Oh yeah, that reminded me, Cereal boxes used to have those CDs with them. And half the time they didn't even work. I remember searching for a special golden colored one that supposedly had 100 games or whatever. And when I finally found one did it work? No.

I won 20 tokens in an arcade store raffle like 30 years ago.

When the SNES launched I was in second grade and wanted it so badly but we didn't have the money for something like that. My parents said "If you win the lottery you can buy one." My dad went to the store that night and played the "pick 3" lottery and asked what numbers I wanted to play. I said 871 because it was the first three numbers of our phone number and I was a kid who thought I would obviously win the lottery. That night we watched the number drawing and it came in straight 8-7-1. I can still remember jumping up and down with my parents freaking out. I won between $500-800 so my parents bought me the SNES and pocketed the rest. Very surreal and a truly awesome moment from my childhood. I got in trouble for inviting a girl over to play SNES when my parents weren't home and got busted playing Joe & Mac 2: Lost in the Tropica with her, great times.

could have got an amiga
>>
>>12852715
I'm sure Amigas were pretty cheap in yurope, but I don't think they were that approachable in the US... and they were already becoming an obsolete joke by the early 90s. Getting one in 91 means you had about about a couple months before Wolf3D came out and made it a fucking joke.
>>
>>12852717
if wolf3d made the amiga a joke what did it do to snezz? lol. at least amiga doesnt have input lag
>>
>>12852721
Wolf3D wasn't even on the Amiga in the early 90s
>>
>>12852721
Dude he got a chick over the house with a snes, no girl is gonna come over and play your faggy amiga
