"While many games at the time were quite basic and amateur"

Surely this is a matter of Opinon..There were other games around of equal quality and gameplay. For Example Lunar Jetman, Atic Atac 82.36.215.64 (talk) 07:31, 22 August 2008 (UTC) E Evans 82.36.215.64 (talk) 07:31, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the POV tag. It says "many games", not "all games", so that's no contradiction to the existence of other quality games. I agree that the formulation is rather vague, if you can come up with something better, replace it, but there's no point in tagging the whole article for an insignificant passage.—Graf Bobby (talk) 04:55, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
