9 years ago this month I posted this video I made 9 years ago this month I posted this video I made on my FB page with like 12 followers. I woke up the next morning and it had 50k views. 

Over the coming weeks it reached 15M views. I filmed myself putting a Raspberry Pi Zero in an old NES cartridge. At the time emulation was not well known by the general public.. tech guys, hardcore gamers, all had been emulating for years but new tech like the Raspberry Pi, a computer the size of a credit card, and software like retropie, changed everything.

The NES classic had just came out and people were modding those but I decided to go a step further with this. I really didn't expect anyone to see it and it's one of those things where looking back I wish I would have changed a ton about the video cause people in the comments will definitely let you know what they don't like or you should have done xyz. But thats really the basis of viral videos. Aside from influencers and youtubers you just put stuff out not expecting anyone to see it. 

This moment really kick-started my dive into the gaming industry, from collecting to creating content, building communities, doing press and speaking at gaming conventions and conferences, to organizing my own gaming convention. 

It's crazy how things happen that ultimately change the course of what you're doing. Before this I had never been to a gaming convention, had no idea people were collecting the same stuff as me, and that so many incredibly interesting people were working behind the scenes of these gaming companies I grew up with only knowing through the games themselves. 

To everyone I've met along the way, cheers! 🙌

I was fortunate to hear some incredible stories fr I was fortunate to hear some incredible stories from @hswmft about his early days at Atari. I can only imagine how cool it would have been to be a 20s something kid fresh out of college making video games for one of the biggest gaming companies in THAT era. 

Gaming companies are giant corporate entities now with HR and rules! 😄 The devs back then made the rules!
