A strange little side quest
Before the next round of Dora-Hane-kun !!, here is a piece of the bigger picture. Atari's Gran Trak 10 from 1974 is recognized as the first arcade racing video game. It also connects to a different milestone: Reader Rabbit's 1986 arrival was part of a major expansion of educational computer software before the CD-ROM boom of the 1990s. That long chain of experiments is part of why arcade history still feels fresh when a game finds the right twist.
