I love seeing that my 2 boys now 10 and 14 enjoy playing classic gaming systems. I have misc older game systems from Atari to recent consoles. He really liked playing games Atari lately and one week I got them said he bought 6 atari's and games off this guy from craigslist and he was wondering if I could take a look at them and see if they work. Needless to say I was kinda upset at first that he did not wait till he was actually here so I could check them out before he spent 100 bucks on these. The next week that I pick them up he gets all of them and the games for me to check them out.
I notice that some was just plain crap, water damage and such. Plug up a couple and switches was stuck and misc, so I start taking them apart and what did I happen to see old dead roaches. This is just so great, I just wanted to throw them all away but decided to say screw it and try and clean the crap. Out of 6 I got 3 fully working and in almost pristine state.
He was so happy that I was able to fix a couple and that he and his brother could actually play it at thier moms house.
Even though I may have been upset at first seeing him and his brother happy was enough to put a smile on my face.
But he does know that he tells me and I go with him if he wants to buy anything else.
Hmmmm guess I let the time get away from me and it's 6 in the morning, oh well it was good reliving some of the goods times in my life.
