Oh yeah. First came the interesting Pac Man cartoon from Hanna-Barbera. Then the next year came Saturday Supercade from Ruby-Spears. It was a cartoon/video game utopia back then.

Hey, check this out, Ilikemuppets. I found an old Q-bert episode. Sure brings back wonderful memories.

That's so cool and thank you! It really does bring back memories and seeing the character and seeing that pyramid really brings back memories of the video game, too!

Your welcome. It seems like of all the Supercade shows, Q-bert was the one that came closest to the video game.

I should say! I mean Pac-Man sitting at home and reading the news paper, heh!
