Post ITT if you're a poorfag. Being destitute is easy if your main hobby is reading. Or listening to music.
But if you're gaming...
yay for pirating
Games are free you fucking piece of shit.

>destitute is easy if your main hobby is reading
Eh.
Reading can be expensive.Just pirate.
>>263471728
You still need to buy the hardware. And if you're answer to that is 'you can buy used' I think you don't understand what poor means.
>But if you're gaming...

You can run pretty much everything on a fucking toaster thanks to consoles.

get a fucking job op. i make a measly 1500 a month right now and recently bought a new pc.
>>263471919
If you're that poor you shouldn't even have a way to access 4chan.
$60 buys you a wii, a way to mod it, and either a usb or DvDs for game storage.
Now fuck off underage ban.
>>263472008
Fuck you, /v/. I'm from /lit/. Kindles are for plebs, I use a Nook Simple Touch.
>>263472047
I said CAN be, actually owning books gets expensive. Not vidya expensive, but still.

Damn might as well kill myself
>>263472284
I knew some retard will come along and go to ultimate lengths in order to define 'poor'. But even homeless have a way to access internet.
>>263471432
Gaming is one of the cheapest hobbies around, dude. The only cheaper ones are hobbies that don't revolve around buying... anything.

I don't think there are hobbies that are completely free, unless you're into collecting stones or something

Fuck them, I'll play an entire missed generation of games for cheap by myself while they pay for online and the same shit except somewhat prettier and at full price.It's not like I have an HD TV to play a PS4 on anyways.

>>263471432
Old video games are cheap
>>263471432
Learn how to steal shit you faggot.
>>263471432
Play old games from DOS,Snes and GBA era.
You will have enough for a decade.
>>263472542
if you stretch the definition of a hobby wide enough, gaming will look like it takes no money at all in comparison.
>i like to race jetskis and go skydiving
>gaming is cheap
>>263472520
Why the fuck would the homeless be trolling on 4chan? Stop fucking around. If you're poor and your favorite hobby is actually gaming, then get a job. If you're actually homeless then your favorite hobby isn't gaming. Fuck off underage
>>263472992
Only if you'll play anything. I can't think of any system that has more than 20 games truly worth playing through.
>>263473227
You're dumb as shit, those 20 titles are usually the ones you'll see in those "recommended" or "essential" lists, you have to dig around for the rest obviously
>>263472667
If you live in a third world country your favorite hobby isn't gaming.
>>263473527
Because some anon on 4chan told me so?
>>263473227
Then you aren't really a gamer.
>>263473507
How can you know the criteria I have for selecting those 20 titles?
>>263473730
Because you're a typical case, I don't need any other information
Can all you homeless niggers just get the fuck off /v/ and go get a job?
>>263473636
No because you don't even have games to play. Fuck off you probably live in a first world country and are just underage. If not, get a job. If you actually live in a third world country, why are you wasting your time on a chinese image board?
I'm a poor fag but I'm also a PC gamer with many PC gamer friends that sell me their old parts for cheap or give em to me for free. That way I manage to sustain a middle class computer that's still able to play all the new games (though not always on maximum settings). And with steam having sales every day I build a steam library of over 400 games over the years. I also bought a used smartphone (Galaxy S3) for cheap and got a cheap ipega wirteless controler. That way I can emulate everything up to PSP games without any problems. I also got a PS2 with a modded memory card and a bunch of DVDs to put games on. That way I can play the entire PS2 library for cheap.

>If you're actually homeless then your favorite hobby isn't gaming.
Why would you stop liking vidya when you become homeless?

>Spamming "underage" as an insult.
Doing this isn't going to make anyone here like you or agree with you. The only thing it does is make it seem you yourself are underage.
>>263474441
you dont need swap magic for ps2 shit? how 2 mod memory card?

He's just attempting to be subtle while he tries to make people feel bad for being unemployed.

>tfw no jobs

>>263476092
>tfw only available jobs are in retail, six days a week, 7+ hours a day for minimum wage
>tfw better off not working
The only money I make is the leftover scholarship money from my college, which is usually around $1500 a year. I spend it on gamefly so that I can play the newer games on my 360, and Wii, and I emulate and play indies on my shitty laptop. I'm almost out of games to get on the 360, and Wii, and I'm really scraping the bottom of the barrel. So I think I'm gonna buy a PS3 with my next check.

>tfw there aren't even available retail jobs where I live
>tfw I don't get any money at all whatsoever
>>263477412
If you get through a lot of games like you suggest you do, might be worth getting a gaming PC. I have more games than I know what to do with now.
The emulation is nice, too.
>>263475224
No idea, I used the service of some guy who does that for free as long as you send him the mem card and money to send it back. I'm sure there's people around you that do that as well. It's called free mcboot.
>tfw literally broke
>>263477837
Yeah, I should be done with college after next semester. So when I get a job I am going to save up for a nice gaming pc. I've always wanted one but just haven't had the money.
>>263477442
2 of them havent even been released yet. Goddamn youre a hater
>>263478510
Good luck, Anon. You can always build the barebones of it now and add the gaming stuff later. http://www.logicalincrements.com/
Don't get a laptop unless you want to become sterile with how hot they get.

You don't need to make millions to have kickass game stuff.
>>263480585
Yes and ? I've completed 70 games in the last year and I probably got bored of games given the fact that I haven't played a game in 3 weeks sooo I guess it was a good thing that I didn't upgrade. I'll wait until I get a job before gitting a decent rig.
Also, >post yfw you aren't a poorfag playing F2P vidya and you are a fucking idort

Ew. I wouldn't even do that if I had lots of money. I'd just build a super gaming PC with a few 120hz monitors, maybe a big 4K monitor on the wall, those expensive sports-car type chairs and other cool shit. Not waste on hur hur pre order editions (which are made to entice poorfags btw)

whats the fucking point
Gaming isn't a fucking hobby.
It's the same as saying watching TV is a hobby.
Give me a break.
2 games are coming out this month that I want, but spending $100 on games is a bit much for my wallet. Even though I haven't bought a new release in months. What do I do.

One of my hobbies is watching movies, you fucking faggot.
If gaming is not a hobby than neither is reading, listening to music and going to the cinema.
These threads motivate me to get a job. It's just a matter of time, I just need to finish law school once and for all.
