impressive none the less :D

Do you have the hand-held LED football game that was just a bunch of red lines (representing players) moving up and down the screen? I'm guessing that was from about 1976.

Around 1980, I had an LCD "Space Invaders" type game on a watch I had. I used to turn off the sound and play it during class.:D

We've got just about every system ever made, Atari 2600, Nintendo, Super NES, N64, PS1, PS2, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, Nintendo GameCube, X-Box, etc... about a million games and just slightly less controlers and memory cards...
Its a little our of control. That's why we had to buy a 7 ft wide entertainment center... and a 36" flat screen to fully appreciate it all


:) :lol:

LoL..yeah..my power bill suffers thanks to all the games here...

im moving on to pinball now..but those are WAY expensive...

Yeah, several of Kev's relatives have a bunch of arcade (including Ms. Packman), pinball, and slot machines that I fear we will be inheriting one day :lol: I love to play them, but they take up sooo much room!

Really?!?!? I haven't seen them yet. I'll have to get one. That's about the maximum complexity I can handle in a video game. When we went to Disney Quest, I was showing Ryan "Space Invaders", and he just couldn't believe civilization could survive with such crappy games.

I recently bought one of the controllers with the built in Activision games (at Target no less). :D

Those are also re-releases..although the OLD ones had 500 + games on em (all atari etc)..but they never took off..so they were discontinued :(
