I was a Nintendo kid up until the Saturn... then I guess I was both...
but just FYI - there is a Legacy gaming board on gamespot.
Sega Kid had the Master System 2 then the MegaDrive 2 and finally the Dreamcast i loved everything SEGA!!! Never had the Saturn skipped that in favour of the PS1 and N64.
I'm not pro-nintendo as people like to think, i am pro-the best fun and most beautiful experiences. This generation the DS and PC are the best IMO. And the wii does have a special place for me because it was the embodiement of an insight that many people on here lack. Next generation it could all be different. We don't know, and that's part of the excitement :D I'm also very much pro freedom, acceptance and doing what brings us closest to our ideals, not what someone else tells us. So i can be against anti-piracy methods if they aren't absolutely perfect, against marketing methods if they are even a tiny bit deceiving, and against buying games that support a company that is leading us into a wrong direction. That doesn't mean i am against that specific company doing those things, just because i'm a fan of another company. No, regardless what company does those things, i simply disapprove. Some people on here find that hard to grasp so i thought i would clarify.
tho I appreciated and recongnized the greatness of nintendo, I liked going with the underdog especially since they made such awsome games. (people never game sega credit for being the first ones to truely usher in the age of 3d gaming)
Was Nintendo here, my first console was the NES entertainment pack whick included the system, two controllers, the orange light gun and Mario bros. with Duck hunt. (they don't bundle like this anymore). and since then:
Sega kid, only one on my block. I hated the look of NES games, felt Master system looked better. Finally fell off after Saturn, got a PS1, then 2, then Xbox.....
[QUOTE="locopatho"][QUOTE="killerfist"]I was both 8) I was one of the cool kids with a megadrive and a SNES. In my area at least, your kind were hated :P Haha, not me!:P Everyone came to my house to play games. Good times.
I was all 5... Atari2600 / Intellivision --->NES ---> Turbograhix-16 (awesomely underrated console in NA) , Sega Genesis --> Super Nintendo -- > PS1(no longer a kid at 19-20 years old in the ps1 era) For portables-- > Game and watch --> Gameboy original (first release on launch with Tetris) ---> Gamegear (with Sonic) -----------> psp2000(almost 2 decades later..lol And had a pc starting in the 80's with a 8088 IBM XT Clone, 256k ram CGA-4color
I was a Sega Genesis owner back in the day by accident, my parents got me this console without me even knowing but I am glad they did. I had a blast playing all the various game from Sonic, Shinobi, Street of Rage, Golden Axe, and other interesting title. I didn't missed much since I had access to both console.
I owned everything Nintendo until the Playstation got released. Alot of my friends had Sega systems so I got to play them as well just never really cared for them as much as Nintendo.
Both, but mostly Nintendo. For Nintendo I had the NES, SNES, Gameboy and N64, for Sega I had the Genesis, Dreamcast and Game Gear. I got the N64 because I wanted to play Mario 64 and Zelda OOT, butI remember whenI tried Sonic Adventure on a Dreamcast ata Toys R Us,I couldn't resist because that game was so fun.
I was a Nintendo kid first (NES, then SNES), but I sold my SNES and got a Genesis and Sega CD, then I got a Playstation which is probably the system I had the most fun on, then I got a Dreamcast which was awesome then I got a PS2, near the end of last gen I had all three systems. This gen I am Sony & Nintendo with a PS3 and PSP and a Wii and DS. I had a 360 but sold it and basically dislike Microsoft as a company (I even got a Macbook and am primarily an Apple Computer user now.)
When the two companies were really going at each other, I owned a Genesis. I always liked SNES games though. I didn't own multiple systems from a gen because of my family's financial situation, not because of fanboyism or anything like that.
I've had all Nintendo consoles from the SNES so that makes me a Nintendo kid.ForsakenWicked
me too8) i remember me and this kid in my class alwas arguing on which was better. I won most of the time, partly because of super mario world, and partly because only 2 kids in my class owned a genesis8)
I started with an Atari 2600. Then I was a Nintendo Kid with the NES but I jumped ship and went to the Sega Genesis with the Sega CD add on. Went back to Nintendo for the N64. Stuck with Nintendo, getting the Gamecube first last gen, followed by the PS2. This Gen I got the Wii first followed by the PS3. Next gen I will get Nintendos console first, followed by Sonys console. Though if Apple jumps into the game it will be Apple second and Sony 3rd. Note the lack of any and all M$ consoles. Never getting one of those
I had the SNES, my sister had the Genesis. I spent much of my time trying to play Sonic, but then once I had Mortal Kombat II and Killer Instinct, I was playing those and Super Mario World a lot. And Super Mario Kart was a nice plus too. There was also a Goofy and Max game I played... if only I knew the name of it... and finally, I fell in love with a game called EVO - The Search For Eden.
