Skyviper 1,101 Posted September 8, 2014 Saw this video .. though it makes feel old it makes me feel proud that I'm a pioneer gamer. Am I the only one? This video brings back good memories ... and then a crap load of bad ones. ... It also makes me want to go hunt down the rom for this. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caesar 305 Posted September 9, 2014 That makes me depressed. Especially with the Atari I've got sitting in the other room that I still use more than my 360...from 1977... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caesar 305 Posted September 9, 2014 *clears throught* I got this in my closet... let me check it ... yep still works. Beauty! Now THAT would be funny as hell to watch a modern teen try to play. "What does it play?" "Pong." "And?" "More Pong..." Last Christmas I visited a good friend of mine; they had me over as I had just arrived on station, and he and his wife have two younger kids. I brought my Atari over 'cause we were talking about some of the old systems from our youth back at Thule and he couldn't believe I still had a VCS up and running. So, we hooked it up and got some old games going. Funny thing is, his daughter, 5 at the time, wasn't old enough to care about graphics or anything more than gameplay. She was just as intrigued by the old system as any new one she had seen. Hell, the longest I've ever played a game straight was an Atari game: Kaboom! by Activision. That whole game is just 2kb of code. As they say, it's all about the gameplay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You make me feel even older : When NES was released, I was proud to have played Atari VCS ! I remember how much I loved "The Empire Strike Back" game cartridge !!! Still, I find the reaction of those tenns very good Edited September 9, 2014 by jeanba Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
