Fiale Posted November 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 @The Batman For some reason when I was a kid we always had Atari then Nintendo game consoles (and a ZX81 and later Spectrum), yet ALL my friends had Sony ones - I also remember one kid getting a Acorn computer for some reason that we could not figure, think his parents fell for the "educational purposes" trap.

Dont remember the ZX81 but i recall the spectrum. I used to pretend to do work on it when I was a kid. Proper gamer looking back, Master system, NES, SNES, PS, N64, PS2, PS3 & now PS4 (when i have time) - dont think I had any others. Never bothered with the Dreamcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah these things - could hardly see anything from a few feet away and the recordings were usually just really poor, fuzzy with lots of flickering, we have come a longgggggg way.
