Tony Hawk Worked On The Turbografx - CosmykTheDolfyn - 06-29-2016
Ok, this one just sounds kind of cool, but I'll include the link to the video interview in this thread. But it was such a nifty little one, I'd figured I'd let everyone read it here before it spends a long time waiting to get published.
Tony Hawk, the pro skateboarder, did video editing on the side at the start of his pro skating career, as he couldn't make a living on skateboarding alone. Some of his video editing work was for a game devolper that made games for the Turbografx-16, or PC engine outside of the US. He mentions the company's name in this video, but I can't make out the name. He also mention the Turbografx by name, saying it was ironic that he went from working on video games to having games made about him.
