Playing pong in an arcade was a quarter.

The original Atari versions of home pong -- which Sears started selling in the mid 1970s -- were nearly $100.

To put that into perspective, adjust for inflation, $98 in 1976 is the equivalent of $353 in 2007.

I am Mario.


I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.
