I was too young to see the controls for either Space Ace or Dragon's Lair in arcades but I loved watching them on that second monitor on top. I played the heck out of them both on the 3DO when I got one on clearance years later - I was hooked on FMV games by that point and truly believe they could be amazing with todays tech.
Space Ace was more my style by the time I got to play it too - I was into Sci-Fi and cartoons and gaming and here was a game that combined all three? Limited? Sure. In the right moment it was a great game and made for some great memories.
