To me, 8 bits computers have something that marked deeply many of us forever. This is what a friend of mine, PookyII, tells about it:
I was about thirteen when I came back from the UK and saw the poster announcing Arkanoid (this was nearly 1987). I felt something that compelled me to buy the game, despite I didn’t know whether I was going to like it or not. Coincidentally, by that time, Spectrum games were being distributed by a company which made history: Erbe Software. They cut the prices of the games from 2.500 pts down to only 875 pts. (that’s about nowadays 5 €).
