Birthdays, that “important” day of celebration when your mom birthed you into the world under usual, and sometimes unusual, circumstances. It may have been at a hospital after your mom was driven in haste after the water broke, or at a home because it was too late to reach the hospital. Maybe you were born on the same day as one of your relatives, for better or worse. Perhaps you were born with a twin or another set of babies, within minutes of each other. The process may have been standard or the doctors had to intervene on your behalf. However and whenever you were born, birthdays are a wonderful event or another year to scratch on the wall.

I’m celebrating my birthday this month, which means most of the episodes in September will be all about video games in relation to me.

This week, we’ll be playing tracks from video games that were released on the day of my birthday, September 3rd. They were released regionally or to the world at large, on physical and/or digital forms. There are few I have played, one with some special meaning to me and another of which I’ve played in their series.

Let’s break out the party favors, bring in the bunches of giant balloons, and light up the candles on a slice of Claim Jumper’s Motherlode cake. It’s time to get this party started!
