@Smashy i built a retropie (https://retropie.org.uk/) recently and got bomber man -- what a flashback to countless car rides and late nights playing on my gameboy (also having that light USB wire because backlight screens werent a thing yet)!

 

@Lusciousdrunk my family computer was absolute trash due to my limewire usage hahah -- i thought i was being so clever getting all these songs back in the day and then the computer would be soooooo slow!

Note that if you've already played SMB1 before GameBoy release, then Super Mario Land 1 was so frustrating..

 

Zelda GB on the other hand, i would place it second to all times, second only to Zelda 1 on NES

 

Look at us, 40 years later, still arguing which game was da best !!!!!

Also remember being outside all day in the summers, parents wouldn't have a clue where we were and didn't care as long as we were home for dinner.
