• I was kinda born into it? My earliest memories are of some Tom Sawyer game on an Apple IIe sitting on my mom’s lap while she taught me how to play it. My parents had an intellivision with a good collection of games, the most notable I can remember being Microsurgeon. One of my aunt’s had an Atari 2600. She even had E.T. I was born earlier the same year the NES released in the US, and when I was 4, I think, we got one but I had played Nintendo before at other kids’ houses. I always loved Balloon Fight. I kinda latched on immediately and never let go.
