Calling all retro video game fans, that knew me when I was six! I need your help!
Unlike Picasso and Vincent, I did not have the latest or coolest video game systems. We had the odd, church auction game systems that no one knows existed. How unlucky ;) Turns out we should have kept it.
<-- This one is selling for $199
If my parents paid more than $20, I'll eat my socks.
Few people know the Magnavox Odyssey even existed. Even fewer know it had some of the best games ever. I know this, but I can only drag this pitifully short list out of my memory banks:
Monkey Shines - featuring a creepy blue monkey cover, this involved climbing ladders and monkeys that turned red and tried to kill you.
Helicopter Rescue - You had a helicopter. There were people on buildings that needed rescuing. Good thing you were there.
Lord of the Rings (shared) - this was the lord of the rings game before the movies. I remember it was long. I think it had 2 cartridges.
Pole Position - Or some race game, I think it was pole position. No home game system is complete w/ out a race game.
Some keyboard game (I don't remember the point or the name)
???
Help!
I remembered Monkey Shines, didn't remember the Helicopter one until I read it here, and can't remember anything else. So Sorry!
ReplyDeleteThat's ok. I'll forgive you this time.
