Way before your time?
Those were an integral part of my childhood and I'm (slightly!) younger than you!

I remember school lunctimes playing Jetpac.

the only electronic game I had
was a Grandstand Astro Wars.

Mine's the top one - I still have it, boxed and all. Thought Sweary Jr might like it but he proclaimed it shit.

Retro electronic gaming
is wasted on the young.

I spent the other evening unconvincingly explaining how a monochromatic jumping stick man on a screen is a more involving gaming experience than Grand Theft Walrus to the nuggets.

They shook their heads and went to play Runescape.

We had one of those!
Well, I say we, technically it was my brother's but I got really good at it whenever he wasn't around to fight me over it.

Memories...
