I still wish I had Cannon Spike, Mars Matrix, GunBird 2, GigaWing 2, et al.

Do you want to play them or put them on a shelf and sniff the manuals?

When I sold my Duo, way back in 1999 or 2000 I had Magical Chase. I sold the Duo and a BUNCH of shit for like, $200. It seemed like a lot at the time.

I could probably get my NES games back if I asked, but all I'd probably end up doing is giving them away to people on TNL.

I gave away all my NES stuff too. It's undoubtedly sitting in the trash somewhere. Kind of sucky, but I would never use any of it.

I never had anything valuable. I figure by the time I want to play this stuff again, I can play it on a pretty decent emulation device. I don't want to keep all that junk. NES carts? pft, garbage, more physical junk

The bartering value of knives among the twelve-year-old boys of overly vigilant parents in the suburbs is amazing. I could have been taken for more.

I didn't even think about that. Was it one of the super duper ones, or that bootleg five banger?

It was the duper. I could have caught, gutted, scaled, and eaten a fish with that fucker.

As it was, though, I used it to poke trees and scoop the crud out from under my nails after long afternoons of tree-poking.

To my credit, that was more fun than B.O.B. ever was.

I don't know, man. It seems like you made out pretty well for the age you were.
