My first console was an Atari 2600. Well that was my family’s first.

My own fist was the original NES. Saved up my paper route money to buy it.

My first was the 5200 and my favorite game was Joust. Killing the pterodactyl was the highlight too.

The 5200's was the best home version of Joust.

The real question, did you play paperboy on it?

Oddly enough, I did not.
