How did the largest price drop in Spanish software in the 80s, setting those iconic 875 pesetas per video game, come about, and how did such a move influence the market? Did you know that Paco Menéndez, the creator of the legendary Abadía del Crimen, designed a supercomputer that could have revolutionized the industry? What was La Prisión, an online game with a nearly 20-year lifespan, like? Would you like to uncover the story behind the Easter egg hidden in an Atari game, which inspired the novel Ready Player One? Are you familiar with the tale of PROEIN, the distributor that began in the 70s importing glasses, cigars, and electronic games, ultimately releasing Commandos, one of the greatest successes in Spanish video game history? And what about the intricacies of Investrónica, which went from designing clothing manufacturing machines to mass importing the ZX Spectrum in Spain, and later, in 1985, unveiling Sinclair's first computer with 128 Kb of RAM?
All these stories are part of "MEMORIAS PIXELADAS," a collection of articles delving into the early days of video games and technology in the 80s and 90s, originally published in esteemed outlets like Retro Gamer and 3DJuegos.
