Look! Old School Electronic Games

With all this talk of Wii parties and hardcore PS3 custom cabinets around here, not to mention the fact that humankind has managed to 'contribute' 64,109 years of playtime to Halo 3, sometimes we just like to think back to simpler times. Think Operation and programming your Big Trak. Do these ring a bell? Click through to take a short walk down memory lane.

Wired has put together a nice piece with some reader submissions that include Simon, Lazer Tag and Stratego. Nice. Do you have any favorites?

See the full (and growing) list here.

wow my stratego wasn't electronic - that one is cool.

I actually have quite a number of these, salvaged from garage sales and such.

With a lot of baby boomers retiring and moving out of state,or being foreclosed on, many are opting to clean out their attics of their kids toys from the 70s and 80s, so this may be the best time to ever snag one of these gems.

My favorite: My Tomytronics tabletop Pacman game.

We used to have Blip! Thanks for this post, brings back forgotten memories :)
