Good ol' Pitfall Harry. I always felt sorry for that poor bastard. I remember playing E.T. on my Atari, too, except the only memorable thing about the game was how awful it was. I remember playing Zelda on the NES, before the days of the internet, when the only way you could get help would be calling Nintendo's long-distance tip line. I remember being so damn happy when Nintendo Power came out with an issue with a full-color fold-out map.
Those were the days.
