/vr/ - Retro Games

Playing 1943 Battle of Midway in the little arcade at the mini golf course in the town over.
I also have early memories of playing Duck Hunt and Mario Kart at a family friends house. I would twist and turn the controller when hitting corners, because it obviously helped.

1943. I think I was maybe 7 or so and arcades were in full boom but I just thought they were like electronic pinball or something. We went to a roller rink and my mom and dad were like "Hey Anon likes planes, this game has planes in it!" I had to stand on a box to reach the controls. Anyway it only took a few minutes before my brain was blown the fuck out. I went home with images of it dancing in my head for days.

That christmas I got my first NES with 1943 for it. I never made the connection that the super fucking awesome game i played in the arcade might be on the nintendo, it just never occured to me. So when I saw the nintendo and the game I freaked out in the best way possible.

I also knew it was super expensive, not like some gi joes or whatever, so it was my pride and joy. I still own it and the game to this day and still love the shit out of them
