Cool.
I never played with Pokemon cards though, as I had an older and wiser brother who showed me that Magic the Gathering was so much better

MtG! My first and truest CCG love! To this day I'm just happy to play, I suck horribly at it, but I love to play.
 
I suck at it too but it's tons of fun :D

I have never played, but have read about it. I've tried my hand at the Kongregate version and liked it.

I'm sure anything you suck at is fun, but I'm sure you would enjoy what I might be sucking at more.

(Good? ;))

Up until we got the Xbox I even had that little robot that went with the system to play Gyromite (I think I got that name right).

lol I'm afraid I missed that one though sounds about as good as Dreamcast was.

Gyromite is indeed correct ... I think. lol I played that once, but the little guy had some wear and tear and did not work perfectly.

I will confess ... I have played on a Power Pad before, the Wii's distant cousin no one talks about.

Agreed, Dreamcast/TG were about the same in terms of longevity and quality, though some people still love their Dreamcast. To each their own.

As long as you promise not to insult the crappy graphics card in my laptop, that could be changed ;)

I never insult another person's tech. All have sinned at the hands of a laptop's Intel graphics card.

Yea, at the time we finally traded in the old stuff we had like 3 NES systems and each with whatever special thing came out at the time they were released like the robot.

I can't remember why we initially bought the DC, but I know I held onto it because of the game Dragon Riders of Pern. A game created after my favorite book series at the time, and I don't think I ever once actually played the game, lol.

Did you have the SNES scope/gun thing that was a bazooka? I never played around with that. A Virtual Boy, and wow am I tossing out all my Nintendo knowledge today, was also something I never played. The best had to be the Zapper and that laughing dog we all have subsequently found Flash games for and mutilated to a bloody, quivering mass of entrails yelling, "LAUGH AT ME NOW, BITCH!" ... Goosefrabba ... Goosefrabba ... lol

I took one look at the DC controller and just went ... yeah, no ... and moved on. ;)

Nope, never had that. I did want a Virtual boy, but never got one. I was reserved to playing the display at Toys R Us.

Our SNES was actually my Mom's anniversary present to my Dad back then, lol.

Hehe, see I've never turned down a big controller ;)

You had awesome parents. :)

I think you meant to say big joystick, since I don't see you liking any one big into controlling you. ;)

You don't know the half of it, there was a reason the boys all like hanging out at my house in high school and it wasn't cause of Mario and Yoshi over there <----

Ah, good point :)
 
Parents aren't gamers nor geeks so they tried...

I got a "Nintentron 3000" (for real, a chinese thingie that ran a very, very f***ed up version of Mario) for a while. They even tried playing with me, but it just wasn't in them. Can't blame them.

Then I got with the years a NES, SNES, PS1,PS2... then I bought my own Wii + PS3 + 360. And got all of them stolen. Almost lost my sanity there... Dusted an old PS that kind of works, re bought Wii + PS3 + 360 and looking for a good deal in Mexico to buy a PS2.
 
As much as I enjoy the mind-blowing graphics and gameplay in the modern games on the PS3, 360 and what have you....I would really love to get my hands on the old 16-bit Sega system and play some good old Sonic :)
 
I guess I'm not as nerdy as I thought I was ... I was always the nerdy jock in school but after reading this tread my dream of hooking up with a nerdy girl with sexy frames seems impossible .... Guess its off to play madden and fps with the other douchebags

Nothing is impossible

I completely agree. Oldschool gaming is just the best. I love the terrible sounds and graphics, it's what makes the games awesome :D
 
I used to play Galaxians for hours at the arcade by the beach when I was little. I can still remember the sounds and the music:)

Hi again btw:rose:
 
I'm seriously nerd about Middle Earth, to the point of having several tattoos in Elvish runes (I even got Morias's Gate tattooed on my shoulder) but not to the point to dress like a hobbit to go to watch the movies..

I'm crazy about every book Stephen King wrote, and mildly nerd about Tarantino's movies.

What else... oh, yes. The Fallout series (though I've only played Fallout 3 and New Vegas)
 
So you're saying there a chance !
Any suggestions tips ,etc

She-nerds are like every other women and want to be treated as such, you just have to find them in other (geeky) places and talk nerdy to them (Sorry for stealing your line, CarnageSIS)
