Pissed?
Confused?
Happy?

With a package of Mattel Electronic Football, Baseball and Basketball for his Birthday? LOL. Was going to get him an Atari, but didnt want to deal with the hooking up!

Yeah, I probably will get him something else, like a Gamestop card

Cool if he's into retro stuff.

My son is a video game historian. We got him a Super Nintendo and he freaked out.

There is a guy in Chicago who sells every old game, something like Retro gamer. I posted a link about him once before and he sent me an email to take down the link to his sight. LOL

That's kind of odd. You would think someone who sells something online would like the promotion. Unless he has something to hide...

just buy a broken original nintendo, gut it out and put a raspberry pi in it with an emulator distro. you have all NES/SNES/SEGA Master system/Genesis games that were made all in one.

You can just buy a Nintendo reproduction. I think they're pretty cheap. A friend of mine has a NES/SNES combo, and I think it was only about $40.

They have handheld ones that look pretty cool.
