I don't know the game, but definitely an Atari.

Can’t quite remember if it was Donkey Kong Country on SNES or Pokémon Blue on Game Boy Pocket, but one of those.

The system was a PS2. I think the first games I played personally would have been Ratchet and Clank or some licensed Disney shit like Peter Pan or Cars.

I am not sure which I played first but the most memorable ones are Bubble Bobble for the C64 or Goriallas on a really old DOS PC. Putting in really high velocity numbers to make the exploding banana fly through the building rather than trying to figure out an arch was my favorite strategy.

Amiga 1200. Great times 😉

My earliest memory is playing either Chase HQ or Kinnikuman Muscle Tag on the Famicom.

Gameboy Pocket with Pokemon Blue. I may have played Space Cadet on a PC before I got my Gameboy, not sure.

The first computer game I played was Scarab of Ra on a macintosh 512k. The first console game I played was Super Mario Bros 3 on NES.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, how do you like the Poco F5? It’s currently on my radar

El_Rocha, 2 years ago

I switched to the Poco F5 from my Mi Mix 2S. Overall I think it’s probably the best bang for buck in the category. If you know your way around MIUI’s shennanigans, it should be pretty great. The only complaint I have (it’s really small) is that I was used to tap the power button for shortcuts, but now that becomes weird because it always unlocks the phone.

Thank you!

It was dome child friendly puzzle game that was given us for free with the school milk.

MelancholikhPatata, 2 years ago in What's the hottest and coldest temperature you've ever been in?

hottest was 47°C and coldest around -10°C (which felt too cold for me haha, it's crazy to me that people can survive with temps like -20°C and lower :ρ)

There’s an actual reason for me, which is still not good enough of a reason for me to actually buy a new phone even if the old one is still working. Emulation! My Snapdragon 888 is good enough for 3DS, PS3 and Wii and all this stuff, but it can’t keep up with the current develpments in Switch emulation. That’s why I’m already looking forward to my next phone (as soon as my current one doesn’t work anymore)

Red alert on my brother’s psx.

i upgraded from a samsung galaxy S9+ to a S21

Reason?

better battery. the old was too poor to last more than half a day.

the apps are the same, and honestly apart from the ultrawide camera, the pictures look so identical i cant really tell them apart.

i did notice a slight improvement in loading times of a game, but… its 2 second difference. nothing major. and also the new screen is a bit brighter, but the resolution is lower.

i miss my S9+. it was great.

My S21 is 2 years old now, and still holding strong. It’ll probably be replaced in 2025 or something. It’ll all depend on the battery. but i live in EU, so i may be holding on till we see the EU law with replacable batteries come into effect. then i can use the same phone for even longer. spend my money on more interesting things, like graphics cards and mechanical keyboards.

Spiracle, 2 years ago (edited 2 years ago) in what was your first video game/system you played or remember playing?

Unsure, and depends on what counts as "playing". My brother got an old computer for cheap a long time ago. There was a floppy disc with a game on it. I don’t have more impressions of it than walking around in some weird geometry on the black-and-white monitor. Some sort of chess-board floor I think.

Truly gaming would probably be one of those small Tetris handhelds. I still have mine. Used to play for hours on car rides. Either that or Game Boy Pocket.
