I didn’t have it myself either (until years later), but a neighbor down the street did. I remember all the kids in the neighborhood playing on that system.

I still get that with anything that I don’t buy from Amazon, also game releases that I’ve been following for a while (currently sitting patiently until the Elden Ring DLC finally drops for my time zone).

God I love the retro gaming community.

A little while after the Gameboy color came out, I was able to get my hands on a rechargeable battery pack, and I remember thinking that was an absolute game changer.

I don’t miss the days of everything running on batteries.

No, it played normal sized CDs. The GameCube used these weird mini discs.

Yep! Here’s the reference for anyone who hasn’t played or doesn’t remember it from Mario 64.

Alright, crossposted!

(If you use the Voyager app, it makes crossposting really easy)

My current htc vive gaming setup is: in a box, on a dusty shelf.

Wow, I didn’t expect it to work, but I used the built in image search thing on my phone, circled the blurry object in question, and it found a match:

Hey, my imagination was pretty good in 1990!

I don’t use mods much, so I’m purely guessing, but could that be the downloads?

Wow, I didn’t know they added podcasts to Skyrim too!

Ubisoft is just hot garbage.

Ok, so I found a novelty account on X/Twitter (“Quest 64 Official”) that has been spreading Quest 64 memes and think it’s hilarious, so I’ve been reposting them to Lemmy.

(There will almost certainly be more)

I like to think I’m immune to anything people could post from my time on the early days of the internet, but yeah, it’s like a sea of totally unfiltered opinions/content over there. There are still a lot of good fandoms, memes, news, etc., but you have to also scroll through conspiracies, political astroturfing, and every hateful thought that someone decided to write today.

Fortunately it’s not the only place I casually scour for content for the fediverse.

I think you’re right. I’ve played the arcade version too, and it’s truly brutal, but most of my attempts have been on my NES. I don’t know how similar the port is.

Oh good! That’s awesome to hear. I think I might even own them from some bundle in steam, but I just haven’t gotten around to playing them.
