my best friend growing up was poor, so my mom gave him 20 bucks for a class trip to NYC. my family wasn't rich either so that wasn't exactly an insignificant amount of money to give a kid that wasn't yours. so of course the second our bus stops in the Big Apple he spends the entire 20 on fake Oakley's being sold by a Dominican man holding a trash bag full of them.

i remember going to the arcade with my parents one time, and there was this brand new holographic machine that cost like 4 dollars to play (which is even more since arcade prices hadn't ballooned yet). my parents had given me five bucks in quarters for the night, but i had these amazing fantasies of super realistic VR gameplay. i load in 16 quarters and it was easily one of the most disappointing moments of my young life. some gangly nerd in dockers, barely visible on the "hologram" slowly walking from one side of the playing field to the other, with incomprehensible dragon-lair style gameplay.

That's Time Traveler! It's terrible!

Also, kinda same but accidentally selecting Demo mode on G-Lock instead of choosing the option that let me control it myself

Saved up all the money I made at a summer job and slowly beat Gauntlet Dark Legacy over three months.

Playing extremely carefully so a dollar can get me past that piece of poo poo genie.
