I know this is 80's ROCK talk...but I'm going off track from the ROCK side of the 80's for a sec.
What was your favorite game from the 80's? Video, board, physical, drinking.... all types of games apply.

Monopoly. Oh, and cribbage! I used to play that a lot with my grandmother.
Wow. I think I lost coolness points with that admission!!!
PacMan is still my favorite...

I remmber when I first got my nintendo... I was like 5. And then I plugged it in, and started playing mario... and was in awe. It was awesome. Like having an arcade in my house! I feel the children of today are deprived of the awesomeness that was nintendo.

I am thinking Nintendo hit sometime around 1987 maybe a little before.. I remember buying the thing when I was already out of high school.. but I dont know if it was around for awhile before I bought it.. I have owned so many computers and video games I cant remember.. if you are a true geek you know all of these....
TI-99 4/A , Atari (2600), Colecovision , Atari (5200) , C-64 (commie) , Apple IIe , Nintendo , Genesis , Super Nintendo , Playstation, Playstation II .. and of course like 3 different PC's maybe 4.. 286, 386, Pentium, Pentium II , and now Dual Core.. wow.. I cant believe all that crap I had..
