My first computer was a 16bit Atari ST
Not really. The last heavy dutygame like that I played was Call of Duty 1 and 2 online. I enjoyed them but frankly I got tired of all the 16 year olds with faster reflexes kicking my ass. Also it was turning into a black hole of time which I didn't have.

It's the rich kids and then again, there's the internet with ROMs and emulators. What i find interesting is, that you already have 24 games for the Wii, which would mean that Nintendos strategy in making games for mature taste works, but also the 33 GC games is really interesting. @People: What's odd about older people playing video games? My grandfather decided to learn how to use computer at the age of 80 and after he learned, all he did with it was play Solitaire and Spider. |
When looking at the game library, some I buy mostly for myself and some I buy mostly to play with my grandson. Plus SSM and WK are in addition very popular with the kids in the neighborhood (and me)
| Slimebeast said: Grampy, I see you have a lot of FPS for the Wii. Like Blazing Angels, MOH: heroes 2, MoH Vanguard, CoD 3. Do you play them a lot (or are they for some other family member)? And do you like FPSs? |
26, like... a few hundred games. Including Atari 2600... and my favorite.
The Bally Astrocade.
| dtewi said: Let me rephrase... How are you still interested and physcally able to play games like WiiFit at 62? |
Because not all old people are feeble, just like not all young people are pompous.
I had nes,genesis,snes,gameboy, gba, ps1,ps2,xbox,gc,ds,dsl,wii,psp,pc,segacd, segasaturn, and dreamcast.
if you ask me how many game I have for all these system include roms, pirated and legit ones, my estimate probably around 2k to 5k range with about 200-300 legits ones, and like 90% of those game I just spend 10-20mins on it or some never been touch.
I'm 25, I'm 6'2", and I have about 300 NES games. Other than NES games, I haven't counted. And I have more Game Boys than you have consoles.
I'm 19, 5' 10", I like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.
On topic: Yes grampy, you may be the oldest person on this site, but kudos to you for it, I know alot of people who don't play games because they believe themselves to be too old (and they are around half your age).
I like that song ; ; lol^^
I'm 16, 6' 0" (why did height get involved in this thread? lol) and I've had a NES, SNES, 64, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, GC, Xbox, Pretty much every game boy other than the pocket and micro, and a Wii^^;;
I actually haven't counted, but I've had at least 250 games I'm sure^^; the most hours spent on one (that counted hours) being 250 on Disgaea^^; twice >.> and on Disgaea 2. and probably like, 500 hours or more on Earthbound >.> I dunno, I play too much.
Edit: Also, that's pretty cool you still play^^ I respect you a lot for that, and I hope I'm the same way when I get older^^
Edit: errr... I just remembered, if it counts, I've spent the most time on FFXI, with my play time being like 3 months (1 and a half were probably being left on all night) and the other half being played over a course of 3 years^^; man, I was addicted ; ;
The Mother 3 Fan Translation is done! Everyone go get it right now! (Mother3.fobby.net)
Play Earthbound for the SNES ; ; Do it, it's awesome!
