Damon's favourite games from the 90s!
Nintendo Games: If I said I didn't miss the simplicity of these old cartridge based TV games, I'd be telling a fat, fat lie! I can remember those compendiums of Olympic Games, being super competitive when taking on friends in tennis, and then of course, who could forget the Mario Bros? If I had to pick a favourite, it would definitely be that one!
Board Games: Here, for me, the ultimate was the process of elimination and doubt in Cluedo. Who was it? Colonel Mustard? Mrs Peacock? Miss Scarlet? Where was s/he? The kitchen? The drawing room? The library? What was the weapon of choice? The candle stick? The rope? The lead piping? Another firm favourite of mine was Trivial Pursuit. Confession: I used to lie in bed at night and study the cards! I know, it's sad. For me personally, Risk took too long, as did Monopoly - and I never trusted the banker anyway!
Other Games: Marco! Polo! Anyone who ever says they never opened their eyes while they were supposed to be closed is lying! There, I said it! I can also remember playing Hide and Seek with my friends in the neighbourhood. I never ever counted to 100 before I started looking, by the way! What about the old favourite, Finger Snooker? One of my most competitive exploits during the 90s. I can remember always having that container of baby powder too to keep the board smooth.
