On this day in 1985, one of the weirdest Atari 2600 gems was released. Entitled "Norboplotz!", it was a quirky chase game where you played as a goblin attempting to yell the titular word into people's windows. One of the first 64k 2600 games, the bulk of the memory was dedicated to the "Norboplotz!" soundbite that the goblin could yell when you pressed the button. The gameplay and graphics were wonky, and most of the sound effects could easily be mistaken for farts, but "Norboplotz!" remains a cult classic of retro gaming. An arcade version was also released.
