More than thirty-nine years ago, Nintendo debuted a video game that knocked out its competitors, much like a green turtle shell wiping out a string of Goombas. For every groundbreaking movie, television show, or video game, there are  dozens of concepts that fall by the waste side and are lost in the proverbial black hole that is history. But every so often a game or idea develops that is legendary, iconic… historic. This episode focuses on arguably the most well-known video game protagonist, not named Pac-Man, but one that has grown a franchise of games, and the company itself, unlike any other.

So, grab your coffee, and settle in, because… “I’m a back!” to share another forgotten story in history. It’s season 5 of The Missing Chapter Podcast.
