Well I assume you mean Elite, though it was used with more. Hooray for silly copy protection. Hope you aren't rich enough to have a larger monitor.CRTGAMER wrote: How about this, guess the game:
Still to this day, every once in awhile, I'll hear someone call a controller a paddle. It makes me laugh not really in a mocking way (it IS an old school term), I just can't believe some people still call them that.pvt_awol wrote:Hobie-wan wrote:

I most certainly did. But the worst offense to me in my childhood, was how every adult I knew called them "Engine Turtles."
"You want some Engine Turtles for Christmas?" I was like, "Nah, just some shotgun shells so I can shoot myself in the face for the way that everyone says ninja turtles. Thanks."
What about when adults used to call Nintendo and Genesis cartridges "tapes". Ugghhh, I used to get so annoyed. Now, I do it to mock flea market vendors (in a silly way, not to be rude or condesending). I'll walk up to a vendor and ask if they have Intendoh Tapes.Snatch1414 wrote:Still to this day, every once in awhile, I'll hear someone call a controller a paddle.

when I was little, probably 3 or 4 years old, I loved the ninja turtles but couldn't properly pronounce the name, I just called them the Inja Turtles.pvt_awol wrote:Hobie-wan wrote:
