I was never this rad, but there is always hope.

Man, I remember unwrapping the NES my parents got me for my birthday. I had three whole games. Duck hunt, Top gun, Mario. That was a nice hit of nostalgia.

Trying to land on the carrier in Top Gun brings back a hit of trauma.

What game is he playing? Is that Chip n Dale?

[–] wazzupdog 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes it is. I put so many hours into that game as a kid into my teens trying to beat it.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

I beat it hundreds of times as a teenager. Never played Chip&Dale, though.

I think it might be.
I hated the last level in that game.

This picture was the end game for 80s babies. A Duck Tales poster would really tie my room together.

Kid looked just like pat sharp

Kind of looks like a dollar store Zack Morris.

[–] instamat 2 points 1 year ago

More like a wish zack morris

I remember telling my dad that I wanted an NES. He was like “we got NES at home.” Get home to a Bally Astrocade. Looking back that was cool as fuck. I miss that thing. But man was I pissed back then.

[–] NerdyPopRocks 6 points 1 year ago

That boy’s mother is working 2 jobs to feed her kids and protect them from the horrors of the world. What an innocent time

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Wow! I completely forgot that I had model jets hanging from my bedroom ceiling as a kid until I saw this picture right now.

[–] rivingtondown 4 points 1 year ago

It's a Capcom ad that ran in Nintendo Power - hence the Capcom hat, him playing Chip 'n Dale, the multiple copies of Strider on his cubicle-ass looking desk setup.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

[–] kamen 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

My neck hurts just by looking at this picture.

[–] Ibex0 2 points 1 year ago

Pretty sick, eh?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I had a hat that exact same shade of radioactive back then. No badass mullet, though...

[–] ProvableGecko 1 points 1 year ago

Fleshlight technology has certainly improved. They are much smaller now and come in colors other than yellow
