irst handheld system I remember having. Anyone else have this?


Yes. I had the older model. Got it in 91 and my friends and I passed that thing around and still played it in college 10 years later. Great little system really advanced for its time.

Atari 2600. Then we had a Commodore 64 and had a couple of dozen games on floppy disc.


When you loaded the zork floppy disk it'd tell you to please wait approximately 1.5 minutes to load, and we'd sit there for 1.5 minutes excited about it. Now I get pissed off about a 15 second YouTube ad.

Pitfall on atari, I didnt know about video games before that. Stayed at a friends house and he had that, and the empire strikes back game.

Then I saw mario 1 on nes..it had color and was the shite.

ETA

I also watched aliens for the first time later that day too.

It was more of a computer, but it had cartridges to play games and joy sticks.
