The return of the Nintendo

Just wanted to let everyone know that while I was at my parents house, I snagged the Nintendo I spent countless childhood hours playing...sweaty palms, callused thumbs, the dreaded music, that silly princess always in another castle....these are the memories Stephen and I have been reliving for the past 2 weeks.

The first night, we stayed up until 1am playing. I only have a few games, Mario 1/Duckhunt, Paper Boy, King Kong, and Mario 3, I think I would have the perfect collection if I only had Frogger.

I remember when my sisters and I put our money together to buy the Nintendo Entertainment System. We bought it at Walmart for $199. That was a lot of chores or whatever the heck I did to earn that money!

Anyways, just thought I would share!

I'd like my third of that $199 please. You can repay me in chores if you'd like.
