I played more than a few games of Smash Bros Melee on that tiny GameCube screen when I worked at EB Games in the early 2000's. 😅

I had this TV and absolutely loved it!

I feel like Super Mario Bros converted a lot of people from "liking the electronic TV game" to "video games are a lifestyle." I enjoyed the Atari 2600, but the NES is what radicalized me as well!

An indie game called Escape Goat helped me overcome a major hurdle with OCD because I desperately wanted to play it but my 360 was in a room I felt was contaminated. I credit that game with being a major turning point in my life. I'm glad Disco Elysium could help you fight your demon as well!

I dreamt and yearned for Mario 64 to be a social space you could just hang out in and interact with others!

My sister and I never shared a lot of interests as there was a seven year age between us, but I have a lot of fond memories of us playing Pitfall!! together. Neither of us understood it, but it was one of the few things we would do together during the limited time we were both still "kids."

I'm right there with you!

On that note, not a guarantee that I'm launching a twitch channel tonight.

I love me some Nintendo, but they've been a "niche" company for nearly 30 years now, even if they have mega hits like Animal Crossing and Pokemon.

As a side note, Ball is addictive and I now am obsessing over Game and Watch games.
