I still buy second hand games every now and then for the Dreamcast as it's still one of my favourite systems despite it's age.:cool:

Getting all vintage are we? :D

My 1st "games console" was a Commodore 64 (which was used exclusively for "California Games") which was then followed by a NES, Mega Drive, Playstation & Xbox. Over the years, I also had access to an Atari, Sega Master System, Commodore 128, SNES & Game Cube so I guess I wasn't very brand specific at all :D.

The one consistent type of game I owned on most of my consoles were Rasslin' Games :o but other than that; I hired a lot of games, played them & returned them.

But the one older game I still play today is Street Fighter 2 that I found as a stand-alone plug-in-&-play version from Big W/Target a couple of years ago. It's just an awesome game that I never seem to get tired of! :p

:DIf i was going to get nostalgiac on you i would start talking about the first space invader games that came out in the pinball parlours when I was 10 or 11 I think, back in 1977-78 which I would think would put a lot of you still in the swimming stage if you know what i mean;):p:D. I have a copy of Street Fighter turbo on my 3DO, yes another old banger of a console:o, that and Samurai Showdown where always mindless button slapping fun:cool:.

Yeah. Well I guess that the PC is way above that bunch so it wouldn't be fair :)

I don't suppose anyone here is interested in buying Dreamcast games and Sega Saturn system and games?

They are all also sequels (except for Wii fit and Target practise, which is more of a spin off).

I'm happy to keep playing Nintendo only titles on my Wii, as long as they keep the big titles coming (but then again I have the other consoles as well... :p )

You still thinking of getting a R4 for your DS? I saw an advertisment on Curtin campus. Seems a local dealer is selling it. Will check his phone number tomorrow if you're still after it.

This talk of our games consoles over the years has got me thinking about the Arcade games I used to put way too many coins into :D.

I know I'm from a different generation from most of you but I just luved:

Final Fight was just so awesome!!!

I'm actually still playing final fight. I just did the other night. Still can't crack the fifth level after many years.

I bought a crappy PS2 TMNT game purely to get the arcade Turtles in time game, and the NEs TMNT game was my first Wii retro game I downloaded.

And Daytona, oh how you ate my money back in high school. Still amazes me how good the game holds up (in terms of play, not graphics).
