Never! Well, not in the way that you think. When people give me "that look" when you tell them you're a retro gamer, I can't help but brace myself in a defensive stance. Come on, I can take it. This thing called NES, that's my lifeblood man. No one will tell me to stop collecting. Not even the Pope or Katy Perry combined! Never!
I wonder if she likes retro games.
As far as I could remember as a kid I always wanted a big library of Nintendo games (that's NES for you kiddies, back in my day when you said 'Nintendo' that meant NES) at my disposal. I'm nearing the 200 mark so far and I've been collecting (the hard way mind you) since I received my toaster back in 1990.
I get all giddy like a girl going to her first dance when I see a new game I never played before. As a kid I would scour local flee markets and yard sales hoping someone would have more than a Mario/Duck Hunt cart. That kid still lurks in me everyday I'm out and about looking for games.
Seeing this at yard sales was a good indication of other games...
Sometimes I just sit back and think what my 8 year old self would think of my collection of almost 200 games. Little Will would have freaked out! I'm sure of it. Ha, ha, ha! Hell my little self wouldn't know which game to give a go! Well, not Ikari Warriors, that game sucks ass.
Yup, 8 year old me would still hate this game
In the meantime, in between time!
