Tetris a classic??!
I spent the morning playing and hanging out with my nephews. I picked up their Gameboy and the following occurs:
Me: "What game do you have?"
Kyle: "Pokemon Leafgreen version."
Me: "Don't you have tetris?"
Kyle: "Tetris?!! That's only if you have Arcade Classic!"
Me: "What do you mean Arcade Classic!?"
Kyle: "..or the Retro games!"
Me: "Retro?!?!?" That's what I used to play on Gameboy back in grade 4!"
Kyle: "Grade 4?!! Whoa!!! That's soooo long ago!"
Me: "What?! No it's not..."
It goes on for a bit of me explaining to my 11 year old nephew how it really isn't that long ago and how I can't believe Tetris is now considered a classic retro game. Oh my!-- definite signs that I'm aging when my nephews tell me that the games I grew up with are considered "Retro". *sigh*

Hey Llorene! I know what you mean when they say that Tetris is a classic. It's quite a shame though. Remember when you would partner up and work so hard to beat the system?!
