Oh wow, this takes me back. I've thought video games were cool since the first time I saw a Space Invades arcade cabinet when I was like 4. But the game that got me really into video games? I dunno. It was either Donkey Kong or Ms Pac-Man.

Yes, I'm old. Yes, I've been playing video games since the 70s. No, I'm not particularly good at them. But ask me whatever I guess 😁

I think we're all old here. the first game I remember playing is Chess on the C64.

I dunno, bud, I'm seein' a lot of folks talking about 90s stuff, and more than a couple talking about 90s stuff they saw their dad playing. Which is adorable. I saw my dad playing Pong, so...

I'm not saying I'm the only greybeard here, just that we're well outnumbered ¯_(ツ)_/¯
