As Captain Picard returns, we browse the franchise’s Nintendo back catalogue.
Whether you're a final frontier fan or not, you've probably noticed the onslaught of advertising for the latest entry in CBS' ever-growing catalogue of Star Trek series. The impending return of Jean-Luc Picard to television screens this week is a massive media event and seeing the iconic captain once again going boldly in the imaginatively-named Star Trek: Picard will be emotional for fans who have missed his uncompromising integrity and moral fibre.
The media fanfare surrounding the new show is down to the fact that Patrick Stewart's character is up there alongside pointy-eared Mr. Spock as a pop culture icon, instantly recognisable whether you've followed his exploits on the USS Enterprise or only know him as 'facepalm guy'.
