I miss the mall arcades too. There's a Dave & Busters in mall near me, but it's not quite the same thing. They don't have the games I want to play either.

Nice! I know I must've seen that cabinet in the Mall arcades. They had so many games there. I guess I played Donkey Kong ('81), then Donkey Kong Jr. ('82) and then missed out on Mario Bros. ('83). Maybe since that was the year I got my driver's liscense, I stopped playing kid's games and grew up. Ha ha ha ha! Seriously, I crack me up sometimes.

Yea, I was a sports nut, playing a lot of Baseball and Tennis. Somehow I found the time to bike down to the arcades in the Mall and play Wizardry on Sundays however. 

The C64 was apparently a very cool PC to have. I guess if I had been interested in computers in school back then, I might have encountered one, but I wasn't, and so I've never used one.

Ha! Neat. I didn't notice the rhyming 'til you mentioned it. Luigi is such a wuss.

That's neat. I was off to college when the NES came out. For some reason, no one at school had one and I didn't even know it existed until '95 or so when I started getting back into gaming.

Neat! I want to hear which ones are good.

I was 10 when Star Wars and the Atari 2600 came out. The perfect age to get hooked on games and scifi. I'd say I'm more into it now than I was back then. Strange, isn't it?

Ha ha! I figured I'd get some "not born yet" or "too young to game" responses. It's cool. Lots of people collect stuff from before they were gaming although I'm not sure I care for collecting Odyssey II games. That's going a little too old school even for me.

I was probably still going to arcades a lot at least until High School ended for me in '86. But probably even more so from '80-'83 where I would hit any place with even a single machine in it.
