That was what I was thinking, too. I would recommend a rubber eraser like on a pencil. But, not too much, as they can be abrasive. Thanks for letting me share.

Since I rarely go out to the movies anyway, I think that I would stay mostly home and stream. However, I am not above going to a movie theater either. I might do a little of both. I still worry about COVID-19, so if I did go out I would definitely take a mask with me. I would encourage my friends to do the same. Safety first, and I live carefully. :O)

I wonder if something is sticking to make that happen. But, you said the buttons were fine. Interesting.

I can't get close to MY high score either. I feel for us.

I mean it, too. I am in fifth place now.

Slight? It is a vast improvement from me. Good job. :O)

Tempest 2000 is a gem. CD-quality music and advanced graphics took it over the top. Jeff Minter outdid himself that time. :O)

Don't forget AVP for the Jag. That game was ahead of its time. I showed it to a friend, and the graphics and sound knocked her off her feet. She loved it! That was a great game for the Jag, that and Doom.

The coolest Atari game. Hmm… A good choice might be Primal Rage Arcade. Now, that game rocked. The Jaguar version could have been better, though. It was just too slow when loading. Marble Madness Arcade was another one. Great games.

Children's Palace was in Minnesota for a long time. They were in Maplewood Mall in Saint Paul, MN, for a few years. Then, they went belly up. They had a great Atari selection.

Correction: it was created in 1962.

Ralph Baer's prototype game machine was probably the first true game system. The Brown Box is even at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC. Now, that is history. :O) I know that MIT had "Spacewar" in 1968, I believe. I think that was the first video game, if I am not mistaken.

Besides, I like the music anyway. :O)

Interesting. I am playing on an Atari 2600 Junior Short Rainbow. It has the difficulty switches labeled A and B on both sides. :O)

Yeah. That is what I wonder, too. Good point.

Don't forget the tanks, the ship that sneaks up on you from behind and the volcanoes! :O)

I will keep trying, and I should get better at it in time. :O)

Here is my first attempt at it. Not as high, but good anyway…

I will try to get into this as well. I have the original Moon Patrol for the A2600, as well as an A2600. Should be no problem. Thanks, Justin. :O)

Phantasy Star, definitely. One of the best JCRPG series ever made, IMHO. It took me a year to beat it, and I did. I also beat Phantasy Star II and one generation of Phantasy Star III. I have not played Phantasy Star IV long enough to beat it yet, and I played it only in emulation online. I got my duff served to me by Zio in PSIV. That is as far as I have gotten in that game for the time being. I quite agree on one thing. SMS Choplifter is very good and the best version of that game. I also like Space Harrier 2D and 3D. I had both at one time. Great games. Thanks for letting me share this information. :O)

I have heard of KC Munchkin. It was for the Odyssey2. I remember the commercials for it on TV. But, until I saw this post, I had never heard of Grabber. Interesting.

I forgot about Half-Blood Prince. Cool. :O)

I believe the sixth book is "Deathly Hallows," isn't it?

I am practicing myself. My highest unofficial score is 1,800 points. It is VERY difficult and challenging. :O)

Speaking of virtual visits, I have one with my doctor tomorrow morning. I have an audiobook on CD by author Brene Brown. It is about embracing imperfection. She is also a therapist, I think. I wanted to see what it was like, so I bought it from Amazon. Interesting book, by the way. :O)
