When someone says to you they've been gaming since Pong, they might really mean it.
This brings back some real feels. This whole thing is GenX as fuck. https://youtu.be/An8d4gfxXfU?t=394 @TheAteam in particular. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan. Currently playing: Flight Simulator X.~PC ... Copied to Clipboard!

Only thing more Gen X than this is The Transformers: The Movie and Pac-Man.

Yeah, I used to watch this every morning. I can't say that I did, but I can completely feel it, on so many levels. That Pong game was an added surprise. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan. Currently playing: Flight Simulator X.~PC ...

WGN Chicago was a superstation (like TBS and TNT) so it was nationally shown all over the U.S. so even though many people had their own local "Bozo" I was used to the WGN Bozo and Cookie. Every morning when I would get up before school in the majority of the 80's I would get a bowl of cereal and sit down and watch Gumby & Pokey, then Smurfs, then The Bozo Show would come on. Right when the grand prize game (the bucket game) was over at the end it was time to fly out the door and catch the bus.

That's cool! During the week yes. At least in that time frame it was. I didn't watch it past the late 80's. I think I stopped watching around 1988 or 1989. --- PSN ID: sled_dogs76 60" Pioneer Kuro Elite PRO151FD, Yamaha RX-V3900 A/V Receiver, Oppo DV983-H player.

Damn, that's some Weekend shit all week. Not bad!
I was a PBS kinda family, so we took what we got. Still, there is something about that show that takes me back.

I watched this as a kid. Grand Prize Game always looked easy and it frustrated me how people failed at it.
