I'm visiting my brother Steve's family for the holiday/his birthday (Happy #49, Chief!) and my nephew, Ben, and I have been discussing growing up playing video games. He's a member of the Nintendo Generation, while I'm an Atari guy. If you are ever in the mood for old skool gaming nostalgia, you should check out what's available online. Ben's downloaded all the classic Nintendo games, along with covers of the theme songs done by a band called the Minibosses (other bands cover the songs, too).
The timing was perfect when I checked my inbox and found this Mario video. Thanks to Terry for sending me the youtube link.
Of all the 1st generation games, Super Breakout is still my favorite. Which of the old games tops your list?
