Fav game console when yous' was kids !!

I had an atari complete with fake wood finish. Fave game was space invaders. They were selling the table style pub machines in Chermside a couple of weeks ago with all the old games installed. Just need a man cave to put one in now:-)

Would a 24 set of Derwent coloured pensils be classed as a consul????.

As an adult, use to get into playing the sony with our kids. My forte' was Taxi driver, it was the only game I could beat our sons at, and rub it in.

They didnt want to play Taxi Driver anymore.

I'm with you, no such thing as game consol when I was a kid.
I used to play Mario Cart with my kids, could beat them at first but they got to good so I stopped playing.

Was never allowed a console as a young tacker but have fond memories playing Altered Beast & California Games on the Mega Drive. As soon as I was old enough though I bought my playstation 1 and have never looked back.....My love of games has been etched from my parents unwillingness to let me have a grasp on technology.

Game boy and Nintendo 64 were the best...

Dream cast was the most under rated console was years ahead of its time could do everything a PS 2 and x box could do but came out at playstation 1 era. If only the changed the software to allow DVDs we'd still have Sega as a console maker

I'm with ova50 my bag of marbles was my weapon of choice.
or find a stick to float down the creek, wild Aniseed stems made good spears.
No wonder I know nothing about Pooters, game console nah, snakes & ladders yeah

Surfboard and a beach. Closest thing to a game console that existed when I was at school was a slide rule :)

Started on the NES. Never had one but played a mates.
Got a SNES and loved Mario all-stars and good old Zelda, but the best ever SNES game was donkey Kong country 1. That game is awesome.
Then got an Xbox, lylat wars and golden eye 007 were awesome but then came Mario kart 64 and that would have to be my all time favourite.
Got a Wii a few years ago but don't play it much. It has that Wii fit board and that's a bit of fun. It's fun smashing my girlfriend at tennis and doing the Leyton Hewitt hand pointed ti face thing lol, Also got the latest donkey Kong on the Wii it's fun but geez the games seem heaps harder now??
