The Original Nintendo: Part III of the best Fam Reunion Ever

This awe-inspiring photo captures, for me, some of the true joy of video games. Favorites at the reunion were, namely, Jackal. I don't even think Legend of Zelda was played. There was a tiny bit of RC Pro-Am. Some brave souls attempted to fight all the way up from Glass-Joe to Mike Tyson, but were stopped by Soda Popinski or Raging-Bull.

April - you really should get one of these. They're awesome.

For real? This was one of your favorite parts? And, yes, I'm sure April already has a Nintendo wrapped and ready to put under the tree for Aric.

Sometimes it's not about the most exciting things - sometimes it's about heritage. Like eggnog and Chex & Cheerios - would I rather have Pizza-hut? Sure. But it's heritage. And besides, you can just see the emotion on Aric's face.

Did I ever tell you I can beat Tyson? It takes me a few matches to knock the rust off but every few years I re-test my skillz to make sure I still got it.

Sure has been a long time. Hope the family is doing well.
