Something to make you feel old

Having a Wii now is like having a SNES when the Wii was new, think about that...

What about having a Matel Intellivision

I have no idea...

Reminds me when I went to Gamestop and asked if they took any old-gen games and the guy at the counter told me exactly, "no, they're too old." I'm pretty sure my reaction was this: .

I no longer have a Wii, but I feel old sometimes (and I still have my Wii U).

I gave up on my wii
My wii u and my 3ds are my hacked consoles and my switch plays legit games
When we get a new nintendo console or rather when the switch nears its end, then i'll hack it and sell my wii u and probably my 3ds too

Once I returned a game to GameStop after 2 days because it was boring.
The manager said to me "We're not a rental store"

Never gave them another dime.

Well they were too old but at the same time not old enough. I bet they wouldn't have scoffed at NES/SNES games.

I haven't bought anything from them in so long. Still surprised that the closest one by me is still in business!

Well, of course! Collector's items no one wants don't make profit just sitting around, do they?

IMHO covid19 lockdowns would have driven them under, except for the reddit GME stock hype

Wow just checked CEX after seeing your post and their Gamecube prices are insane at the moment. If I cash in my whole GC collection I will make over £8000 and even more if I take store credit instead. I'm definitely heading to my nearest store first thing tomorrow lol.

Question: what would you do with more than 8 grand in store credit?

No idea I would rather have the cash then buy a shit load of GC games cheap from ebay and other places that I know I will get more for at CEX and cash them in for a healthy profit.

So, what does having an Atari 2600 equate to?
