Hello, I/O!
I wanted to provide a quick personal update. I suffered a big heart attack and had open heart surgery on Wednesday last week. I was discharged and returned home yesterday. I’ve missed the I/O community. I hope everyone is well. I am on the road to recovery and doing as well as can be. Life is good. God is good all the time.
The doctor said I should expect 70% recovery by two months time, so it’ll still be a while before I can actively join the fun here, I suspect. I’m hoping that I’ll be feeling well enough to pop in from time to time to check up on this wonderful community. I bought a Turbo Express a while back in anticipation of the scoring challenge but oh well 😭
Live life! Stay strong and safe! ❤️🕹

Justin and I have been playing Tennis on NES lately. 🎾 It's fun! Despite being such a simple concept it's a bit tricky.

I'm closing in on both my 250th Atari 2600 game review and my 700th episode. So I'm planning to do something special for my next three episodes...

A quick review of the "Super Mario Bros Game & Watch".  One of my kids got one as a gift, and I've borrowed it while they weren't looking.
Quick summary:  It's awesome.  Worth the price.
My opinion is that Super Mario Bros on NES is a masterpiece.  The colors, the music, the level designs, the bright graphics.  All perfect.  And this little device captures all that.  At first, the controls seem a little slippery, but that's just because the screen is so small.  Once you get used to that, it's all good.  The screen is nice and bright.  The music sounds great.  It's so well done. 
Bravo to Nintendo for doing nostalgia products with such high quality. 
I've seen a lot of complaints about "no kickstand".  Really?  OK.  If that's all there is to complain about, I think it speaks highly about this product.

✨ Happy New Year everyone! (and Merry Christmas!) A little late >_<, I ended up getting a bad cold Christmas Eve and have been resting a lot. 2 flu tests, 2 strep tests, and a covid test later it turned out to just be a bad cold (luckily!). I'm slowly starting to feel better 🤧
