GamePlayers' Castlevania II Strategy Tape

About eight or nine years back I had the incredible stroke of luck as I rifled through some bargain bin videotapes in a clearance section of Best Buy and come across some video game strategy guide tapes from the makers of the no longer existing GamePlayers' Magazine.
