 WE AIN'T DEAD YET - THIS IS THE 100 MEGA SHOCK! The finale of our 3-part series on video game communities, we talk white-collar crime in video games and how it trickles down into video game communities via the history of SNK and their ever-popular Neo-Geo! What happens when a titan of the arcade industry is raided by a life-long corporate criminal? How much dirty money is cycling in the video game and pachinko industry? What does SNK's modern-day takeover by the Saudi government mean for the future? We tackle these questions in this brand-new extra-size episode, although you may not like the answers... GAME CRIMES is a history project by Mike Bachmann (Greetings Adventures Podcast, Roll for Streetwise) and June Munford (SHU Podcast, Poor Skeleton Games) detailing the black market history of video games. Each podcast covers a single topic, provides some historical context and reviews a few games related to the topic. On the GAME CRIMES weekly streams, Mike and June answer questions, give how-to demonstrations and play unique games for the first time.
