Homage-Paying To The Consoles Of Old.

[FOTEPX]

I just remembered my childhood, and how many consoles have been forgotten. How many old memories have been washed away. This thread is to pay homage to all the consoles of the past, which are now forgotten. Write your favourite old console and a defining moment with your old console here, and it'll go in the obituaries, and be remembered forever.

Reminds me of my cousin's old Super Nintendo. Theme Park, Super Mario All Stars, Super Street Fighter II were the titles I remember playing! What adventures! Or at least working out how to put the cartridges in.

Ok. Super Nintendo Added.

R.I.P. Game boy advance

[martymidget]

The Sega Gamegear.

Playing sega megadrive games on a handheld. But the best part is, that these graphics were almost equal to that of a gameboy advance. 10 years earlier. Epic console.

Which is why my family still owns one. Sonic the hedgehog 1 and 2 ftw :D

[Enigm@]

R.IM.P. NES
Why must the good die young!?

[Natef]

RIP Nintendo Gamecube

I had so much fun playing Mario Party 6 and Star Wars: Rebel Strike on you. Best birthday ever. Me and my friend, playing Mario Party for hours, waiting for my dad to come home with a memory card.

RIP Original Playstation

Thank you uncle Joel for one of my first consoles. Spyro 2 & 3? Best ever!

RIP Playstation 2

Another gift from my uncle. SSX Tricky and Star Wars Battlefront II were the greatest.

I would say R.I.P dreamcast, but mine's very much alive and kicking and tends to eat peoples souls if they dare call it dead
