Best Old School Gaming Console

PlayStation Posted by JimmyJamez

PlayStation made a gamer out of me, and I know a lot of you have the same story. Weren't those days great, back when PlayStation was awesome without question?

I was always a HUGE Nintendo fanboy, it will always have my heart. But I remember buying the PlayStation the first day it came out. It got a lot of use, but never got the love the Nintendo had.

Man, if I was any older, I'd be John McCain! Original Nintendo, man, can't go wrong there.

Ummmmmm, how could you forget Atari!? Super NES trumps NES just by the fact that it had Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball!!

I think Frogger and Pitfall were the two best Atari 2600 games.

Sega Genesis Posted by JimmyJamez

This was my very first system. I can't say much for it except Sonic, but, man, were those old Sonic games awesome, or what?

I don't know what it was, but for some reason Genesis games never seemed as fun as Super Nintendo games.

Sega Game Gear Added by westonwicks

I know Game Boy lead the way but all the ballers back in the day had the Game Gear with the color screen. ($149.99 versus $109.99 for the Game Boy)

As with the other systems Sega put out, the main problem was the games weren't very fun. I bought this system very soon after it was released and loved the fact that it was color. But, I couldn't find any games that were fun for more than 5 minutes.

Virtual Boy Added by westonwicks

Nintendo actually made this ahead of the curve video game console. If they could have only figured out a way to play these games without sticking your head onto what looks to be binoculars it may have been a hit! At least they gave it the old college try and spent millions of dollars developing this console.

I really loved the virtual boy because everything looked 3D. The tennis game that was included with it was really awesome. There were two major problems with this system which I attribute to it's death. First, the screen was entirely red which makes games a little less interesting. Second, I got a bad headache everytime I played...which I guess was the norm for everyone.

Yea, waaay ahead of it's time. I wanted to get one really bad just because it was so futuristic. Got to love Nintendo for continuing to innovate!
