I remember a guy who would bring a pencil and place over/under his fingers so he could double time the run button. Felt like I watched someone split the atom when he broke out that game hack.

Alpine Ski.*
*Disclaimer: the vacation house we rented recently had a multi-game console, and I was the only one who had played that game. Still fun, since I hadn't played it since 1982 in the local 7-11.

While working on Excitebike and Kung Fu, he devised the concept of a platformer in which the player can "strategize while scrolling sideways" over long distances, and has colorful backgrounds rather than black.[37] Super Mario Bros utilized the fast scrolling game engine Miyamoto's team had originally developed for Excitebike, which allowed Mario to smoothly accelerate from a walk to a run, rather than move at a constant speed like in earlier platformers.[38]

Too many games from the 70s & 80s….if I had a quarter for ever dollar I spent I could probably buy a new car.

I lived in a trailer park as a kid. The Circle C at the road into the trailer park had a Donkey Kong machine. I was the fricking king of Donkey Kong. I had the high score for years.
