Many AES manuals have a bonus page or two at the back. Sometimes hinting at a hidden character or final boss, it’s often paired with artwork that I had never seen online before. Here’s some favourites. These are poor photos, I know. You can find great scans of these manuals on the Internet Archive.
And yeah, that’s all I got to say for now! The irony is I’m moving from Canada to Britain next month and I’ve had to make a lot of hard choices about the future of my game collection. Six months ago I had six arcade cabinets and thought I’d be staying in Ontario. Now I have no arcade cabinets. Funny how things work out. I’m glad this all exists as a sort of public journal I can reflect upon. I’m keeping most of my Neo carts and even considering shipping my collection and playing them on a flatscreen via a scaler like the OSSC. We’ll see.
