Then Tetris was a real obsession for me...”
I LOVE Tetris. Have tried to get my oldest grandson interested in playing with me with zero success, even though his father and I played when his father was a teenager. Grandson is just totally into future plans for designing race cars in Europe after he finishes school and just refuses to play anything other than a game which includes “speed” and “race” - and we have all of them ever made.
We also have the original Nintendo Mario which the little boys in the neighborhood love to come over and play.
Those original Nintendo sets are valuable now. I sold one about 12 years ago in a garage sale — brand new unopened for $50. Dummy! Of course that is not as bad as the 1966 Plymouth Barracuda I sold for $500, but the guy cheated me and I only got $350.
