Back to the 80's for Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands and More from the C64!

This week we take a trip down memory lane as Jay and Eddie take a look at Bubble Bobble (34) and Rainbow Islands (66), two arcade classics ported to home consoles in the 80's!

What's more, Jay fills in the second half of the show with talk of obscure Commodore 64 games from his childhood, including a plethora of British Kids TV themed titles, a trip back to school and the heroic adventures of an Egg wearing boxing gloves.

That's Dizzy by the way. Strangely enough it's never actually mentioned in the episode that he was an Egg wearing boxing gloves... but he was, so there!

Enjoy!

Coming from a writing background, having spent over a decade running WWEBlog, Jay decided it was time to go in a different direction. That direction was gaming and thus the Bucket List Gamers (and Bucket List Board Gamers) were born!
