Man, stuff like this just makes me feel really, really old. I can remember the day that Sonic came out. I was 20 years old, living with my brother in the LA area. I owned a Sega Genesis and a TurboGrafx-16, and I was super hyped for the arrival of the Super Nintendo that was going to come out in late August, just a few months away. That was definitely one of the best times in gaming right then. I remember playing a lot of PGA Tour Golf on the Genesis, and a bunch of PC Engine imports from this place near where we lived.
20 years can really fly by.
If any 20 year olds are reading this... TRUST ME... 20 years goes quick, so try to enjoy those 20 years.
