Nintendo Manually Updated 17,000 Killer Instinct Arcade Cabinets To Combat Exploits In 1994
Did You Know Gaming's latest episode takes a look at Rare's Killer Instinct.

You will also learn about the exploits referenced in the headline that forced Nintendo to travel cabinet to cabinet to issue an update.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk.
