2kB of Fun: my book on Handheld games

[Blanka]

Hi arcade fans and handheld lovers,

Last 2 years I have been working on my book "2kB of Fun". A massive book on our beloved handhelds. Later this week I will let you know when it is going to be released and how to get it, but for now, please support me by liking my Facebook page about the book:

Now that looks like a professional and tight design !

Definitely a lot better than what we've seen from some other books about videogames etc.

Still....don't judge the book by.....

Woow, I was waiting for that one! Can't wait to read it

I tried to let the cover be a good idea of the inside. Clean design, lots of original research, nice cutaway drawings, great photos....

Here's a small video from an early sample print:

This looks really nice

Indeed, GREAT pictures !! Very professional and I really like the lay-out. Also looks like you went "deep" into the technology behind it. Very nice !

The material for the book will also be used in my 2 presentations at Eurocade (saturday and sunday).

I had the chance to see a little preview some weeks ago, really impressive!!

We will also have some of the handhelds mentioned in the book on display during the Retro Game Experience.

Here some thumbs:

Remember any?

There are some oddities: to show the context, you also see a Speccie, a Videopac G7200 and a Casio calculator. The first kind of killed the handheld in the UK, the second is a nice crossover between table top game and console, the third is the calculator that inspired Gunpei Yokoi.

I look forward to your presentation @ eurocade

I had some handhelds BITD, but I think I gave them away or something

[Laszo]

Yeah, looks great..... Bring enough copy's to Eurocade.
