*grumble* Thanks for sharing that link, although I was incredibly irritated by the tone of the piece. They'd have you believe Nintendo was just sitting around doing nothing until Miyamoto showed up and that he somehow single-handedly ressurected the US game industry. And discussing Game Boy without mentioning its predecessors or its goddamn INVENTOR is criminal. In its defense, I had never heard of those British guys before. But did their contributions really make that great a difference in the ENTIRE industry? Given the amount of time they got in the special, you'd think they actually invented something radically new or innovative. Why talk about those guys for 15 minutes when you don't even offer one bit of info on Pac-Man, a game with far greater impact? I have to wonder what the title of this program actually was. The focus was so meandering I can't believe they actually called it "History of Video Games."

That was pretty informative despite the fact that it didn't include everything. I'm glad I watched and/or listened to it.
