The best memories of me playing the SNES was playing all the Street Fighter games with my dad. I will always remember him taping his arcade stick to a giant mouse pad and taping that to the floor so it wouldn't move. But then he would get mad when he lost and blamed the arcade stick for moving.

Good times.

Hard to believe it's been so long.

I'm surprized I remember it so vividly actually lol, would have only been about 4-5yo.

Still remember opening up that present on xmas morning, and being totally dumbfounded by Mario Paint (like, wtf is this crap??) while my sister couldn't get enough of it.

I remember the ads during my favorite prime time tv shows. I then had to wait while friend already had it for 3 months. Then I got mine before Christmas of 91'the and Super CastleVania IV was a master piece platformer. Now the console wars began. Good times.
