Congratulations! By the way, the first close-up photo of Mars (1965): NASA's Mariner 4 spacecraft succeeded in taking the first close-up images of Mars in human history, sending 21 photos back to Earth. It was also the day that the long-held belief in the "Martians (canals)" illusion was shattered.

I see, I didn't know that.

Speaking of the Famicom, I got it when I was in fifth grade. Before that, I had an Atari 2600, but I was amazed, thinking, "For a domestic product to be this good is incredible." My first games were Donkey Kong, Galaxian, and F1.

Switch is amazing too, isn't it? It seems to be selling better than the Switch 2, which is sold worldwide.

I bought Switch 2.

I purchased it by lottery two months after the release of Switch 2.
