what games are celebrating their 30th birthday this year?

Just thinking about this on the way home from work last night. Over the next few years, many popular classics will hit their 30th birthdays... just like many of you. Sadly, I passed that milestone quite awhile ago. I would be a really old school EM.

i suspect a lot of us are well past that 30th birthday mark already... this doesn't generally seem to be a young person's hobby.
 
And most importantly, the Phillies won the World Series.

Amen brother!! I still have one of the posters from "The Daily Bulletin" which shows the hand-drawn faces of Gary Maddox, Pete Rose, Mike Schmidt, Steve Carlton, etc etc.

It now hangs in my son's room. :D It will be a while before he gets my Lonnie Smith bat though! :D
 
Friz has to take his shoes off to count past 5 so cut him some slack :D

Reminds me of the redneck vasectomy joke (copied and pasted here for your enjoyment)...

After having their 11th child, a redneck couple decided that was enough, as they could not afford a larger bed. So the husband went to his veterinarian and told him that he and his cousin didn't want to have any more children.
The doctor told him that there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem but that it was expensive. A less costly alternative, said the doctor, was to go home, get a cherry bomb (fireworks are legal in Alabama), light it, put it in a beer can, then hold the can up to his ear and count to 10.
The redneck said to the doctor, "I may not be the smartest man in the world, but I don't see how putting a cherry bomb in a beer can next to my ear is going to help me".
"Trust me," said the doctor.
So the man went home, lit a cherry bomb and put it in a beer can. He held the can up to his ear and began to count:
"1"
"2"
"3"
"4"
"5"
At which point he paused, placed the beer can between his legs, an resumed counting on his other hand.


OK back to the topic at hand...
 
Great year for Atari. I will soon be celebrating with a recently paid for Battlezone. BTW, does anyone (old enough) remember seeing Army recruiters hanging out by the Battlezone BITD?
