Commodore 64 … Same here … but it was with a family friend that I went to visit often … every I saw the, we spent hours on their system. I remember sorting through all the ASCII characters to try to make a drawing on the screen … hours and hours of tip tapping to find the right character for the flag of England I was drawing.
I feel old when I think of all the steps we had to take to start the most basic game. Rewind tape. Hit reset on the counter. Find index of program you want and fast forward to that position. Enter load command. Play on tape. Wait. By the time it was loaded and we started recess was over.
Commodore 64!
