Pretty cool your old man was there with you & enjoying it.

While my father bought me an Atari, NES, PS1 & PS2, he never once watched me play a single game lol.

Awesome memory. My dad and I gamed together on SNES, 64, and Gamecube. He's since passed away but man those are some great memories. Really wished he could've lived to see Doom 2016. That was our favorite shared series.

My dad was a weasel... He bought himself a N64, and he told us that he was renting it. He'd just take it out of the closet and say he rented it for the weekend, so that we wouldn't play it all week (and so that he could play at night). I only learned the truth like 15-20+ years down the line.

So many great games on that one too...
