Do any of you own an older console which you still sometimes play for the heck of it? :) These consoles include the NES, N64, GBA, Atari 2600 and so on. If yes what games do you have with it, and which are your favorite?

 

 

 

I only own a GBA (classic one) that I've gotten when I was around ten. I have Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2, V-rally 3, and Quad Racing for it. They are great for the chilly experience. <3: I might just pick up a Final Fantasy game for it. :P

 

 

 

You?

i don't have a NES anymore but I still got my N64 hooked up to play GoldenEye, Perfect Dark and MarioKart (among others).

GBC baby 8-) .

 

 

 

I don't have any of the old consoles, but I got some old games off the VC on my Wii.

I got a Gameboy pocket in the closet as well as a SNES sitting right beside me on my old and tiny TV, and an n64 in the other room with many good ol' games.

 

 

 

Perfect dark was godly (And the only fps i was ever better at then my friends.)

I thought about playing some of my old DOS games the other day, maybe I'll go ahead and do that now. Maybe some SW: Rebel Assault or RAII, maybe some Tie Fighter, or possibly some Dark Forces.

I have a PC built exclusively for MS DOS games. It's a frankenstein-esque monster slapped together from old parts scavanged from computers found at garage sales. Most of the games also come from stacks of floppies I bought at garage sales, although it's padded a bit with stuff that's available from Abandonware sites. I also have Windows 3.11 installed on the machine for nostalgia's sake, but there are very few games available for it.

N64, PS1, Gameboy Color, SNES, and a NES in the attic somewhere...hm, but yeah, I get them out once in a while. I lost my Pokemon red and blue several years ago ( :( ), I miss them...but I definitely play the N64 sometimes, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Super Mario 64. No real reason to play my PS1, but I have it anyways O:) I bought the SNES not long back at some pawn shop for $15, so I only have a couple games for it...I didn't realize that all the good ones cost 30-$50 on Amazon and Ebay <.<

"El que no arriesga no gana"

n64 for mariokart and goldeneye :)

Before my SNES broke, I used to play that all the time. Thank God for the virutal console though. :P

SNES:

 

Zombies Ate My Neighbors

 

Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

 

Super Mario Kart

 

Mario Paint

 

Donkey Kong Country 1 & 2

 

 

 

I play them more than my PS2

I used to have a SNES. No idea what happened to it.

 

I used to have a N64. Mom gave it to some kid who was "less fortunate".

 

Gameboy color and pocket, both lost years and years ago.

 

 

 

Bye James Bond, Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, Ash.

 

 

 

:cry:

i still play my N64, its quite fun.

 

 

 

and original xbox but thats not really too old.

 

 

 

I play NES games through emulator sometimes but i don't have a hard console.

 

 

 

and the old gameboy color and gba.

I've gone through several Playstations, my N64 is on its last legs, but my SNES, which I bought the year it came out, still works perfectly. 8-)

Metal fans, check out my band!

Still the King....

I still play some GBC games on my Advance. If I had an NES I think I'd still play it

A Gameboy around somewhere, Gameboy Pocket aswell.

 

 

 

Nintendo 64 is buggered. I'm sure my dad has an old console poking around somewhere. Also a Playstation aswell that I'm gonna set up to play FFVIII

You don't need a separate PC for DOS games, just download DOSBox :D .

The oldest console that I have in my house (if you include hand held ones) is probably my game boy advance, the first one, not the sp (although I also have an sp).

I have a GBC, GBA (original, limited edition platinum..the one seen in the pic), a Sega Genesis, N64..and I have a computer that runs Windows 98 still..and I play some DOS games on it.

Dark Force>Doom. Anyone who argues is just a fanboy.

 

 

 

I have about half a dozen DOS games I play on DOSbox every once in a great while. Games no one has ever heard of. They came free with my computer but I love the nostalgia factor. If I played these games today without ever having played them 12-13 years ago, they would be garbage. But nostalgia is a powerful force...

Yeah, I have some games like that too. Can't remember their names now, and I can't seem to find the floppies. It was a demo disk that had Raptor and Jetpack on it. The other games were and Asteroids clone, a Missile Command clone, and a game where you have to shoot down paratroopers, and if you do well a guy delivers pizza. I loved those :D

I know about DOSBox, I just like the feeling of playing them on a computer where the power switch is still a switch, and where there's a physical key required to start it up :P
