you know 9inch, you can still play those games on your computer and for free. But it's illegal and I'm sure not allowed to discuss on this board. So pm me if you must know! Zelda was the shit! As was Streetfighter...awsome games for their time!

Got my start playing Contra on the NES, but I was too young to appreciate it. So After awhile, moved onto Mario for SNES - and never looked back. Shortly thereafter, I got into SF2, and Final Fantasy 4 - So, the super nintendo pretty much set up my future love of fighting and RPG games.

 

[PILLOW]

way too long lol. all that money on systems and games....uuugh.

 

[smallville206]

Since Pong, but really heavy since the Atari 2600. I really cannot envision the day I will ever lose interest in playing video games. I don't play them as much as I did years ago, but I am still a game freak.

Just after getting out of nappies.

 

[crimson joe]

As far back as I can remember. Which would be around 88 or 89. I'll say 89. That's when I first got an Atari. I was 5 and I'm 22 now. That would be 17 years.

 

[smallville206]

Started with Pong (I'm 35). I've never gone through a period where I didn't play video games.

 

[Roughneck]

Since video games were "born"

 

[drdeath67]

Yep me too! Pong...what a joke by todays standards, huh Roughneck?

 

[Legzman]

You have to respect pong, as that was the great granddaddy of all other video games...here's to pong! :glugglug: :hatsoff:

 

[Dootifull]

I really don't remember when I started playing video games. I'll say that I started when I was 4, which means 17 years. I had a regular Nintendo (supposedly my dad's, but he never used it).

 

[woy]

Since I was 3 years old, which would make it 19 years. I first gamed on the Coleco Vision.

 

[paramedic198020]
