I had one of those when I lived in Poland many many years ago. At the same time we owned an arcade so as a child I spent all my time playing games lol.

I did realise Nintendo's pressence wasn't that big (as I was very young when I left).

All I will say is DAMN I am glad NIntendo is a decent size in Australia and I got to enjoy the SNES and N64.

Yeah, everyone had one of those :) But an arcade, that must've been cool! BTW. Which city did you live in?

Unfortunately we totally skipped SNES, N64 and Gamecube (I've actually never even seen these consoles with my own eyes!), since the company that gave us the Pegasus decided to market the Sega Saturn next, and we all know how that went... But at least I could play some Sonic :)

 

When it comes to PS4. I hope Sony releases a strong console. They should target the pricepoint of 400-450 for the cheapest console, which should come without a HDD. Considering they can invest the additional 100$ in price, the cost of the Wii U Gamepad (costly from what I've heard) and have one additional year in which prices of electronics will inevitably go down slightly, they should be able to release quite a powerful machine.

I lived in Chojnow (north west of Legnica, maybe 20km away), about 100kms or so from Wroclaw, assuming I remembered the distancers correctly lol. It is a small town I guess you can call it haha. Arcade was fun cause instead of preschool i spent my whole day playing games for free haha. Then I had to go to school :(

Too bad, SNES and N64, somewhat gamecube had some amazing games.

Personally I would love a PS4 to be in that pirce range if hardware is good step up, but I don't knwo if the general public will agree. Always amazes me how the general public are happy to get the new iphone every 6 months but don't want to spend on a high spec one of cost for a video game consoel which will last them 5-10years.
