Michael Jackson Sega Footage Found - This Week In Retro 104

For the last (proper) episode of 2022 we have a special guest joining us to talk about some old photos depicting arcades of the past, how some people have been collecting computers before it was the thing it is now and about the recently found (high quality) footage of Michael Jackson for the SEGA game Scramble Training.

All this and the reveal of the three wrapped retro gifts.
