Struggle gaming as a kid

[DreadBrown]

the fukk is that

It had Sonic built-in so my parents felt no reason to buy any other cartridges.


At least i could play the shyt though, the opposite of this is when they got me & my sister pokemon red and blue but no fukking gameboys

I guess I was spoiled and didnt even notice. mostly because by the time I moved out the hood and into the burbs, it seemed everyone had what I had, and we all just traded games.

I do remember her hustling some poor little kid and her dad for their SNES. She managed to trade my NES with like 7 games for a brand new SNES with 2 games. then she bought me 2 more games. Poor lil kid was probably blowing the hell out them cartridges. lol

Or when your Moms spent 60 buying 10 games from the $5 bin .. instead of the 1 $60 game you asked for because she thought More was better..

I had a summer job so after my mom got me a NES .. i bought baseball stars and mega man 2 myself..

Then having to wait 2 years to get the latest system .. by the time i got super nintendo I already knew all the secrets and gameplay for super mario world.. remembers finding the christmas present in the closet and opeing it up and playing with me brother every thime mom went out.. then unhooking and puttign the box back in the closet.. by the time christmas game and we got the system . our save data was already over 60%
