I can’t wait to not buy it.
I’m content to play old time console or computer games on my Android tablet.

I just wish I could load Civ 3 on it.

Yeah, I got a Playstation for my grandson right here. It's called a fishing pole and it retails for $39.99 at Walmart. Anything else and his mama can buy it used at the pawn shop.

I'm the king of sinful sots,

My heart's a dead tomato splotched with moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch!

I'm a three decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!

One of my home chores is to grab an old 32-bit PC and beef it up a little. Load it with Win XP SP3, and throw a boatload of old DOS and 32 bit games on it from pre-Y2K or thereabouts. Most of the licenses are expired or it’s abandonware, so it’ll be a virtual mall video arcade.

Those are some of my favorite lyrics, especially when sung by Tony the Tiger.

If it has a 4K disc player I might be tempted.

And we used to think the NeoGeo was insanely expensive!

These things are so advanced these days, I actually am even uncomfortable looking at photos of them.

Then again, the only games I play either has the words super, Mario, and kart in the title, or whatever is on my Atari 2600 or NES emulator. Age, I suppose.

Mine is already paid for. Can’t wait to play it, if we still have a country after the 3rd
