Dig Dug and Q*Bert ate more of my quarters than any other arcade game in this great land of ours. Those two just never seem to get old for some reason. Ever.

People make fun of me when they come over and I'm playing the NES version of Q*Bert obsessively and swearing at the TV.

I used to play Q*Bert on an Atari 2600. It was fucking hard for me to control. Of course I was really old enough to understand the game, but what the hell... I liked the 3D fakeness that it presented. It was super stimulating even if I never could win.

I always wanted to get around to beating the old "Simpsons" arcade game, but I never got around to it.

That's a game I wouldn't mind seeing placed into a compilation.
