Apparently it was made in '77 which fits with not remembering it coming as I was 2 or 3 then. It was won in a raffle (or something similar) by my Aunt, who didn't have a TV never mind play games, she must have given it to my parents.

I still enjoy discovering classics I never got to play when they were new or current.</blockquote>
