Old Gold Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I got many hours from my Gameboy pocket, so I'll say Nintendo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted November 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Atari 2600. Great console in my memory from playing it as an 8 year old, but I'm sure it would be utter shit if I played it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camie Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Mario 64 and Zelda 64 are two of the best platform games I've played.I had a NES first, then went on to the Megadrive(which I thought was superior to the SNES), then went back to Nintendo with N64 and then gave in to Sony's might and got the PS2.Was never really a big fan of the Gamecube but it did have some good games.

timson Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 I have been wanting to get a Neo Geo, but the prices of the cartridges just doesn't seem worth it (about 80 for a King of Fighters or Samurai Shodown)you're in luck, boot up your wii, head onto the shop channel and you'll get "king of fighters" there for 900 points = about 9ish?save yourself a few quid there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I think you are talking about Fatal Fury, which isn't the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rass Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Sega all the way, my progression went:Master System (with Alex Kidd built in - oh yes!)>Mega Drive>PSOne>PS2>PS3(Sould be noted that i was absolutely gutted as kid never to find the 32X or Mega CD under my xmas tree as a kid. Slightly less gutted in hindsight mind you.)Handhelds:Gamegear>PSPi believe there may be a bit of a theme in there.And being a Sega Boy my heart did sink a little when Mario + Sonic @ the Olympics was announced. Just for the fact all the trailers show the little podgy plumber holding his own in the 100m sprint against the supersonic hedgehog. I had him more down as a Shot Putt or Weightlifting kinda guy.

Red Neck Man Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Super Metroid for the SNES and Fantasy Land Dizzy for the Spectrum were my favourite games. There was a game similar to Metroid on the Speccy but I can't remember what it was called - awesome game.Oh and "How to be a complete bastard" for the Spectrum was ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Atari 2600. Great console in my memory from playing it as an 8 year old, but I'm sure it would be utter shit if I played it now.I still have my Atari2600 and it is the one pictured there on wikipedia with the wood panelling.Didnt like the look of the little black one.It still works and Choplifter is the best game on it.Jedi Arena is shithot too and you have to use a special controller to play it not the normal joystick.

Le Stu Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Probably Nintendo for consistently being great. Although, the Saturn is amazing if you get one with an import cart. It's like a real old school arcade machine! The Dreamcast was a very underrated machine also, I think. It's a pity that Sega are out of the game now.Other than that, my misspent youth went:Spectrum+2 > C64 > Atari ST > Amiga 500 > Amiga 1200 > Playstation > PC > PS2Amiga was definitely my fave!

Sam 45 Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 I think i love them both equally. Perhaps the megadrive is my favourite ever console. I've had:NESMaster SystemSNESMega DriveN64GamecubeWIIXbox 360Does anyone remember Quack shot on the Mega Drive, with Donald Duck? More importantly, has anyone in the world completed it?

Then they made a game with Mickey and Donald together, it was reet gud.It took me till about 2 years ago to complete Toejam & Earl like.
