Well mines not really a console as much as an ancient piece of history.

Vectrex; a ancient brother of the late Atari.. What a bundle of joy.. my parents past this on to me a few years back when I was begging for a PS2 for Christmas, they slapped a sticker on it and wrote PS3 on it.

I only have asteriods for it. Which is the built in game. But yea, I still pull it out and try to throw down a highscore from time to time.

For those of you who are thinking; WTF is this guy talking about...

Now if only EB would start carrying games for it.... :cool:

Actually, I don't think so. From what pops tells me, they all had different games loaded on to them aside from the cartridge games.

I wouldn't doubt it though.. What system didnt have pong? In some way or form..

I've collected systems since my first Atari 2600 in 1984. I still play Barnstorming. http://www.atariage.com/includes/scaleim.php?path=/2600/screenshots/s_Barnstorming_2.png&nwidth=200

My oldest system was a SNES, I feel like a noob.
And ya, the oldest games that EB carries are N64 games.

I started with the very first Nintendo. I loved playing the Mario Bros. games. From there I went to SEGA Dreamcast and that kept me happy til Xbox was released. :)

Being born in 1992, I didnt have much classic stuff to play.

By the age of 2 I was playing Super Mario World 3 with my step-sister at her house EVERYTIME I went. I owned an NES but didnt have that game.

I was also into the random Mario games that no one ever played for the original Gameboy. I dont remeber their names, but they were sure fun.

The oldest console I had was the SNES, which went missing some time ago. As luck would have it I got another one. Also, here in Winnipeg we have a store called PnP Games that sells retro games, I got a copy of Ogre Battle for my SNES off of them.
