James Pond Collection
He’s resurfaced
Fins, puns and fun—James Pond is back. The 007 of System 3, James Pond was at one point a pretty big name in videogames. He was never Mario or Sonic, but Pond had and has a loyal fanbase that have appreciated the slightly-off-appeal of the odd and oddly fun antics of the marvellous mutant mudskipper. It’s a long way from Pond’s heyday though, and he’s been away a long time; but now he’s back.
Under the ownership of System 3 Software (yes, that System 3 for the home computer crowd) fans will see a James Pond collection make it’s way to Switch 2, PS5, Xbox and PC.
Playing videogames, writing about videogames, considering videogames—that about sums it up. Videogames are the one hobby that I’ve kept since I was only little, zapping ducks on the NES or knocking out MR. X. And when I’m not enjoying classics from the bit generation of games or checking out those earliest of polygons, I’m probably playing something from today’s age of modern gaming: if I’m not complaining about it. Something I’m doing at the moment? Playing through Alundra again, this time on the Polymega.
