Exclamation nostalgia

once upon a time I wasn't so interested in some of my older consoles anymore, so I sold my Super Nintendo to my little cousin along with all games but one.

all these years later, I'm kicking myself. I've been wanting to play some oldschool games really bad lately. so, I bought a SNES a couple nights ago and I can't wait for it to arrive. the only SNES game I kept when I sold mine was, of course, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. the SNES I bought is coming with Super Mario World, and I also made a separate purchase for the game Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

it's going to dominate folks.

forget all this PS3 and Xbox 360 nonsense the oldschool is where it's at

WOW! I finally found someone to buy my home-made pong game.

When should I ship it?

You're going to make me show my age. It's the ultimate nostalgic video game. When I was a little kid my father built us a home made pong game, the first video game we had (this was before Atari, Intellivison, etc...)

I coded and played Pong on my TI-81 graphics calculator in high school. We were l33t haxors. I guess I'm showing my age too.

The 'home-made' part was one of the benefits of growing up with an electrical engineer for a father.
