50 micro-euros doesn’t seem like a lot.

Cheers!

Time to put on my archiving pants. Thank you!

Interesting to note that he says the Sega Genesis is his number one console.

I have a Wii U, a Super Famicom mini, an Apple TV and an Xbox One S (effectively only a bluray player) below my TV and they are never all hooked up at the same time. I have an HDMI switcher somewhere but who has the time. This guy apparently!

I remember always seeing these games in the store, and advertised in magazines. I need to seek these out.

Necronomicon Ex Dormis

Next up, Pac-Man-as-a-Service

Ah yes, The Nintendo GameDiamond

Those were the days

This doesn’t belong under technology, imho.

I remember the ad. I had no idea what a “Game Pak” was so I never took advantage of the offer. Seemed too good to be true if that meant an actual game.

I totally agree. I repaired and upgraded my GBA SP and it was such an incredible learning experience. Also confidence boosting.

I remember badly wanting one after seeing someone playing Gran Turismo on the subway. I eventually bought a 3G Vita with the expectation that I would be playing PSO2 “soon”. Well, as some of you may know, PSO2 was a surprise hit in Japan, and they never got around to translating it to English until fairly recently, and after the era of the Vita.

Memory sticks were so cool.

And the fate of video games, themselves, was sealed. For the beast had risen once again, and would stop at nothing to ensure the crash, this time, would be permanent.

In its recommendation text, Microsoft’s AI model wrote, “Consider going into it on an empty stomach.”
