For me it was Nintendo (NES) all the neighbours had one, we only had an Atari. Nobody was coming over to play that. I asked for Super Mario Brothers and a NES. I got a stupid Super Mario game for Atari. Lol, it was like the donkey Kong game where you climb ladders and have to avoid the barrels. Man was I pissed.

So close but so far. I also was jealous of my friends who had roller blades for playing street hockey. My parents bought me adjustable roller skates that fit over my shoes. Yup, not the same thing.

We didn’t have a lot so I understand looking back now. We even drank powdered milk as our everyday milk. So going over to a friends house who didn’t have clumpy milk was a treat. Oh man, those days. Cant help but laugh. Our kids now are so spoiled it’s sickening.
