Not for us who started out on an Atari 2600.

I still have a working 2600 and several games, including the E.T. one that everyone dreads lol. It wasn't my console, as it was made about a decade before I was born in '91, and we just recently rediscovered it in storage last year. :rockout:

Play ET. If you make it to the ship before the timer/pie runs out it will be the most epic win ever. You have a better chance of dividing by zero.

Seeing/reading this NES nostalgia going on I just had to listen to The Advantage. Great album if you get a kick out of hearing some guys play level theme songs from some of our favorites, example: Megaman 2: Flashman. My favorite is Zelda: Fortress and Ghost N Goblins.

wow.. Thanks mailman, i now know I have positively missed out on something awesome in my childhood

DaveK · Jan 10, 2010

I was a Sega guy myself, my sister had one and I grew up playing it until I got my PlayStation, then I bought the Mega Drive MKI and MKII in like 2004 and a Saturn around that time. Also got a DreamCast around when it came out and I have a GameGear somewhere.

I miss them

Well where I'm from you eat the mushrooms BEFORE you stab the dog. To each their own.

The more I'm here, the more I realize TPU is a collaboration of addicts of varying drugs.

I had my start with the NES and SNES. At the ripe age of 5 I started playing Dragon warrior, and on the SNES when I was like 7 or 8 playing final fantasy 2, and 9-11 final fantasy 3.

Good memories.

The question is....Can it play Crysis??

Crysis' developers were being breastfed when the Japs were designing this, so no.

The Nintendo setup I got had ROB and the Light Gun with Duck Hunt/Gyromite dual game cartridge. I was the shit on my block when my dad came home from being stationed in Japan with that thing.....

I was a SEGA guy too but I ended up with all the systems eventually.

Good memories.

Ive been addicted since 1982.

I got Dragon Warrior for free when I subscribed to Nintendo Power for one year at the right price of 15 bucks! :rockout:

I also had a subscription to SEGA Visions and got the very first "GamePro" when it was just a news letter!

When the Americans (Atari) dropped the ball with ET and almost ruined the greatest entertainment medium ever created the Japs (Nintendo and SEGA) picked up the ball and scored a touch down! :rockout:

So no they won't play Crysis out of princible. They are far above that crap.

Intellivision and Atari 2600 started me off!! But I still remember Friday October 18th in 1985! I was the second to last person to get a NES before they were officially sold out! I was officially obsessed with the NES and Nintendo products until the Gamecube. By that time PC gaming, Xbox, PS were way better than the kiddie stuff that came out on the Nintendo systems.

I still have a sealed mint copy of a few NES games that are probably worth a lot of money today. But…I have no desire to sell Zelda, Metroid, Kid Icarus, Kung Fu, or my Japanese Rockman!

NES set it off for me then my taste in gaming evolved from there. So I will always give Nintendo credit for shaping me.

I did have a Genesis and a Dreamcast every PS, and every handheld at one time. Almost bought the home NEO GEO years ago too but I decided against that. too expensive and I knew that would never last in the marketplace.

I still have fresh copies of Nintendo Power...haha wonder if they are worth anything.
