As someone who has a 4.5-yr-old and a 7-yr-old, who play both modern and
classic games (at my insistcnce), I too LOL'd at some of the comments. But the

different colors on the blocks in Tetris meant something, wondering if you can
do stuff with the umbrella and purse in DK, rapid-fire in Space Invaders,
etc.

Very cute! : )
I noticed this line (talking about Pong): "I saw a documentary on this. The
game was so popular in arcades that it got jammed up with quarters." I
