Date: September 19th, 2017 2:15 AM Author: thirsty razzle-dazzle office SNES: As long as I can recall. Was my uncle's and he briefly lived with us, then left it behind when he moved out. First games were Super Mario World and the two golf games that were released in the SNES launch window.
Game Boy Pocket: 1996. First game was Toy Story.
N64: Late 1998 or early 1999. Can't recall precisely when, but my first game was Banjo-Kazooie (a '98 release) and I definitely had it by early 1999.
Gamecube: 2001, bought at launch. First game was Rogue Squadron 2.
Game Boy Advance: 2002, first game was Metroid Fusion.
PS2: 2006, first games were Guitar Hero II and some DDR game. (my sister got the system, actually, but she eventually lost interest and I own it now).
Wii: 2006, first game besides Wii Sports was Mario Strikers Charged (well, technically first was Military Madness on the Turbografx-16 Virtual Console).
DS: 2008, can't recall first game.
PS3: 2011, first game was Assassin's Creed II.
3DS: 2013, first game was A Link Between Worlds
Wii U: 2014, bought off Craiglist along with Wind Waker HD and New Super Mario Bros U.
I've never gotten rid of a system though I have no clue where the Game Boy Pocket or its games are these days (which sucks, because said games include Pokemon Blue, Pokemon Pinball, and Metroid II). |

You're like, four gens behind though, and "Xbox" is an umbrella term. And the sentence "I've never owned an Xbox" suggests that that you have never owned any generation of Xbox. |

Date: September 19th, 2017 3:27 AM Author: wonderful dysfunction Well the skills I learned from Halo are transferrable to other games and I wasn't doing anything else at that time, mostly just playing against my roommates.
But this is why I sold my copy of Overwatch earlier this year after playing it for 2 hours. Shit has gotten insanely competitive and is not worth it. |

Date: September 19th, 2017 2:35 AM Author: bonkers khaki house incel Seemed like too much effort to put ownership Everything but the Wii U was pre-college. Since college, I've honestly only played my N64 and Wii U of those systems. N64 was a big hit in undergrad. |
|
Date: September 19th, 2017 2:38 AM Author: thirsty razzle-dazzle office Just ribbing you bro.
I've been going through phases with my consoles. PS3 dominated 2011-2015, but since 2016 I've been on a big retro swerve and have played N64 and SNES almost exclusively (my SNES collection ballooned from about 30 games to more than a hundred, too). |
|
Date: September 19th, 2017 2:40 AM Author: bonkers khaki house incel How do you play the oldies? I've bought a bunch on the Wii U virtual console, too lazy to bother with emulators The original systems are still at my parents house but it's not worth it to me to dig them out and keep them with me |
|
Date: September 19th, 2017 2:53 AM Author: thirsty razzle-dazzle office My roommate and I have all our consoles plugged in. We have a multi-tap set-up for the Xbone, 360, Wii U, and PS3, so they can share an HDMI slot. The Wii, PS2, N64, and SNES all use component cables, so I have to swap them out on the TV depending on which I want to play but otherwise they're completely ready to go.
I used to own quite a few Virtual Console titles on the Wii, but that Wii is still with my parents (my brother plays it occasionally so I didn't want to take it) and my current one has nothing. I have no problem using the Virtual Console (or in the case of Japan-only games, PC emulation), but I enjoy collecting SNES and N64 carts so I mostly play those two systems on original hardware. My entire NES, Genesis, and PS1 "collections," though, are in digital formats spread across different venues (Steam, 3DS Virtual Console, Sonic's Ultimate Genesis collection, etc.). |

That was it.
Parents were poor growing up and that one time my dad bought us a PS2 was amazing
Always envied other kids in my school getting 360s etc and shelling 50 bucks per game.
So I just learned how to pirate PC games |
|
Date: September 19th, 2017 3:33 PM Author: thirsty razzle-dazzle office I still don't shell out for new games even today. My roommate and I probably spend similar amounts on games but I buy 3-4x as many as him because he gets new shit and I only buy oldies for $15 or less (unless it's SNES stuff).

Would lose interest midway and would never beat them.

|
Date: September 19th, 2017 4:20 PM Author: thirsty razzle-dazzle office I'm basically the polar opposite. I usually don't even play games if they can't be "beaten" in some manner.
