Line 1: {{~~work~~website}} [http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/ Hardcore Gaming 101] is a video game overview site run by Kurt Kalata that is dedicated to cult classics and the obscure. Founded in 2004, it looks at everything from the classics, to Japanese import games, to long-forgotten arcade quarter munchers, to homebrew, to [[So Bad It's Good\|pure]] [[So Bad It's Horrible\|garbage]] and the [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?\|utterly insane]]. The site also takes a look at the output of various companies like [[Compile]], [[Toaplan]], [[Eighting Raizing]], [[Nippon Ichi]] and [[Irem]], and the various [[Licensed Game\|Licensed Games]] of [[Capcom]] and [[Konami]].

It is also one of the few places you'll find someone defending the ''[[The Legend of Zelda CDI Games\|Zelda]]'' [[The Legend of Zelda CDI Games\|CD-i games]]. The site updates roughly every week.
