My Pentium 120 MhZ playing Duke Nukem, Quake, Diablo, Red Alert. All my friends had 133 MhZ so was the underdog at LAN meetups ๐
Probably NES. I had Atari, Sega Genesis, and PC, then later Sega Game Great, GB Advance, and XBox, but NES was the most fun imo. I mostly only played Street Fighter on Genesis.
For my kids, it'll probably be PC. They love Minecraft, and haven't played on our Switch a ton.
Eaaaaasily the Dreamcast, even though I think I was the only person I knew that had one. I think I had:
Stellar lineup. I also loved my PlayStation.
N64. Apart from the usual suspects (Mario 64, Wave Race, Pilot Wings, Golden Eye, Dark Project), Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon still feels like I fever dreamed that crazy ass game up. It also had the only wrestling game I ever liked, but forgot the name.
PC. Still my favorite now.
I always was a PC gamer, but I loved the PSP, it was insane how good the PSP was back then. Now I have a Steam Deck and it's the best of both worlds, I would've loved having that kind of thing when I was a kid.
PC was all I had. Commander Keen and Duke Nukem (original, not 2 or 3D) were my go-to games for a long while.
MSDOS
I remember being like 5 years old and my grandfather (who built the PC for us and would later take me to computer shows) made a "cheat sheet" for me telling me how to "cd" etc in order to find and run my games
I had a copy of DOS for Dummies. super helpful, the official manual for MSDOS 5.0 was really dry/uninteresting
Master System because I'm special
OG Xbox. Fuck playing Halo in Split screen was fun.
And of course PC. Settlers 3, Counter Strike 1.6. amazing games all around
Commodore 64, as was style at the time. I have 4 different versions in my collection, and I still use them few times a week.
PS2... even though, during its last days, I had to stack half a set of encyclopedias on top to get it to run a game ๐ญ
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
