HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

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." :embarrassed:

[-hellvin-]

LoL, that is an awesome picture. YAY for ATARI!

[unbroken]

hahhaa thats so awesome. I got find this picture of me opening an snes on xmas and almost shitting my pants.

[undead455]

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. :)

[MarioAllStar2600]

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

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 :D 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 :-D

[SoulBlazer]

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

[Lady Jaye]

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

[undead455]

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.

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.

US launch price was $200.
