It just blows my mind that there are people who were born after Pokemon's release that have graduated from High School. Shit is weird.
Final Fantasy IX is the best one

I prob should've also mentioned the Dreamcast will be 15 & the NES will be 30 this yr. This might hit home a bit more to me as I bought a DC right around launch & a PS2 yrs later.

Thanks for the link GSX.
I still remember the day that I picked up my Dreamcast at launch on 9/9/99.

I need a moment. :cry: :cry: :cry:

None of this bothers me, because I have the perpetual mindframe of a 12-year-old. :mrgreen:

The bar is set pretty low there.
Just don't mutilate an attempt at making a game and call it Zelda and I'm sure you'll come out on top :wink: .

Dang, 30 years for the NES huh? I still remember the first time that I saw it, I was in awe.

I remember that I sucked horribly at Super Mario Bros., but damn if I didn't give it hell! Sometimes the nostalgia triggers in me the reason why I collect retro in the first place.

I can't wait until I can share this sort of memory with my kiddo. (It will be something like, PS4 memories, LOL, but still :lol: )

Check out: Burn Cycle, Apprentice, 7th Guest, Mutant Rampage, Tetris port, Namco Arcade Classics, Axis & Allies, Defender of the Crown, & Lemmings.

While the system is mostly crap, just named 9 decent titles off hand. Sure Im missing a few. Could be worse... could be the year of the Pippin :)

Lol @ 9/9/99... I mowed MANYYYY yards to get my DC.
