Old School NES Owner, New to the Forum
Hello. I first got "the bug" when my dad bought an Atari 2600 back in the early 80's. I made the switch to NES in 1985 or 1986 (unsure which) when my dad bought the deluxe set and a bunch of games out of the Sears Wish Book. Gumshoe, Gyromite, Excitebike, and several others all awaited me under the tree. I've really been thinking about that haul as Christmas nears this year I look forward to discussing the old systems with everyone here.

Welcome. If Gumshoe was one of the games, it was 1986.
I've been leaning toward that being the year because I remember getting Fortress Maximus the following Christmas. It was a 1987 release Transformer, so '86 for the NES must be right.
