No discussion is needed. Being born later means you can play all of the good while not having to lean on piles of shit to hold you over until the next good titles shows up.

Being born in the early 2000's might suck though. Prices of decent games are sky high and there is so much high quality content you might never make it all the way through everything worth playing.

Man, you're barely over 30. Just because this sire is full of 20 year olds doesn't make you old. Tbqh, most retro gamers seem to be 30+.

So you're saying we should have been born before Pong? Tbqh, it would have been fun to be a teen in the NES days and an adult in future gens. It seems more fun being an adult gamer than a kid one. The experiences are different and you have the income to buy what you want, and you can buy M games.That would mean I'd be in my 40s but that's not too old.

Exidy is a weird company that made some edgy ass games. I wish there was a documentary on them.

Chiller is a game that I find arguably more disturbing than other games that got controversy. Off topic, but I never get the chance to talk about Exidy here.

>There was a story on 60 Minutes looking at the dangers of the game's psychological impact. The National Safety Council said Death Race was "sick and morbid". These concerns, and the first ever protests over the content of a video game, prompted further coverage in outlets like the National Enquirer and the NBC's Weekend Show.

>A former employee of developers Exidy says "The end result was that Exidy sales doubled or quadrupled," following Death Race's controversial exposure, while former Exidy president Pete Kauffman says ""It seemed like the more controversy…the more our sales increased."

Decades before rockstar games was even founded this game had the same effect on the industry.

Amazingly both death race and chiller got NES ports.

Chiller was 100% pure torture porn. Half naked people in bondage and you shoot the levers to grind them up, pull them apart, or crush them. Or you just shoot them and splatter gore all over.

'98 dude here. I had a PS1, N64, and GBC back in the (or, at least my) day, along with plenty of "plug n play" joysticks (one with Atari 2600 games, a few with Namco arcade games) and old game compilations for the newer systems (Sonic Mega Collection Plus on PS2, Konami Arcade Advanced and Namco Museum on GBA). Nowadays I mostly emulate, not because I think it's better, but because I'm too cheap/poor to buy flashcarts/modchips/etc.

86.

This is honestly a tough call. When I was a kid on my NES I mostly played Mario, Duck Hunt, and arcade ports. Wasn't until we got a Genesis and Dos computer in 94 that I started to branch out.

I guess I'll just say Zelda because that's the only one I played that I still like. It's far from my favorite game from that era, though.

I owned and actually beat deadly towers back in the day and I can say with certainty that no one actually loved that game. It's existance offended us but the manual that it came with promised there was something more if you went just a little deeper.

Deadly towers is an obstacle to be overcome and nothing more. We didn't know what "masochist" meant because we were in grade 6 and household internet was a decade away, but by enduring that game it proved that we were masochists.

On the other hand, emulation is easier than ever and companies are starting to offer ways to play some older games easily and cheaply, like the PS Classics or Nintendo's Virtual Console. They're hardly perfect solutions but they do open up a lot of great games to a newer audience with a very low barrier for entry.

Wow, the average age of people here explains a lot why this board is usually more mature than usual by 4chan's standards.

Oh, and 1991.
Street Fighter II.

1998 here. Resident Evil 2, Parasite Eve, Star Ocean Second Story, Metal Gear Solid, Mega Man Legends, and Suikoden 2 will always have a big place in my heart, but for me none of them can match the impact Xenogears had on me

18 years old here. My uncle was an avid classic game collector and I was the closest to him growing up so naturally I played a lot of games with him. I ended up inheriting all his consoles and games after he sadly passed away of a heart attack 2 Christmases ago, though I had also gotten into emulation as early as late elementary school or early middle school (can't remember)

For me classic gaming is my life hobby, I feel more at home playing retro games with colourful worlds than almost all of the shit made nowadays.
