Hey guys! I thought this would be a treat to share with the community. This is a video of my Dad and I in 1991 making a SEGA Genesis promo video for our family. We were trying to convince them to switch from 8-Bit Nintendo to 16-Bit Sega Genesis! My Dad and I were quite the video gaming duo and I miss him very much. This video is dedicated in loving memory of him. |

Wow, that was a personal and very awesome video! Thanks for sharing Pointing out the obvious seeing as he was your father, but you can really see the resemblance face wise, you look very much alike and even the voice is similar to your voice in other videos, but that could be the accent/dialect |

That's such a great and yet sad video. Its obvious you love your dad very much and miss him just as much. I will never understand that feeling in my own life, but I'm so glad that you do. I'm happy that you got to enjoy your dad as well as enjoy something that you both loved. It seems parents do this type of thing more so nowadays with their children vs the 80s or early 90s.
I honestly wish I could have experienced something like this when I was younger. Your dad seemed like he was just a fun, cool and amazing guy. I do my best to be an awesome dad to my daughter. Thank you so much for the share, it means a lot to watch it. Please share more videos like this if you have them! Thanks again, and such a great video!

I am sure you know that your father must have spent a fortune on sega for you and him.
And you must have been like a walking sega book as you had the knowledge to answer any questions flung at you.
Keep the faith.

I love that video, what a cool Dad- you must have had some great times! His enthusiasm made me smile, that's what video games are all about- what a guy! It's wonderful that you both shared such a great hobby together. Every time you power up those Sega games I'll bet your Dad is smiling down on you. Thanks for sharing.

Fantastic video. I can only imagine the hours on end the 2 of you spent playing games together- must've been such fun!
I'm pretty sure that the consoles of today, could never play as big a part in parent/ child bonding as the consoles of yesteryear.
Keep on playing!
