I loved that damn thing. The microphone this was the coolest thing ever back in the day.

My parents never got me and my brother a video game system the year it released. Always a year later after the price drop.

I collected He Man and Transformers. I really wanted Megatron but didn't get him. Ended up trading two or three from my collection to a friend to get one.

I wanted a NES powerpad so badly. Ended up being the first thing I put on lay away and paid for myself. I was so proud.

My Dad never got me and my closest aged brother video games for christmas, which seemed weird because my oldest brothers had Atari and a Commodore 64.

It was great though, my Mom bought me and my brother a Nintendo, Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64. We lived with our Dad, so she let us bring the game system to our Dad's with us.

Twice the presents when parents are divorced.
