I remember that I used to play Super Mario 64 all the time in the past. It's the first Mario game that I've ever played in my life. After ~six years of playing the game, I got so excited and told everyone in the house that I finished the game. To this day, I always cry whenever I listen to the ending credit's music.

I had a Sims 2 cartridge for my Advance SP. It was a fake probably because the save function wasn't working as intended. I was leaving my gameboy on all the time, connected to plug on the second floor of our summerhouse and played that until i was bored with it that way. When I think about it today it sounds crazy but I was having a lot of fun!

About 10 years ago I've got my first Nintendo Gamecube.
I was blessed with the Mario Kart bundle, and me and my brother played this game through many nights :rolleyes:.
I can also remember how scared my cousin was when I played Legend Of Zelda Oot and when I went to the zombies under kakariko graveyard she was soo scared by the screams and I always laughed my :rofl2: off.

LOL, my memory of retro gaming was play NES for hours, and having my mom ask "how long we had been playing?" Of course we would say we just started, lol. But then she would rech over and touch the power brick and feel how hot it was! She, without any warning, would yank the power plug out of the socket, making us lose all our progress!!!! This was a daily/weekly event in our household. Thank God for save points! :)

One of my retro gaming memories go back around the time pokemon blue/red/yellow came out. I made it my job to pester my father for days on end until he finally decided to buy me pokemon red. I was 9 years old at the time and I wasn't competent enough to get through these types of games that require a decent level of reading. The only memory of mine I recall from playing pokemon red is when my older brothers and their friends were making fun of me for naming my character "Ass" while I my intent was to name him "Ash."

Good times. Good times.

I remember when I moved into a new town as a kid, and I didn't have any friends to play with, since it was summer and I didn't have any neighbors, and we found a clear gameboy and a copy of pokemon red in the old shed by our house. I had no clue how to play because I couldn't really read (I was lazy), but it made me give later games and I'm still hooked today!

(I beat USUM the day after it came out C: )

My favourite "retro" gaming memory definitely is when my cousin came to visit us during the summer or during Christmas holidays (she lives on the other side of the country). We both had a DS Lite, New Super Mario Bros and Mario Kart DS. I remember spending countless hours playing with her in two player mode on both of these games, it was so much fun

Never forget when I finally learned how to properly input a hadoken playing the arcade version of SF2 CE back in the day (it was in '93, I was 8 years old). Such a simple input nowadays, but it was "the beginning of the warrior's path" back then. 8D

Way past the smartphone era, I had like.... No money. I was around 12, and had no method to do anything on the go besides a dsi with a broken camera. To remedy this, I bought a gba so, and used a gameboy camera to take pictures. Sadly everything had to be taken upside down due to... Great hardware design.

As a kid of limited means when this game was released. I was fairly happy to find it in the clearance bin at the local video store. The internet didn't exist quite yet so all I had to aid my choice at that time was a company name SquareSoft, and of course one of two consoles I had at that time the SNES. The game itself was of grand design of which I'm sure many already know. But the RPG genre at that time for siblings was set for one to play while the other(s) watched. We had a few games that entailed one player challenging the other. So at least two controllers were always present even if not attached to the console. Until that day my brother who is a few years younger than me enters the room. He wishes to play as well. I acknowledge him with controller in hand and proceed to save and exit so that we may change cartridges but before that was possible he connects the controller and begins to press buttons. What I did not realize at that time was those objects sticking out of the heads of the rest of my games party were joysticks. So I yelled at him as I could no longer control the game. It took but a few moments to figure the what had happened and when we did we both enjoyed the rest of that quest not as competitors but as a team. This discovery of co-op was brought to me and my younger brother by a game from the clearance bin no manual no box and underneath that large $12 price tag was the title, Secret of Mana.
