Did anyone here grow up playing vidya from the 4th gen? How about 3rd and 4th?
>>
>>334288080
Was born in 92 and had a snes from 1995-2001 because family was poor

The kid next door had a genesis for the same time period

When we hit high school I was a normal well-adjusted kid and he was already on his third back-alley tattoo

When we hit college age I grew to 300 lbs and played melee all day while he was going to electrician school so he could support his fugly babymama I'm 100% he had to be drunk in order to fuck

Video games kill, no matter what brand

Oldfag here. I got into gaming on the C64.

Why are you guys even on this site? Most of /v/ today was probably born in '97 or '98. A lot of them born even later. I always figured once I hit 21 I'll just try to find real friends or a smaller, saner community to hang out in. This place is nothing but pepe edits and the same handful of arguments played out over and over.

i remember having an atari at some point but i was way too young to be allowed to touch it.
>>
>>334288740
i'm a game designer, looking for memes to put in my game.
>>
>>334288740

Where do I find a sane and good community to hang out in? I'm in the Illinois suburbs, there's nothing here but cornfields.

>>334288740
I was 22 when i started coming here.
that was 8 years ago

>>334288913
neogaf is pretty great if you aren't half-/pol/tard like most of /v/
>>
>>334288970

I was 19 or 20 I think, 8 years ago as well.
>>
>>334288740
I like talking about videogames. I took a long break from gaming for around 6-7 years and only returned to it a couple of years ago. I'm mostly posting on /vr/.

So what do you think of vidya in the modern age senpai?
>>
>>334289013

I tried it briefly a couple years ago. Wasn't for me. Unless I had "forum cred" people would barely say a word to me.

CAN'T WAKE UP
games will never get better

>>334289256
There are a lot of good games out there but unfortunately a lot of my favorite genres get hardly any games anymore or have gone to shit completely.
>>
'87er here

Didn't have a lot of money as a family but I saved up enough allowance (several years worth) to get a PS1

Couldn't afford any games though, so aside from demo discs in OPM or other magazines the only games I played I rented

Emulators were the shit.

>>334288080
>Snes was 4th gen
Holy fuck. What's 1-3rd gen? What did i miss being cursed to be born in the early 1990's?
>>
>>334288080
I had a nes and smb 3 is still my all favourite game.
>>
>>334289668
>'87
>only played rented PS1 games
Are you my older brother?
>>
>>334289779
well of Snes was the 4th, you can guess what the 3rd was.
>>
I had a Genesis with one game. Sonic 1. played it up until 2003 or something
>>
I was born in 96 and started with a snes, I was always a generation behind because I was poor, I'm caught up now though
>>
>>334288740
Been here since 04, I was 13 then. I dunno why I'm still here...
>>
>>334289668

Well at least you had emulators. That sounds like suffering.
>>
I grew up playing SNES and Genesis games by proxy. Cousins' had them. Both are now casuals and don't like video games anymore. One of them only got into vidya because her neighbors did, and she thought they were cool so she acted like them. I got her little brother into video games. He used to like Nintendo, now he's Sony fan who is obsessed with Dark Souls.
>>
>>334288080
SNEs was my first system
Born in 1986, I have my own business specifically to have time to play vidya.
While modern graphics are amazing, I must say it is all wasted with shitty stories and bad gameplay mostly.
However a few games are good, so those make me feel some kind of hope.
I also stay here cause have nowhere else to go, I am too cynical and anti social to go to forums, plus I am impatient as fuck to await for replies, people here reply in minutes.
>>
>>334288080
I never can remember what gen is what and I never trust OP pics to be related. I started on Atari briefly then NES.

Is...is that your only question?
>>
>>334290532

No. This is going to be an interview.

Would you say most people can't be trusted?
When you start a project, do you always follow through or do you give up?
What is the accomplishment you're most proud of?
>>
>>334290532
Ah fuck forgot I had an atari 2600.
Man, I am old.
>>334290526
Is me if anybody gives a fuck
>>
>>334290329

It wasn't too bad, played lots of vidya at friends' houses before the PS1.
