My only worry is that darn electronic scanner -- many people claim theirs still works fine, but does it *really*? My dad has a copy of the game with a dead scanner, which makes the whole thing useless. I guess I'll just have to take peoples' word for it, or badger them with emails asking for detailed statements on the scanner's condition.

We still have our Atari and it works too. Sometimes for fun, I go and play a little Centipede or Frogger. But I think my absolute favorite game was/is Pitfall.

Of course, I still have Chinese Checkers too. But I haven't pulled that out in forever...
