Anyone Here That Wasn't Born In The Nes Age?

[crashblast23]

Well, I wasn't. I was born in the N64 age, but I did get my hands on an NES of course, just not the first time it was around.

Being born in the age means you were not a baby or young child during the time. Like when you heard about the NES when you were 9+

I'm from the Atari VCS age.

Born in 79 , had a Atari 2600 first.....then moved onto a NES shortly after

[modgeezer]

The VCS came out when i was in 6th grade.

I'm from the Asteroids and Space Invaders age.

But I did have a big advantage of growing up in a pub, so from the start of the arcade boom with Asteroids, Galaxian, Space invaders, Amidar, Bagman, Galaga, etc. I was right there playing them all the time.

My first ever system was the Popeye Game&Watch, and of course later on when the NES came out I begged to get one of those, which I eventually did by Christmas for my good grades in school. Must have played nothing but Super Mario Bros for over a half year.

I was born in 75. My first console was a 2600 in 83 or 84

But when it broke down in less then a week of having it my dad refused to use the receipt to get it repaired for me (Warranty obviously) my mum and some good friends that felt bad for me pooled there money to get me a NES and about 6 games

Plus they let me pick all the games too so I would have no turkey's LOL

I love my mummy

Born in 1969.. so I saw the Space Invaders arcade craze phenomenon (every machine in most every arcade was pure Space Invaders) and lived the Atari VCS at home. so yeah when the NES came out I was already in college

Heck, when the NES came out my memory of it was trying get my girlfriends to tolerate me playing it

[fusoya]

Born in 1980, the Atari 2600 age. I never had an Atari, but I had some friends that did...the NES was my first video game system, and remains my favorite.

[konnichiwa]

Born in 86 and the first time I heard about Nes was around my 8 so I am born in the new age?

[Schloss Ritter]

I born in '75 and slightly predate the Atari VCS/2600. It was also the first console we had in our home, though the NES is the first I owned personally.

[harrypmgaga]

Same here, was born in the Nintendo 64 era but have picked up all the Retro Nintendo Consoles.

[Spongeman56]

I was born a year before the N64 era. And the funny thing is, I own all the systems before the N64 and after the N64 but I don't own that N64 and thats when I was born

[andrevus]

well im quite good and know quite much about the NES era but i was born just the year the Snes era started

[perudon]

I was born in '78 and played Atari 2600 and Colecovision before NES hit the US.

I was born prior to the N64 age, but only by a bit. Super Nintendo was big, but we had the NES, which I loved massively!

The N64 opened up a 3D world for us, but even with the 3D world available, we stilll played with the NES as well, since why miss out with both worlds?

Why not? I was able to play video games around the age of 4. Hell, I remember earlier memories of playing super mario world, and thinking the koopas were teddy bears .

[Azrael]

Born in '75 so roughly the Atari VCS/2600 days. First console was an Atari 2600 Christmas '83 from there it was Commodore 64 (my favorite)->Nintendo->Super Nintendo->Playstation->Dreamcast-> and most systems since (though I still don't have a Wii yet...)

[ROCKSTAR6000]

I was born in 74 and remeber having a pong game in the house:)

[Mysterio]

Myself, I was born in 1978, and first played the Vectrex and Colecovision before moving through the Atari and NES phases. Glory days.

[MathUser]

Well, I think the better question is who was a kid during the NES age. Anyway, I was a kid in the NES age, and it was quite nice. I just wish games were as affordable as they've become today.

[triverse]

Born in 1976, had an Atari 2600 when they first came out. Father decided that computers were in our future (had to siblings) so we got a Color Computer (TRS80 I think), yay! My brother grew bored with it quickly and eventually got a C64, boy that was a pretty penny. Loved the C64, still have the TRS-80 in my closet though. Been gaming all my life.

[KiwiArcader]

I was 1 when JFK was assasinated and I remember running home from school to watch Neil Armstrong step onto the moon so I guess that makes me pre-NES-storic. In fact pre-pong even.

[Orchid79]

Born in '86. First console was a Sega Master System with Hang-on and Safari hunt (it belonged to my elder brother). I grew up with that with classics like Wonderboy 3. We then got a SNES (IMHO the best console ever) and I was converted to Nintendo for good...

[gamewitzer]

Born in 86', and my first system was actually the Amiga 500.
