HAHAHAHA. Wow. Yeah....old school certainly isn't "old school", but kids these days refer to last week as old school.
Nintendo (the original version) was great, as was Atari (google it), which was actually OOLD SCHOOL.
The Xbox 360 is better than the Nintendo, because you can play your "old school" games and new titles. Not to mention, if you hold Left, then press X, X, RB, LB, Y, X, then hit start, you can Unlock the time machine function and visit any video game era you'd like! You have to insert a fork into the electrical outlet nearest the T.V. for it to work.

Oh, and Super Nintendo, for A Link to the Past, MK 3, and many, many other goodies.

I'm still blowing into my cartridges for my 8-bit nintendo. IT HELPS THE SYSTEM START THE GAMES BETTER!
SNES is referred to as the golden age of gaming.
But yes. NES was my first. I loved it. N64 old school. *snobbish scoff* noobs.
My brother broke my Sega a week after I got it. I had the biggest kidsadface ever.
While Super Nintendo had a bigger variety, Sega Genesis was the superior system. I mean, come on, there was a Sega Channel. That thing was light years ahead of its time.
All of these are crap. Nothing beats a nice day outdoors with some classic "i'm crushing your head" crushing.
I have a Sega Saturn t-shirt somewhere.
Not that I had a Sega Saturn.
Or a Sega anything, for that matter.
But my Commodore VIC-20 rawx you all.
This is why we can't have nice things.
My progression was:
Commodore VIC-21 (You want to talk classic games? I had to WRITE THE FUCKING PROGRAM for my first few games from a booK! We EARNED our entertainment back then, by guM!)
Atari 2600, yet I remained jealous of my friend's ColecoVision
NES came next, and lasted quite some time, and if you think SuperNES or N64 was better you're simply wrong.
I tried to one-up my friend's Sega Genesis by buying a TurboGrafX-16. I quickly mastered Bonk the Caveman and Splatterhouse, then the system collapsed and I switched to Genesis.
Sold that and switched to SuperNES.
Finally got wise and realized PC gaming is where it's at, and I do so miss the old days of making DOS boot disks to optimize my system for game performance.
Was your VIC-21 one better than my 20?
Writing games out in BASIC was a bitch and a half. The worst was, after you'd been tapping for 6+ hours, you'd go to lift the console off your lap and that fucking OFF switch was conveniently placed on the side of the box right where your hand might hit it when you picked the thing up. The horror. The horror.
(no drive to save to, you know.)
This is why we can't have nice things.
YES! FUCKING switch. But that was the best part of VIC21 is we had the huge fucking cassette tape drive to save work, and later, the 5 1/4 floppy.
I used to have hundreds of NES, SNES, and Sega cartridges before I became homeless. Now I take comfort in my emulators.
*Hugs computer, plays more Castlevania*
Youngster, you think that Mario Kart is "old school" Nintendo?
You know nothing! Good day sir!
