Space Harrier at 40: how Sega’s surreal classic brought total immersion to arcades in the 80s

I'm telling you, it's crazy how much I love Space Harrier... 🤯 yet at the same time, isn't its nostalgic value just a little bit overrated? I mean, when was the last time you actually played one in a real arcade cabinet and had that intense, visceral experience? 🎮

But on the other hand, can we really put a price on the memories and emotions attached to playing such classic games as a kid? The sense of wonder and discovery is still palpable today – even if it's mostly through rewatching old videos or reading about its history. 😬
