We have spent some time with Stephen Coupe, who’s been kind enough to answer some questions about his history with the SEGA SC-3000, and his involvement with the early New Zealand software market.

Steve had several programs published in the Sega Computer Magazine [New Zealand] before moving on to publish several titles commercially through Poseidon Software [Tokoroa, New Zealand].

Here's the first question of the interview that Stephen Coupe has issued us:

AW >

Thanks for taking the time to answer some of our questions. Maybe you can start out by telling us a little about yourself and where you currently reside?

SC >

It was 26 years ago at the ripe young age of 13 when I started developing computer games in BASIC. After 3 years of tinkering, I finally dipped my toe into the marketing side of life and started selling games through Poseidon software. Over the years I have remained in the computing field working for the last 10 years with IBM as well as running my own web design business http://www.dizzydesign.co.nz (shameless plug). I am living in Auckland and married with 6 kids (all girls), many who cant be called kids any more as they are all grown up and gone their separate ways. I now use web design as my creative output. It incorporates graphics and coding to keep my brain ticking over
