God, I am so much older than most of you. I remember playing an Atari. There was a cartridge with about 50 mini-games on it. There was this fishing one...

The first games really I played were:
Alex Kidd in Miracle World (built into my first Sega Master System)
Super Mario Bros on the NES (had to blow into the cartridge to get it to work)
Sonic on the Master System, yes the FIRST one! No triple spin? No Tails? Glad those days are behind us. But the music from Bridge still sticks in my head.

And you know what? I still own those machines and those games, and they STILL work!
