Does anyone remember the old video game gameshow Starcade?

I believe this video game gameshow predated PC gaming, but was around during the early home console games (e.g. atari 2600). It had kids (and sometimes adults) compete by playing various arcade videogames (donkey kong was one) on a timed basis, answering questions about various arcade videogames and identifying the names of various arcade videogames. It had various cheezy prizes (miniaturized pacman was one) and the grand prize was usually a brand-new arcade videogame. I don't ever remember it back in the days when it actually aired (early 1980's). Geoff Edwards hosted the show for most of its run.
