Goodie Thursday: Game Boy To Game Man

The family's coleco (I think that's what it was called) I remember playing donkey kong and qbert and that's about it. Good times tho

Black GameBoy Pocket. the screen fell off after i threw it on the lawn in the garden out of rage from playing Donkey Kong.

My parents had some kind of Atari when I was very young. I just remember it as THE Atari. I quickly remember it being sold at a garage sale and them getting an NES with a duckhunt/mario combo game. Then later on I got a GB and even had a hard case for it that looked like a giant GB.

Still have the GB and it's case.

I had it too. My nephew has it now. He's so going to be a gamer, it's awesome.

My first console was a Sears Tele-Games Pinball Breakaway 1977 (made by Atari) my older sister bought it for herself, but I took it over. No cartages just a choice switch, Breakaway, and Pinball. One controller only that was a small plastic knob. The Pinball was weird, so I played the hell out of Breakaway, a Breakout clone. That was over thirty years ago.

I remember those cheap LCD one game AA battery games! I had double dragon, mortal kombat, and mega man 2. Bad thing with those is that when your a kid you leave the batteries in them. Still I am going to see if my old man saved one!

Genesis was my first system. Gamegear w/battery pack was my first hand held. Later on I sold it for a blue gameboy pocket to play pokemon.

My first was nintendo but i dont remember getting it (born in '86), but the first one i was excited to get was my Sega Genesis... I pretty much did explode when Playstation came out though lol, just the demo disc that came with it was enough to make me pee myself...i remember it had Wipeout , Twisted Metal, and Loaded on it. It was the time i was most impressed with new technology :P

That demo disc ruled! I would have over a dozen friends fighting over who got next in TM you only had the arena level but you could use all the vehicles! I wish I was so easily amused nowadays.

Pokemon? Still worth firing up that on an original game boy every now and then.

My dad had an NES that I played the **** out of. My older brother an I would play games together, and if I beat him, he would get super pissed and we'd fight. The first system I personally owned (or co-owned with my brother) was a Genesis. I couldn't even tell you how many hours and birthday dollars got sunk into that thing. I loved it, probably more than I loved my brother.

If I could go and show myself any Heavy Rain or Metal Gear 4, or any game in 3D, I'm pretty sure my little brain would melt.

Atari 2600, fine wood grain trim, and joysticks that kinda smelled like they were rotting. My father got it from a friend of his that was always getting the newest tech. An old hand me down but still, the seed had been planted. Years later got an old used Commodore 64 from same friend, it was on its last legs but I did get more than a year out of it. A spoiled child of the early 80s.
