blinded by nostalgia? Have you considered that he lived in a different place, with a different culture, habits, economic situation compared to you, so that's why he has a different perception about that time?

but, serious... Nintendo fans beating Sega fans on the street because they called them babies? What a time! This could be a movie. So veracious.

Beating them on the streets?  What are you talking about?  Stop being silly.

And why aren't you saying the same thing to him, then?  You'll sound awfully hypocritical otherwise.

LOL! I am sorry, language mistake. I am still learning english. i made a confusion with "ganging up". lol

Yes, i think the same can be applied to him, but he wasn't the one talking about being blinded by nostalgia. His historical testify seems very plausible, because i somewhat identify with him during the 90's, game rental was pretty big that time and games were so much expensive where i live, so you had to be absolutely right about your purchase.

And i only had contact with fanboyism accidentally accessing a gaming forum 4 years ago. I am yet to see fanboy wars IRL. So what you are saying is kinda funny to me.
