Author Steven L. Kent confirmed it himself with an excellent interview with the good folks at Arcade Attack! Would you ever be tempted to release a more up to date version of it? In the works. (ooooooh exciting! – Ed) You can find the full interview here: http://www.arcadeattack.co.uk/steven-l-kent-interview/
Not really. His first book was full of inaccuracies. Others have had a difficult time bringing these types of generic video game history books to market lately. Publishers tend to favor ones that concentrate on Nintendo systems alone.
I would disagree. I thought the book was very accurate. Looks like he just signed a deal with Random House.
