Here are the pieces from Donkey Kong, The Board Game.
Here's the dice, one of the barrels, some fire balls, and a bunch of different colored Marios. I could not figure out how to play this game. Seriously. Maybe thats why it only cost 50cents. The lady said her grandkids never played it.

Computer Space, the very first video arcade game in 1971, was the brainchild of Nolan Bushnell, who later founded Atari. It was based on a computer game called Spacewar!, which had been developed in 1961 by Steve Russell, then a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Spacewar! was played, shared and modified by students and research scientists in university and private laboratories across teh United States; however, it proved nearly imposslbe to faithfull adapt Spacewar! to a system containing less than $1,500 worth of electronics. Though Computer Space was perceived as too complex for the mass market and was not commercially successful, Bushnell's video arcade game was prescient.
The Museum of the Moving Image, located at 36-01 35 Avenue in Astoria, promotes the public understanding and appreciation of the art, history, technique and technology of film, television, and digital media by collecting, preserving, and providing access to moving-image related artifacts via multimedia exhibitions and educational programming. Originally established in 1977 as the Astoria Motion Picture and Television Center Foundation, opened on September 10, 1988, in the former East Coast home as Paramount Pictures as the first museum in the United States that was evoted solely to the art, history and technology of film, television and video. Following a $67 million expansion by architect Thomas Lesser, starting in March 2008, the museum doubled its size and reopened in January 2011.
back when mom was up in the city for grad school, or off getting supervision for her license every monday night, dad and i would always - always go to ronzo's pizzeria across bascom ave. to pick up an extra-pepperoni pizza. well, dad would usually get ham, artichoke hearts, and tomatoes. and mom would come home and eat half the pepperoni.
while we waited for the pizza, we always - always - would trek back past the rednecks at the pooltables to settle in for a little head-on-head *cruisin' world* an arcade driving game. no fancy-pants steering feedback, no rumbling from the seats, just straight up, 64 bit driving, with a gas and a brake and gearbox, should you choose manual. win a race and get a free one. win *every* race (i did it once, at trinity lakes one afternoon) and you reach the white house, with a bulbuous-nosed president lounging in a bubble bath with busty ladies.
but london was always my favorite. dad, try as he might, could neverever beat me.
now the campus center, rosie and i have discovered, has arcade games. i noticed them as we walked back from the o-show, and peering inside - i saw it.
she is new to it all, but we settled in and raced our hearts out. i overtook the last car just as we approached stonehenge, and victory - and a coveted *fastest time* were mine.
i plan to defend this title. that one was for you, dad.

This $3 "game" was a piece of crap. It wasn't even a game! All you did was sit there in the seat and it played a scenario on the screen. That's okay if you are expecting it, but when you go in thinking it's an actual game, then you're set up to be sorely disappointed. What a rip-off!

Custom build pedal Jeep and boat I did for both my military sons. One son is in the Canadian Navy and the other son is in the Canadian Army.
So you've got a Wii? Big whoop. XBOX 360? Who cares? I have all of the good games. The ones with real playability. The ones that don't have any "cheat codes" or "players guides". Plus, everytime I play one of my games, I re-claim another quarter that I spent as a kid.
Talkin' bout my generation. If you don't understand, you're probably too young. Go back to your PSP.
The two on the sides play 48 games each (the real games, actual ROMs) and the center console plays 1,066 games, including all of the Metal Slug games, as well as pretty much anything else you can think of. When will the kids of today learn that gaming isn't anything, unless you can feel a joystick in the hand, hear the mad clicking of a button you're smacking with all of your skill and fortitude, all the while a bright marquee light is beaming you in the forehead? Ahhh the joys of arcade gaming.

Macro Monday's theme this week was "Caught in the moment" which is pretty hard to represent in macro form if I'm honest. I've been a keen gamer for probably about 30 or so years now and when you're engrossed in a video game, you're very much caught in the moment because of the concentration required and so this I took as my theme for this weeks entry and pacman is one of the earliest games I played.
I bought a big pack of socks today and they are plain black apart from various characters from pacman on the top (I'm banned from buying plain socks by my wife as apparently they're hard to pair).
I lined the top of a few of them out and then took a shot, imported to LightRoom, ramped up the black slider, underexposed the background and popped out to JPG.
My wife and I recently took a trip to Wisconsin Dells and toured the "colorful" downtown area. I didn't have this reaction when I first laid my eyes on Wally World.
From Wikipedia: Wisconsin Dells is a city in south-central Wisconsin, with a population of 2,678 people as of the 2010 census. It straddles four counties: Adams, Columbia, Juneau, and Sauk. The city takes its name from the dells of the Wisconsin River, a scenic, glacially formed gorge that features striking sandstone formations along the banks of the Wisconsin River. Together with nearby Lake Delton, the city forms an area known as "the Dells". A popular Midwestern tourist destination, the Dells area has numerous indoor waterparks and outdoor waterparks, proclaiming itself the "Waterpark Capital of the World". It is home to the largest outdoor waterpark in the U.S., Noah's Ark. Most attractions are located on the Strip, otherwise known as the Wisconsin Dells Parkway. The Dells area has an estimated five million annual visitors.
