Title: Classic Video Games
Post by: Tom Johns on February 06, 2022, 03:08:19 PM
I love the classics. My wife and I have the Nintendo Switch and I have games like the Atari 2600 Collection, The Sega Genesis Collection, Dragon's Lair Trilogy, Pacman, Missile Command, Space Invaders... just to name a few.

We had two of our grandsons over for the weekend, ages 10 and 9, and we got them hooked on Guitar Hero on our Nintendo Wii LOL... it was a blast.

My kids were really into video games for awhile, but my first brush with them was "Space Invaders" back in the '70s in the bars! It was a pretty big deal, almost every bar had them.

Space Invaders and Asteroids were always my favorites. Wow, that brings back some memories.

That's a game that seems to rapidly increase in difficulty for me. And yet its still fun to play lol

We bought the Pacman Museum game for the Switch and we have been playing that, Sonic The Hedgehog (The original Sega game) and we have been playing the Guitar Hero games on our PS3.
