it was a good show. They pretty much interviewed the majority of those involved, except of course Gorbachev and Maxwell. But the guys from Nintendo and Atari kept taking pot shots at each other, as did their lawyers. But it was good to see Atari own up to their mistakes and Nintendo to show some respect toward Atari.

The show also mentioned a technology / software authority in Russia that tried to regulate all software produced in order to make money for itself. They tried to stop the publishing and distro deal between the makers of Tetris and Nintendo but failed at the last minute due to some quick thinking on Nintendo's part. They basically flew over their president to sign the deal in Russia, and that was pretty much it.
