Interview with Robert Mruczek - February 23, 2019

This interview was prompted by the discovery of an old MTV interview with Mruczek, wherein he shows off Billy Mitchell's newly accepted Donkey Kong submission of 1.047M. Of course, the tape Robert shows is covered in what we recognize today as signatures of MAME. Billy's only remaining defense has been to accuse rival Dwayne Richard of altering his real tapes, citing email threats and hearsay dating back to 2009. Silly as those accusations were, they are now fully debunked by this discovery. You can read the full breakdown here: https://www.twingalaxies.com/ersatzca...
