With all kinds of warnings The warnings are innocuous; they just mean that the security certificate was self-signed, which would be alarming if you are visiting some random, unknown, anonymous site on the Web. However, I also get 404 at the end of all the warnings. dZ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdoerty Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Folks, I get that the website can't be found as well -- and it is several days after the situation was originally reported. Any insights would be apprecaited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First Spear Posted February 27, 2023 Author Share Posted February 27, 2023 The initial link was very broken, some kind of wild DNS/CDN issue. It should be fixed now, please take a look. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zendocon Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I love seeing these old commercials. This is a new one to me. I didn't recognize that overlay image though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 It’s hard to convey how amazing Star Strike looked in a home console to an 11 year-old child back in 1981. To me it was just like Star Wars, and it look “realistic.” dZ. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
