It warms my heart to read that people are still playing the Nintendo Entertainment System. Good for him!

I went for the Kickman arcade world record back in 1982, and broke the machine. Balloons were being replaced by arms and legs falling from the sky, as the programming got “confused” from the high score. When I had 255 “free” men, it reset to zero, but replenished the stock quickly. Eventually the machine froze at around 3,000,000. Someone else got around the glitch and got a much higher score. I was only playing for 2 hours and 45 minutes, anticipating a 24 hour game.

well not exactly, but even though Jason Hall has some dislike for me and claims minor modifications, I admit this guy would kick my ass. Bryan, well not so much

Hi Jason!

Yawn. The kid will now feel entitled and will want everyone to kiss his butt. Except, no one cares.

No longer showing any interest in playing video games isn’t a bad thing. I’m hoping that this carries over into not playing video games, in general, way too much.

No, you lost it somewhere around Level 165.
