My mom started playing video games in the 80's. It started with a couple for the Tandy Color Computer (one was Demolition Derby), then a short stint on the Atari 7800 (the 2 i remember her playing were Choplifter and robotron 2084), until it messed up. Then the NES. Her fav's are Bubble Bobble (so she wasn't the only one who liked it eh? :P ), Galaga, Gauntlet, Tetris, Dr. Mario, 2 diffrent casino games, the 1st Zelda, Spelunker, Puzznic, the Bomberman and Adventures of Lolo series, Adventure island, and a few others. Didn't stop there. With the SNES Zelda again, Super Bomberman, more casino ones, Bomberman for the Genesis, Even Bomberman and some casino games for the PS1. And she still plays them, allthough not that much anymore.
And to think she's in her low 70's now.
