have a look at what he sent me.

In this episode, we look at Ikari Warriors by SNK.

I am most excited to share this video with you, as my regular viewers may have worked out that I have been arcade-obsessed (especially of late). Repairing cabs is my relaxing downtime, & it is the #arcade games that inspired a lot of my own creations.
