I found a pic and looked into it and it was from Vidiot magazine from the very early 1980's and then I found them online. Thought others might like to go on a trip back in time with me. Really takes me back there. I LOVED so many of those times and games.

Some of those old stories and ads really hit me.

If you link one level up, there are a lot more choices.

In fact, if you go here, those choices include comics, manuals, magazines, books, etc (including the Donkey Kong guide I picked up at PayLess Drugs when I was like nine.)

Back in those days I got a mag called B.A.S.I.C which was all for my Atari 800XL I think. It had little info bits and news and always came with a small BASIC program for you to type in and see what it did. Maybe a sound or a rainbow...something simple but you felt special you could do it....hey I was like 12 :)

Thanks BH for those links. I feel Im back there again. Kinda sad too. Man I miss those times and all I've lost over the years. I miss them all.
