Some late entries for the controller thread.



Handheld heaven. I want them all


Handheld hell.


My sister murking ducks one foot from the screen. and playing the badass Vectrex.


I flew out of a hole and fell right back in playing ET for Atari.


I want to know more about this monstrosity.

Classic videogame track sampler


You are "in" the game.

Yeah. If you ever go I recommend stopping at Blue Goose Cantina right down the road to get your food on after getting your game on.

drat, it looks better than I expected, when I was researching it online for places to stop the museum listed a big selling point as Randy Pitchford's Desk and it made me a little iffy on going.
