    I'll miss your Johnny-come-lately, me-too games and expensive consoles, your cheap-ass arcade hardware that tended to snap off in my hands (or saved me the trouble by eating my quarters).

    Pfft... they're gone because they sucked and they were stupid. Cry me some crocodile tears...

    Actually, I bought a console for about $30 at a garage sale back in 1997. Must have been a pretty good bargain, considering that my setup is still going for $100+ on ebay.
