Not quite sure if they defined my childhood but I used to play them a lot so in some part they defined my tastes and what I do like to play.

* Moon Patrol (Atari): used to play this title a lot with a friend and when I said a lot I really mean it, we played this title all the afternoons after school and on Saturdays / Sunday I always went to his house just to play with it even before the 8:00 AM, at that time my parents weren't able to purchase neither the console or the cartridge so always was visiting those friends that were popular or with money to have them.

* Snoopy and the Red Baron (Atari) : when I was on my school vacations one of my uncles took me to the Arcades, don't have to said that it was one of my best fucking days of my entire life, were I did played Galaga, Asteroids and other awesome titles, guess that I don't have to say that am old anyway this games as simple it looks really took my attention and instantly became one of the most played, each coin was precious for me.

* Double Dragon (Sega Master): another of my uncles purchased this console to my cousins which came with this title, it's hard to admit it but I did played a Sega before a Nintendo console, the game was pure perfection because there was a huge change of graphics, sound and fun between the Atari and this one also the fact that there are unlimited lives before the last level made this pure fun.

* Super Mario Bros. (NES): the first title from this console that I ever played, none of my friends had this one at that time so I used to pay some pesos to one mothafucka from my neighborhood, he practically rented the console / game at his house for a full play but if there were a Game Over no mater were we have to pay again, God bless the unlimited lives code and the dude who discover this one.

* Mega Man 2 (NES): first title from this console that I owned, even when it didn't had the label was very special for me, used to play this one all days, even my mom told me a lot of time that I'll became an idiot someday, not quite sure if I ended like one cause still love to play at any chance that I have, for me the Icon of Capcom is not Ryu, it's this blue little fella, when I saw the bosses from this title at the third part of this franchise totally went crazy and screamed like a little girl.

Mega Man 2
Mega Man 3
Mega Man 4
Mega Man 5
Mega Man 6

What can I say I love mega man. And as a kid my mother would buy me a copy of the new game every year for X-mas. I still have each one of those in their boxes with booklets to this day on one of my shelves. I probably play one of those at least once or twice a week.
