Dudley of Yesterzine | MEGA Issue 1 - Yesterzine 38 - "The Last Really Good One" @Yesterzine | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
30 years ago, the single biggest name in sports gaming was just getting started and so was MEGA, Future Publishing's Mega Drive only magazine. Issue 1 saw a gaming heaven that connected the two and a gaming hell that's the latest in a long line of arcade conversion failures but is that the whole story here?
Elsewhere it may be issue 1 but MEGA thinks there's already a Top 100 games and I take on a celebrity at a video game, despite apparently having something of a reputation.

Bonus Fact for Scrolling : This is actually RIGHT where the EASN / EA Sports namechange happened. While the game and the US box for NHLPA 93 say EASN, the UK box actually has the recognisable modern EA Sports logo on it.
