The original arcade version of Star Wars was so popular that it was ported not once by twice to the Commodore 64. On this episode of Sprite Castle I played both the Parker Bros. (1983) and Domark (released by Broderbund in 1988) ports to the C64. Discover which company did a better job of converting a vector-based game to home CRT monitors!
Sprite Castle is an audio podcast but in 2013 experimented with this video format which ran for 31 episodes. I've learned a lot about streaming and making videos since then, but I thought I would upload these for archival purposes.

One of the greatest ninja-based arcade games of all time made its way to home compters in the late 1980s, including the Commodore 64. Check out this sorta-kinda decent version of Shinobi and see if I still have the ninja magic!
