Battle toads is the reason I'm going gray already. That game was so frustratingly addictive.
My dad worked at a toy store. I got every game people took back. And a killer Freddie Krueger glove.
Go on, be jealous.
I could never get past the board on Battletoads where you ride the little jet ski looking things, I think it was the 3rd or 4th board. But dammit, i mastered the first couple boards!!
Anybody ever beat Ghost and Goblins? I tried for months.. only game that ever whipped me
Yeah... Ghosts'n Goblins is one of the two games I played that I literally could not beat, no matter how hard I tried.
The other was this:
The other was this:
That karate kid remake was crap.. it should of been Daniel teaching another kid imo
pretty sure Ghost and Goblins was one of those arcade games that were designed solely to keep kids pumpin' in coins. I know some people will say that is the point of 'em all, but come on.. I mean I heard when you beat it, you have to repeat the whole thing again... really? wtf? I couldn't even get to the second turn and I was a pretty talented gamer. Arkanoid, tetris, anything... PRO.. nay, LEGENDARY ninento/arcade gamer from generation 3... but couldn't advance too far in ghost and goblins for some reason. I'd like to meet the person that beat it without any cheats.
I'm watching this... It makes me burn with jealousy and anger... at just the memory of my frustration and the apparent ease this guy is playing this with.
makes me need to vape

I was born in 1979, Gen X. I am NOT in the same generation as my son who was born in 1999. Nope, no way!Sorry but look at wiki's definition of Generation "Y"
Generation Y - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In my opinion, and in the marketing industry, generation Y is the 25-34 years old (I'm writing this in 2012 - for prosperity!)
But, I must admit that there is no "real" generations - these are only imaginary categorizations that can be debated forever.
I am happy to see that this thread keeps getting action an participation. Let's unite and become a lobby in the vaping community! (I don't care what they say about anyway... I don't care 'bout that! I don't care 'bout that!)

Your son is under 25 so he's not in the same Gen. Here's a proof that your son is not in the same generation as you:
Ask him if he knows what THIS is:
27 year old vapor here (damn, 30 is just around the corner). So I guess I'm "Gen Y" both from the age and birthday perspectives.
Tiger Heli...spent too much time trying to beat that game, and I'm still convinced it can't be.

I would have to agree with you. I think us born in 79 are really considered gen X. I think I just consider my self a 90s kind of guy. My best memories of Music, TV shows, etc come from the 90s...

Born in 80 (my wife was 79), her experiences and mine were the same. I don't identify as much with the Power Rangers, Furbies, Pokemon...that was kid stuff when it came out.
But Atari 2600 making way for Nintendo, my 8086 to an 8088 to a shiny 486SX25 logging into Renegade BBS, screwing with the TV to try to pick up fuzzy soft core porn on Spice Channel, wondering what the box of beta max tapes in my attic were for, remembering the day I left my trusty Walkman to get a Discman, and wishing I could be half as cool as Zach Morris...those were my bag.
All I can say is I'm 31 and what i have been working on is a working nes controller with a built in PV. its going take a little while but ill figure it out. The concept of playing with the blue bomber and vaping off that controller kills me.
