I was born playing stuff like Fills and Spills for the Comodore VIC-20 and dreaming of one day running a software library of programs saved on audio cassettes. When I was around 6 I bought an Atari 2600 and mastered such classics as the original Mario Bros. and Fire Truck. Eventually I got a NES and had lots of fun with all of the Mario games, Mega Man, Metroid and others. I kept buying the Nintendo systems, but never played the Sega consoles much. I did own a Game Gear, though, which was the only hand held I ever really went in for. When I finally got my 64, it was just so I could play the new Zelda game, but I ended up getting really into a lot of the other games like Shadows of the Empire, 007, Mystical Ninja, and one of my all-time favorites: Wipeout 64. Now I've got a Dreamcast, which I'm just starting to play with.
