Lady & A Tramp

This one was almost erased from my memory (Recall! Recall! Recall!) until my brother mentioned them. These Ms. Pac-Man baseball cards came with scratch off games in which, just like the real game, you had to eat dots and avoid the ghosts. And thank goodness it came with the most delicious stick of gum to help you pass the time. A stick of gum that made Fruit Stripe seem like a 16oz filet mignon. The only thing I can't figure out is why they made Ms. Pac-Man look like a cheap whore.

Nintendo Game & Watch

It began with a game called "Fire". So simple...save people jumping from a burning building by bouncing them into the ambulance using your trampoline. But it quickly became an exciting series of games, including titles like "Octopus", "Popeye", "Parachute" and "Manhole". All simple single screen LCD games. These games would hit it's peak with the release of "Donkey Kong"...a dual screen flip top game. My friend owned this game and I played it so much at school that I wanted my own. So on my next birthday I was excited to unwrap my present and find..."Oil Panic". Don't feel too bad, I ended up loving that too.
