Mostly though my gaming adventures mostly consists of a few card games or a good Sudoku puzzle. I have no big desire to rush out a buy a new sparking Playstation 3 or Wii. I did get cheated out a free Wii once, but thats a story for another post. <\/p>\n<p>Its not to say I wouldn&#8217;t play one of those systems probably if I had one, but the desire just isn&#8217;t there. Even when my brother lived with me that had a Playstation 2, the times I did play I mostly stuck to one game. I do have some fond memories of games past though. I remember growing up with my original Nintendo playing games such as Wall Street Kid, Techmo Football or Bionic Commando (and of course Super Mario Brothers).  We did upgrade to a Super Nintendo and I had a few games to play on there as well, but the memories of those are not so vivid. I am sure Halo is a great game with awesome graphics, but I think sometimes I&#8217;d still rather play Maniac Mansion or SimCity. <\/p>\n<p>I did get my old SNES games out that I still have and played a few, it was still fun to play them. They are past their prime and I probably wouldn&#8217;t play them very often, but its nice to take a stroll down the old days back and relive a few memories. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am not much of a gamer these days.
