Parent's and Vidya.
Also here's a little story about how nice my mother is, and how evil my father is.
It was 1995, my mother has just heard about vidya consoles, and how they're the "new thing" for children, and the biggest things on the market.
She goes to buy one of these systems, either the Mega Drive for £126 or the Super Nintendo Entertainment System for £128, but is caught up in an argument about which console is better, with some employees and soon walks out the store with both of them.
So, she hides them away until Christmas Eve, and as my brothers are asleep, she lays all the presents out, and the Mega Drive for one of my brothers, and the SNES for the other, in their boxes with their games, and she goes to sleep.
The next day, she wakes up to hear my brothers really happy about the presents, and ripping apart the Mega Drive box (poor mega drive box ;_; ), and trying to set it up, and she can't see the SNES anywhere, so she looks around, and then asks my father.
"Oh" he said "They break everything, so I took it, and I'm going to give it to my relatives, they don't need two anyway."
He then left with it, and gave it to our cousins.
You think that's bad? He did it again with the Sega Saturn, and she didn't have two of those.
