gaming What was the popular and new gaming console when you were a kid?

[Cupcake Ice Cream 436]

I thought it might be a fun way to show our age

 

So basically what you do is think back when you were a kid...like 10 or less and tell us what new gaming system was out when you were a youngen

 

so I will show my ancientness...when I was a kid it was the Intellivision and then the Atari 2600 was big. Then the NES followed by the Atari 7800

 

I couldn't get enough of Burgertime and Circus

[Twilight Sparkle ✨ 8,520]

The GameBoy Color was all the rage when I was a "kid". I begged my mom to get me one for years. The Nintendo DSi was out by the time she considered me old enough to own a portable handheld.

This, right here.

 

 

I was eight when I got one for Christmas.

[Titan Rising 2,156]

Yup gameboy color. I played NES and SNES before it, but pokemon and gameboy color were the first game/system that I had to get simply because everyone else had it.

[spas-ticShotty 3,582]

PS3, Xbox 360, Wii.

[Lightning Bolt 65]

The Xbox.(First one)

[My little pwny 1,390]

Yeah what everyone else said about the gameboy. Plus the 64 was pretfy sick. When the ps2 came out i remember all my friends falling in love with it haha

[False Perception 482]

I guess...I don't know. I'm only 19, I still kinda consider myself a kid... last gen? I don't think there was any one console that reigned supreme...

[Twiliscael 3,958]

Gameboy Advance and Gamecube. I was a firm believer in the Gameboy color and N64, however eventually I had to conform because of all the Pokemans that came to those systems.

Got a GBA SP, but most of the games I played were GB/GBC games. Probably because there's a lot of good ones (Pokemon G1/2, Zelda series to an extent, etc.) I also played a lot of those NES/SNES games that were ported to the GBA, specifically A Link to the Past, Donkey Kong Country series, Zelda I/II, Ice Climbers, Metroid, the list goes on. I technically was living in the GBA age, but at heart I was a 3rd-gen/4th-gen console era gamer.

[WildCard 1,037]

Nintendo 64. Still love it

[nonee 130]

The SNES and then N64 later xP Yay the 90's lol

[Radiance64 7,051]

N64 and GBC seemed popular to my 6 year old self, that's why I got both...

[SonOfTheNorthe 412]

Game Boy Color, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis. Sonic the Hedgehog and Zombies Ate My Neighbors was fun.

[Glaceon 793]

PS 1

[Veiled Enigma 389]

The original Xbox, and PS2. Could never get enough Halo: Combat Evolved, or Armored Core 3.

[Dragonshy 2,305]

Original Xbox and the Gameboy.

When I was a kid, in my school it was awesome to have the N64

This, technically.

 

But then, I was a PC gamer as a kid. I played some of the more awesome fun stuff. Let me throw up some things you little kids have never heard of:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just a small sampling.

[SrFrog 926]

The PSOne baby, though technically the NES was the first console I ever played. Good times, good times.

When you say 'kid' what age are you referring too? ~

[Kapi 213]

I guess the Super Nintendo.. I had a Genesis, which I really... really... really loved. We sold it, then my parents got the Super Nintendo. The only 2 games I liiked were Mario Paint and Super Mario World. (Later, Star fox too).

 

I hada Master System too. Played this really cool flight game on it. But that was released before I was born.
