i just bought a DS about a week ago and im havin loads of fun...the last game boy i ever had was the old gameboy color lol.

but i remember when i was like 8 or 9 me and my friends in the neighbourg hood would gather up on one of our balcony and play together...comparing witch pokemon we catch , play mario , trade games (since no one had a job to buy many so we would rarely have the same games...beside pokemon).

man to do this again...im now 19....and if id ever do that again with the old bunch well i dont think ppl would think were cool lol.

but damn i miss those hot summer days...catchin em all, saving peach ,kickings old school ryu's ass or just saving the world.

i trade a whole load of stuff just to pass on another time like that...no care in the world besides your gameboy and hearing your mom scream "Dinners ready!!!".

not tell me u dont miss those.....

The DS is the first handheld I have ever owned. Some of the games give me memores of the SNES, such as the Yoshi's Island 2. Other games like Residnet Evil give me memories of the PS1. I have got some GBA games that I play on my DS, which also give me memories of the NES and SNES, such as Donkey Kong 3:)

Yeah, I have the same kind of memories. The only thing I can say is that this will never happen again. You'll probably notice that getting new memorie with the actual games is probably the best thing to do. This way you'll be able to say the same things in a few years...

I remember borrowing one of the original, big clunky GameBoys from one of my friends in grade school and playing Super Mario Land.

The thing I remember about those old days, really, even up to the N64 days, was never once considering things like the gaming industry in general, sales, and "what's better than what" arguments, or even checking reviews. It was all about the games. And if a company failed, they failed. Who cares? More games are on their way. And if one sucked, you waited for the next one.

Those were the days, I guess. But once you leave those behind...well, so much for that! ;)

Ahhhhh yes. Few people had a GB at my school so if you were looking for the guy who owned it you would just look for a massive moving crowd of people. Then they banned GBs at school. We would set up little battle stations for pokemon. So we couldnt see each others moves. Now you can be in another room and battle. Even the other side of the world. Oh well.

Even thought I'm 14, when I was littler, around 8 or 9 at recess some people would take out there game-boy colors and play Pokemon, I played, I sucked but it was still fun. We all collected yugio cards but never knew how to play lol. I still play Pokemon but I don't collect yugio cards lol.

Yeah, I know what you mean, I used to do all that stuff too...I'm almost 18, and I play my DS a lot. I barely bought it like 2 weeks ago though. It doesnt revive the old days, but it definately does bring a new sense into it. Me and my friends, we mix up the old days with a more modern grown up twist. For example we take advantage of the wireless and do pictocha and all that fun stuff. I work full time and all that good stuff, but the DS is probably one of the only things that keeps me a kid at heart. I cant wait to test out the pictochat while in school this year in a class and use it as a texting device with other friends. Muhahaha!

Well, whenever I "miss those days", I just get my DS out and start playing. There's still hot summer days, and there's still a lot of Pokemons to catch. And please, don't let the people get to you!

Nice... I really like this post, starts a lot of memories. Gets me thinking of the time i rented a Nintendo at the local gas-station(yes you could do that back then) the old golden NES cartridge that came with the adventures of Link( or was it the first zelda that was golden.. can't remember)... in general this just makes me think i'm old.. hehe, nah thanks for the walk down memory lane.

Wow, none of the people on my street had a Gameboy but me. We wern't allowed to bring our Gameboys to school, so I never knew the joys of trading with lots of people and battling them. I only have one time I remember trading things, my friend let me borrow his copy of Pokemon: TCG and before that we traded pokemon on Red Yellow and Blue. THose were the good ol' days, but thanks to the Wi-Fi of the DS, some of those memories are coming back, and I love it when they do.

Dude I suggest you buy a famiclone system. You can buy one from amazon.com just go to it and look up FC twin system, it plays NES and SNES games, I just got one for $40 and it's pretty good.
