Summer’s here! Time for the beach and vacation… or staying home and playing games! Either way is good, and while it’s always fun to loaf around at home and play, vacation is a welcome opportunity to get out and see the world. How else can one find new game shops and flea markets and buy more games? This month’s Roundtable has a few classic titles our readers might want to track down, as they’re more available than ever and for a great price!

Teddy Boy Blues
Teddy Boy has been in arcades and on the Master System, but most gamers don’t know that he appeared on the Genesis as well. As one of the few TeleNet modem games released only in Japan, Teddy Boy Blues was a decent translation of the game. Those looking for another arcade maze title might want to check it out.
