    British Royal Mail issues computer games stamps writes BoingBoing:

    BoingBoing.net
    Worms, Wipeout, Micromachines & Sensible Soccer

    The article features pictures of these stamps. Those who remember the times will find these adorable. The stamps are apparently available as first or second class stamps, at £1.60 or £1.55, and also in collectors sets.

    Do I know enough people in the UK to send me postcards with stamps from:

    • Elite(1984)
    • Dizzy (1987)
    • Populous (1989)
    • Lemmings (1991)
    • Micro Machines (1991)
    • Sensible Soccer (1992)
    • Wipeout (1995)
    • Worms (1995)
    Lemmings, Popoulus, Dizzy and Elite

    each? Germany, meanwhile, is still debating whether computer games are hazardous and the people involved in the scene should be observed.
