MADrigal's Simulators - Popeye Wide Screen!!!

[MADrigal]

I am very pleased and excited to write this post!

For the first time since I started "MADrigal's simulators" back in 1999, I was very recently given the opportunity and honour to mentor and help a programmer eager to make his very first handheld game simulator.

His name is Koby Goldberg, and the game in question is Popeye - Nintendo Wide Screen Series!

And for the first time, MADrigal's Simulators hosts a handheld game simulator that was not programmed by myself, but instead it is the result of Koby's talent and efforts, with just a little help from me. And let me tell you, this simulator is really excellent!

Compared to the other simulators on this website, Popeye has a few additional features that make it a not-to-be-missed download:

two skins (one designed by Koby, perfect for large monitors, and one designed by myself, ideal for smaller monitors)
a demo animation identical to that of the original handheld game
the "in-game pause" option.

I would also take this opportunity to introduce a new cool podcast that launches tomorrow. The author, Ryan Claytor, is a university professor in the United States with a passion for gaming history. His podcast will focus on classic handheld games and will release fortnightly starting 1st March, 2021. Podcast is at http://www.GameAndCast.com/ and any podcatching app!
