Snatcher- God damn it that's 1988.

honorary mention to the copy of Super Mario for Commodore that a kid gave me on October 17, 1989. I rushed home after weeks of trying to get a copy of this mythical software. Got home and booted it up and it was... Mario? Well, that sprite is Mario, and it kinda plays like Mario, but... this isn't Mario. Is it?

Years later I would learn of Great Giana Sisters and how my version was just a hack. I still played it a lot, though. The reason I remember the date is that the San Francisco earthquake happened that day, I clicked over to the World Series and saw the news.
