I'm 23. I just stuck with retro games because everything was becoming noticeably shitty. Not much else to it than that, I guess.

All the info in that thread is 2 years out of date.

Just add two years to everybody's age!

Now there's a concept!

Not just the ages are out of date, people's interests can change in 2 years too.

32 - grew up with the NES erupting, genesis greatness in the mid '90s, playstation in college (then the dreamcast, with n64 mixed in) - then ps2 at age 22, etc, etc.

I'd argue being born in 1979 is probably one of the top years for nostaglic feelings around retro gaming given the growth of the industry as we grew up.

[DAAAAA!!]

I'm 18..

I haven't always been Retro Gaming tho. I played some NES games on the computer and I though "holy crap this is good!!" and I got my Retro Duo and a year and a half later, I now own 327 games ... I went kinda crazy at thrift store and Swap Meets.

Just started my retro collection this year. And just turned 24 last week. My favorite consoles as a kid were the genesis and ps1. Now I would say my favorites are pc engine, Saturn, ps1, and. dreamcast.

Yeah, mid to late 1970s were it. I mean you were old enough to rlemember the entire Mario craze, etc. I was only a year old when Nintendo was released and while I have a lot of fond memories, I really missed out on the early Nintendo craze.

I am 36.

I'm 34. It was great growing up in the 90's with the NES, Super Nintendo, Genesis, PS1, N64, and Dreamcast.
