    I won a NES through a packet of cereal when I was 7. I lost my shit entirely as my parents had banned games consoles in the house. I had hit 20 lotteries that day, I would have never been allowed one if I hadn't won it. And now I've started developing my own games - a bit of a sliding doors thing there.

      You won a NES?! All I ever won was a Monster Munch watch.

        To be fair, I can't emulate a monster munch watch on modern technology. You had the longer-term value there.

          I couldn't find a pic of it online and, alas, I no longer have it. :/

          Have this though, you know, for nostalgia and stuff.

              I remember that ad when it was on TV, and I always overthought the prongs of 'hair' that all pop up at once. Just seemed like that was all they were there for. Almost like the whole thing wasn't real or something.
