Console poll
« on: February 21, 2007, 12:37:10 pm »
Since there are too many gaming systems out there to fit on a Poll, we list the ones we've had here, or coukld have add, add notes to our collection and junk. It's simple to understand, I'll go:

I want: A Wii
A better PC, even though mine are fine
An Xbox 360
My effing lite to be repaired by Nintendo already

I HAD:
3 Commodore 64's. I still have a monitor from one, those tihngs are awesome.
1 SNES. I regret selling it, and 20 or so games for 5 bucks. The AVcord fell apart literally
1 N64. This thing sucked after Mario Tennis was stolen. Mischief MAkers was good though
3 Ps1's. All had a heart attack. Yes, they were chipped. Don't look at me, I can't even figure out how to properly burn games.
1 Gameboy Original. This thing was hardy. The screen FELL RIGHT OUT OF THE THING and it still worked after fixing it and junk.
1 Pong thing. This was a sad little thing. It brokoe.

I HAVE: 1 DS phat. IT works good but there's a cut on the touch screen.
1 Gamecube. Still has good games. I'd say check out F-Zero GX.
1N64. I still have it.
1 Atari all in one TV Games thing.
1 Gameboy Advance SP. The thing is fun and all, but Ba games are useless cuz of the dS to me.
1 Gameboy colour.
2 PC's. One is my good one running XP Home, the other has Windows ME and never crashes. I can find pictures of OS-tans if you want and stuff too.

There, I'm done.

EDIT: I think I just placed this in the wrong section. Oh well, people mod their things to do things other than playing games, right?

Hmm... im not much of a console type of person, more like a sweaty PC nerd :P I do have a PSP tho. Its a pretty darn useful device. With a large enough memory stick, you can turn it into  an entertainment center that goes with you.

My friend (who knows a LOT about electronics and that kind of stuff) Is working on a wireless internet thingy, that he will install inside his psp (and mine :P) which will then, possibly, allow us to browse the internet on the psp anywhere, without the presence of a wireless modem.

...  I actually gave up playing when BMcC began beating me at my games. It kinda took all the fun out of it by having the snot kicked out of you by a 4 year old.  ...

I had:

C64
Nintendo (yeah, the NES, not the Super Nintendo)
Sega Megadrive (aka Sega Genesis)
Gameboy (still lives to this day actually, but I never use it anymore, nor know where it is.)
PS3, I've sold it because i had some issues with it (and no games at the time were worth having a PS3 lol :p ), but perhaps I'd buy it again in the near future when games like Metal Gear Solid 4 and Killzone 2 are released.

I have (and use from time to time):

PS1
PSP
PC (c2d e6600, 3gb ram, X1600xt (and hopefully soon a ATI HD2900XT) )
XBOX (bought it for Halo, use it for Halo.. yeah, what can I say.. :) )

As you more or less could derive from the list, I'm more a PC guy, less of an console gamer.

I had:

A Sega Genesis
A Sega CD (wasn't really worth it, though Sonic CD was cool)
A Sega Gamegear

Then I skipped a few generations, and got:

A PSOne (I got that three years ago)
A PS2 (got that two years ago)

I also have an Atari 2600 running around somewhere.  That is all.  Oh!  And I have a couple of Macs, but those don't really count as consoles.
