For some reason, my friend and I were always trying to get into everything. We had PCs, Genesis and NES in '93, and we were curious about previous systems like the Sega Master System. We'd always get stuff a few years after it came out when they were on sale or part of flea market finds.
The IIc was marketed as portable and easy to use for those unfamiliar with computers. It was less expandable than the other II series machines and had a slightly less powerful processor.
Vintage computers would be a fun thing to get into.
SanAndreas just pointed me to the Colecovision Flashback Collection on Steam. I used to have the Colecovision Flashback deck that came out just before Toys R Us closed up. I imagine these are the games from that deck. There are a lot of them.
One thing I'd like to explore is the Atari decks/computers after the 2600. You remind me that maybe I should look for a 7800. I've never owned that one.
Oh cool! There is the Colecovision Flashback on Steam!
I'd say I was a PC gamer from '83 to about '93 and then it was hybrid PC/Console until around '05 and then it was all console. I've only recently started phone gaming, so that's new.
Pikmin 4 for me, and I'm excited to learn more of any Rocksteady project. Great studio!
Yeah, and I got stuck in one area doing that last time I played it. Dummy me, I'll try again sometime.
Whoa! There are four collections? I'll have to check that out.
Ooo, chain reaction explosions. I'll have to check out those games sometime.
I recently played Baseball again on a Intelivision II with my friend. It's still super fun. You can really control all the players on the field and make crazy pitches.
I sometimes find the Fire Emblem games overly complex. Maybe Engage would be more enjoyable after all.
