Man, I remember unwrapping the NES my parents got me for my birthday. I had three whole games. Duck hunt, Top gun, Mario. That was a nice hit of nostalgia.

Trying to land on the carrier in Top Gun brings back a hit of trauma.

We begged my dad to get us a Nintendo for Christmas. He's like I think we should get a VCR.

Christmas morning we unwrap a VCR box, with a Nintendo box inside it.

Of course I think I probably cried before my dad pulled the Nintendo out.

Zelda was my favorite. Ten year old me played it so much I did the first quest with one life (which I think meant a single sitting as I don't remember it having a save and exit option outside of dying).

But, never beat the second quest!

You can save and quit in Zelda, it just takes 2 controllers. You had to pause with controller 1 then hit Up+A on controller 2.

You would have saved ten year old me a lot of arguments with my dad lol
