We didn't have too much in the early 90s. I remember watching Video Power and thinking it was pretty cool. Half of it was game coverage (and thinly disguised advertorial content for Acclaim products) and the other half was a cartoon featuring a smattering of Acclaim characters fighting crime against the villains from NARC. It's hilariously B-team. Captain N gets Mega Man and Simon Belmont and Video Power gets...the cop from NARC and the tomato guy from Kwirk?
The second season had a complete format change and became a game show. The final around had the winning team running through a maze in a velcro suit and they'd try to stick game cartridges to them as they ran through it. Fucking kino honestly.
I was also a big fan of Nick Arcade which had some custom games (made by Psygnosis!) and a selection of console and Neo Geo games you could play where your partner would wager points to see if you could beat a score threshold on a game. It's historically interesting I guess because they had an early version of Sonic 2 on there.
