Wow, just did some research, apparently there were more than 10 million computers in the U.S when the NES was out, never knew that.

Anyway...Scratch that, barely anybody had a PC during the NES / SNES era. I didn't have a computer until 2002, I don't know anybody that has a PC before 1990, but then again, I do live in the UK where computers probably weren't as popular outside of offices.

Anyway, I am sick to death of PC fanboys thinking that the PC is the reason gaming exists now, that isn't true.

I think you mean "PC fanboys thinking the PC is where all advancements in gaming happen" or something like that, right? 

...No? o.0

Either way, I think the PC recieves too much credit for its impact on the gaming industry.

Oh you mean like.... online play and FPS games?

Edit: I can name a whole bunch more those were just the first glaring ones.

Yes, PC started FPS and online games, but I wouldn't flaunt that as if it was a GOOD thing, especially when you look at the gaming industry now.

Yes, because consoles picked up on online play and FPS games. They were fine before they got on consoles. Interesting, huh?
