Ep.73 – Searching for the Elusive Cheetahman

Action 52 (1991)

We look at one of the worst NES cartridges of all time, the Action 52 cartridge, released in 1991. Developed on a short timeline by a group of amateur game developers, the Action 52 cartridge has 52 of the worst games that the NES has to offer. But wait, there's more! The Action 52 cartridge was designed to showcase the Cheetahman, designed to be the next greatest thing since the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. We're going to look back at a number of games on the cartridge, looking at all their flaws and successes, and take some time to talk about the Cheetahman in all its glory. Join us for a far from perfect trip down Memory Card Lane.
