Seriously, there's a picture of me - same holiday - same haircut - same gift - floating around my folks' house someplace. And I'm wearing "footy jammies."

Funny thing is I don't even remember asking for it but I do remember the hours and hours of fun I had with it. I had the 6 switch with 37 games all boxed when I sold it. x_x I have everything back now though.

That's awsome. Definatly seem like you wanted it.

I found a picture of me opening up a sega cd the first year it came out. I think I was like 5 or 6 (no clue when it came out). Im opening it in my arms. Ahh the pleasure that video games bring.

Damn, do they still make footy pajamas? I want some to wear when I go out!

Awesome pic, man.

Thats awesome

I was about the same age at the same time getting the same gift (along with 4 other brothers).

Being a kid back then was golden

**SoulBlazer** · 10-15-2004, 04:02 PM

Good lord -- $300 back in 1978 is about double that now.

**Lady Jaye** · 10-15-2004, 04:19 PM

$300 CANADIAN, not US... (although I'm not too sure how much that'd add up to nowadays...)

**undead455** · 10-15-2004, 04:21 PM

My parents told me that at one time the canadian dollar was worth the same as the us so I don't know how much of a difference it was back then.
