I forgot about the Rudolph game, LOL. They had Wii games based around weird stuff. One of them was even based on the Cold Stone Creamery ice cream stores.

Probably the one Pong game I would be interested in seeing is Nintendo's Pong console which was Japan-only.

I played it and thought it was good, but I much preferred the speed and design of SM64.There was no instance in which I thought a Rare game was better than its EAD counterpart.

My family had a Pong machine. It was a knockoff and not an Atari or Sears Pong machine. I think it's packed away in storage somewhere.

Disgaea 4 is the only one of those I played. I used to like Rampage in the arcades and played Rampage: World Tour on the Midway collections. Haven't played the Wii game.

I never even heard of the 2600 games. I did play a 2600 game called Tutankhamun which I believe was a 2600 version of a Konami arcade game.

My laptop is 7 years old and falling apart. I might get a new one, but it'll probably be a more utilitarian machine since I don't really game with Steam. I've seen the gaming laptops though, they look kinda cool.

That's awesome. I'd love to have a DK ornament for my tree this year.

I'll have to look into the Dig-Dug cabinet. It's cool you have a full-size Dig-Dug machine. Someday I want a full-sized DK machine, LOL. Since this company and Johnny Turbo's Arcade are bringing out Data East games, I'm hoping that Atomic Runner Chelnov is in the works for a Switch release.

Solaris was really good for a 2600 game.It was the last 2600 game my childhood best friend got before he got a NES. It was a better Star Raiders sequel than the official Star Raiders II from Atari (which started out as a tie-in to The Last Starfighter). Smart of Doug Neubauer to hang on to the rights to the game, but I wish we'd get it on one of the regular consoles.

When I was a kid, I always wanted the Coleco tabletop arcade games even though they were primitive even by the standards of the early 80s. Every once in awhile a friend from school would bring one (usually Pac-Man or Frogger) and we'd all crowd around and play it. These mini-arcades look cool enough, and I've seen them at Target, Walmart, and at Toys R Us before it went belly-up. Unfortunately, I doubt they'll ever have the games I'd really want - Nintendo's arcade games - in mini-arcade form. In particular, I'd love to have a minaturized Donkey Kong machine with the marquee and bezel graphics and all that. I'm just glad that Hamster finally brought DK and Mario Bros out on the Switch so I can play them there.  I also liked the design of the old Dig-Dug arcade cabinets made by Atari, did they have those there?

I have the Atari Flashback Classics on PS4, but I kind of want them for Switch since I've already got so many classic arcade games on Switch. Cool that volume 3 has 5200 games. Still no Solaris though. Guess they couldn't get Doug Neubauer on board. :(

Cheetos and M&Ms when I was a kid, but when I was a teenager, those PB Crisps snacks that Planters made. They were like 3-D Nutter Butters.

I never was dedicated enough to get a CRT for retro-gaming. I know a lot of people don't like how pixelated older games seem to be on HDTVs, but I never noticed as huge a difference as others. I guess I also have memories of my first big-screen TV, which was a 36 inch Toshiba CRT. Moving that TV was a three-man operation. Ugh. Even in pawn shops CRTs are getting tough to find anymore.

Between Arcade Archives, Johnny Turbo, and Namco Museum, however, I have turned my Switch into quite an old-school arcade, albeit one that can also play games like Breath of the Wild and Doom, LOL.
