Samuel Spade

Samuel Spade was the inventor of the TechEruo System and the designer for the PlayMax 2000 console, worked at TechEruo from 1977-2011.

History
As confirmed on an ABC News interview about his retirement, he started the TechEruo system after playing Super Mario Bros. and watching Pinocchio with his kid back to back, and the fact that the Pinocchio tape was worn out. So he wanted a system that can do both of these things, with each cartridge costing $49.95. That was when he invented the TechEruo System.

Back in TechEruo Con '89, he demonstrated the durability of it, by smashing a "Eruotape" with a softball bat after it was already played, and surprisingly, it still worked even with the damage.
