    1993 Nintendo VHS - With Craig Charles

    I hope this hasn't been posted before. I've been watching a lot of Red Dwarf lately, which turned into a lot of random Craig Charles stuff.

    This is just awesome. I like the segment about the Nigel Mansel WCR game development.

    Super mega early 90s appeal!

    I loved the game reviews by random guys. It's one thing to read from a script, it's another to have the inability to inject any emotion into your speech. Good times.

    Craig Charles took over from Dominic Diamond for a season (or two?) of Gamesmaster and he did a shockingly bad job of it.

    I could see that. He's not perfect, for sure. Maybe even crappy. But he IS awesome.

    Never knew that either

    Wonder if we can get someone like BRAVO in the UK to do a re-run, would be fun to watch and see the young kids of today say, what`s that rubbish ;-)

    ....Full on Mario collector....

    GamesMaster was awesome until they got Dexter Fletcher to do it!

    I always wanted a 'Golden' Joystick! :love:

    More than likely! I am certain it came in a case with a plaque at the bottom though which made it that little bit more authentic. :lol:

    I have a 115MB avi of this I could upload somewhere if there's any interest. It's probably not that much better than Youtube quality, though I can't remember off hand. Still a VHS rip obviously.

    I believe he was convicted of rape though.

    EDIT: appears he was locked up but was acquitted in trial.

    i got this vhs when i got my mario allstars boxset snes from dixons? (or some other high street electronics shop) back in the day. i can't remember if it was a pack in addition or just an extra, it was the yellow boxset without mario world on the cart. (seem to remember a sticker on the snes box saying that it was inside though, or part of the set).

    sold it with my snes though, to get banjo kazooie.
