And I really love the older games from nes and snes. But I just got the SSBB demos of them but the 40 seconds F-Zero were just...wow. Wii virtual console? It'll give you more than 40 seconds at least.

I'm telling you that you should buy your favorite games on the virtual console so you get more than 40 seconds. got that?

D: Uh...uh....So the other day when organizing my game consoles and games, I found all the cables that hook my NES up to my TV so I can play all the classic NES games I want on the original console.

Haha, sweet =D I still have all my old consoles as well, including my first Master System and Megadrive, a Game Gear, and later on I got into a phase where I started collecting weirdass pirate cartridges and/or rare prototypes, which led me to purchase an old NES and SNES as well. My house is practically a Nintendo/Sega museum save for most of the obscure/hard to find/failed systems, heh.

My earliest gaming experience (and probably the reason why I drew him for so many years) was Sonic The Hedgehog...BUT on the 'MASTER SYSTEM'. Which was awesome cus the game was built INTO the console : B I can still play that and still find it to be damn difficult but the music is still amazingly epic!

You can tell from the username, but not just Sonic, more or less Megadrive on the whole. Was my brother's although I got it in the end, and from there we moved onto Dreamcast but I played on a SNES at a friend's on all-stars. Favourite game that wasn't Sonic related was probably Golden Axe because damn was it hard but damn was it addictive, and I always got to be the dwarf. Sure the woman has better magic, but he has horns on his helmet.

When I was little I usualy watched my bros play, and when getting the chance play a game or two XD I don't remember what was the first game I actualy played but.. these were one of the first: PC: Doom ( yes, the pixellike one XD ), Rayman and a game I actualy finished was about a Merlin lookalike boy XD NES: Duckhunt. ( but we didn't own the console itself tho :C ) SNES: Mario( Various games of it ), Plok, Mario Paint, Pacman 2: Greatest Adventure ( Still Got It!! ) GameBoy: Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening Guess those are one of the first I played that I can remember

My oldest memory of playing a game must have been Mario 3 on the nes, played it at a nephew's. Tough back then I was mostly obsessed with cars.
Later I randomly won a contest and got a Gamegear as the prize, with Columns packed in. Me and my sister got to buy one game for it, and I picked outrun (ferrari on the cover and I was obsessed with cars, so duh.) My sis bought Tom and Jerry the movie (she was cat obsessed). That was not a very good game, yet it was because of that game that I got more interested in videogames and platforming games. Outrun quickly bored me, ironicly.
Then both SOnic's tv shows were on TV, I got hooked, and so the quest for Sonic games began.
Tough I only got about one new game a year after that, so despite owning a gamegear, and later a Nes in my youth, most of my fond memories are from PC games as well, Doom, Commander Keen, you know the drill. Always loved buying these Shareware cd's and just check out whatever random stuff there was on it. And since Sega's so nice to put most of their Megadrive and Saturn classics on the PC as well (like House of the dead and Sonic 3 and Knuckles and Golden Axe and Vectorman and Virtua cop 2), I still got to experience following it's history with the Megadrive and Saturn, despite never owning either system.
The first videogame console I really bought myself and was actually closely following the games for was the Dreamcast. Both for Sonic, and with Hhog's logic "everyone has a ninendo 64/Playstation so I can play at their house. But only I have a Dreamcast"

Then the following September we had our first Windows PC 'Windows 98' XD Heh. Our first windows was a Windows 95! 1 GB of storage space, and 100 Mega Hertz. And a 33k modem. XD Gee, those things were robust back then. That thing kept working for more than 10 years! o.o (needless to say, I could go on forever from back then, but I'd bore you all ^^; and I don't want that to happen)... Nah, don't worry, do tell! I pretended not to see it, but then one evening, when I was in bed and I woke up hearing unfamiliar bleepy music, I ran out of bed and caught my mom trying out Sonic for herself to see what it was like.... and then she let me play it for a bit as well until going Game Over. Which happened way too quick in my opinion back then ^^; Aww. ^_^ What a nice and amusing story! XD One vivid memory I have from the school playground was silly childhood logic like wanting to be Sonic, acting like him, running and jumping around... and if another kid wanted to play along... he'd be "SONIC 2!"; Y'know, as if the sequel's Sonic was a completely different one. XD Haha, I think I did something similar myself as a kid. Heh, funny how the other kid didn't just pick Tails instead. ^^ Funny - and nowadays people make drawings putting both classic and modern Sonic side-by-side having an argument, or something I could pick between either Sonic 3 packed in, or Sonic 2 and one other game. I went with the latter - for one, because I had a cheatbook with Megadrive cheats even before I had the MD itself Har har har, yeah Yeah ... when buying games for N64 or Game Boy (Advance), there always was an additional question other than if the game was any good - Is there anything interesting to hack in this game? Heh, that was even the reason why I bought Twilight Princess for Game Cube rather than for Wii, even though I already had one Since I knew the hacking community would come up with some crazy Action Replay codes for the Gamce Cube version - and they did! Yoshi story was the first game i was able to complete by myself (easy game anyway). Hehe, I own that one too :3 Was my N64 game number... 5, yeah ^^ Yoshi's probably my fav Mario-universe character. ^^; And oddly enough, this was the first game I started hacking on ... Remember how in the game you have to eat 30 fruit to advance to the next stage? Well, for XPloder64, there was a code to instantly gain 30 apples - but I wanted to see what happens if changed the code, I wanted to get 30 honey-melons! ...though instead, the fruit-o-meter was strangly distorted across the screen. That's when I got hyped, and realized not only codes I found on the internet or in videogame magazines could work. ...Got it MEMORIZED..? ;P "Eat the icecream before it melts, it's sweet, yet salty" SNES: Mario( Various games of it ), Plok, Mario Paint, Pacman 2: Greatest Adventure Heh, the third person who mentions this game here. As I said in my post on page 1, I played the game at a friend's place. Didn't remember the title untill Hhog posted it, and had some weird dejà vû when checking out the game on youtube. "Sorry, Plok, but your totally irrelevant piece of clothing is in another castle." xD

All I remember about our first computer that it had Windows 3.11, one level lower then 95. And no internet at all. And it took me over 2 years to gain the courage to try doing anything complicaed on the computer (like inserting a disc and opening it). At first I was to scared to click on anything else then the pre-insalled games folder.

Wait, I also remembered that before my family had the Amstrad Computer we used to have a BBC Micro computer which had all these educational games. One of these was 'Granny's Garden' and I was terrified of this game as a wee infant because of the scary witch face.
