I had a Sega Genesis and a few Gameboys growing up. My friend and I used to come home from school and play through all the Sonic the Hedgehogs. The last time we played a game together was when the first Playstation came out. I remember her laughing so hard because we were playing this fighting game, and the two opponents were bears, and I kicked hers in the nethers.
But I was more into playing games on the computer. The Microsoft Entertainment Pack - Chip's Challenge, Rodent's Revenge, JezzBall, Tetris, Pipe Dream, SkiFree. Also would buy those $10 game compilation disks.
Now I have a Nintendo 3DS, but I still prefer computer and mobile games these days. Mostly because fast-paced 3D motion makes me nauseated.
