That’s so awesome! I was never any good at Donkey Kong. Centipede was my jam. That and PacMan and Space Invaders. I did enjoy the Nintendo Duck Shoot game as well. @Mark_Rudnik

Now that’s some serious gaming history!
No. Back in the day we had Woolworths variety stores. Now we have Big W (variety) and Woolworths or Woolies (grocery).

WOW! I always thought that this was seriously something that was owned by someone in little old B/CS back in the day. @Suzanne_Jones

I thought I did better than I did.
Space invaders and Pong came out when I was in my 20’s I think. I really liked PacMan the best though as I could actually do that one. Games as a child would have to be Monopoly and Aggravation. I also played a lot of card games with my grandparents like Canasta and Pinochle

Ugh! That laughing dog, sometimes, I wanna smash him! Hahaha
Board games and card games with family always seem to stick with us the longest. 
I feel like I said this already but my friends Dad, John Spinello, actually created the Operation game and sold it to MB they gave him $500. for a game that was a winner

THAT IS SO COOL! It seems like he got ripped off, but back then $500 was a decent amount of money.
