Anyone now own a game that over time you had forgotten about?
For me it was Gyruss. How I could've forgotten about that game I'll never know. Years ago when I started collecting, you always think about the games you played the most, and the most popular ones. Pac Man, Donkey Kong, Centipede, Missile Command, etc. "Which one is next on my list to find?" is what I would always say. A friend of mine found my Gyruss in an abandoned church that a former op was using to store games. Sadly, most of the windows were broken out and a lot of the games had bad water damage, etc. He saved Gyruss, got it running and eventually sold it to me for $150. Once I saw the game in his arcade I was like "man I remember Gyruss!"; but up until that point I had forgotten about it for damn near 20 years. I'm glad I have it now....
