80s Arcade Games
The 1980s are considered to be the golden age of arcade games. It was in 1972 that the first electronic arcade games with coin slotting machines came into the limelight with Atari inventing the game called Pong, which was a ping-pong game. This game caught the imagination of gamers from all walks of life, especially teenagers who flocked game joints with coins in hand to play them. Though Atari could not maintain their supremacy in the Arcade game segment as a lot of clones came into the market, the 80s saw some of the most inventive Arcade games.

Buying For Difficult People
Every Thanksgiving we drew our family’s Christmas gift exchange names. Our rules had been established years ago…we still purchased for our parents and any children until after the 2nd birthday. We could purchase a little gift for our godchildren but were supposed to stop at age 18. Those were the rules until this year.
