I enjoy playing with my Wii...
« on: May 03, 2007, 10:03:19 pm »
I've always enjoyed video games. Was a teen when pinball machines started "talking", Space Invaders, Donkey Kong and Pac-Man were king. I probably could be retired by now... all those quarters.  >:(

I prefer /simple/ games, love the classics... usually find PC games a bit too complex, don't really enjoy them.... too many commands, inventories, choice of weapons etc. 

Currently enjoying Elebits and Super Paper Mario for the Wii. In my 40's and enjoy these /kiddy/ games, as some call them. Not hard core but at least once a week pick up the controllers...

What are you playing?

Anything from the Doom/Quake stable. Matty the Damned is a great fan of ultra-violent first person shooters. PC versions only.

They provide such excellent training. :)

Quake II is my favourite, but Quake IV has it's attractions.

I have a Wii too.  Fun stuff.  Just remember to move all the furniture if you play Wii Sports Tennis with 4 people.

I finished God of War 2 about three weeks ago and started Super Paper Mario and Pokemon Pearl.

Who ever moved the thread to "Off Topic"... Thank You !!!  I'll be more careful next time.

No wonder I enjoy /simple/ games... I can't even post things to the correct topic...  It's hard being a newbie.

Doom... Not my favorite. Actually I get scared if I play "Resident Evil 4" on my own...   :o

Oh, the joy!  I just recently unearthed one of my favorite childhood possessions:  A ColecoVision game system with an adapter to play all the Atari games as well.  That's right....we got Donkey Kong, we got Donkey Kong Jr.


                                                          We got Q-Bert.



Defender, Asteroids, Space Invaders, Pitfall, Missile Command, Bezerk, Pac-Man, Dragon's Lair, Yar's Revenge....


I still have to literally blow the dust off the old thing and the cartridges.  I really hope it still works!  Even if it doesn't, just looking through these old game cartridges and holding these old controls in my hand sure has taken me back.  These kids today with their new-fangled technology!

I'm still loyal to the good ol' joystick.

The WII has asteroids pacman space invaders? Donkey kong?

I was a donkey kong fan  :o

Does it have pong? I remember my first console, PONG and only PONG. I'm a pong fan  too :o

I saw that the WII's production hit unexpected results and that the company is struggling to keep up, so it must be good.

A ColecoVision with an Atari adapter!!!
Ok I'm coming over :)

Never had a Coleco... Had an Atari 2600 but don't know where it went. Then went to a NES -> SNES -> Cube -> Wii. (a few portables in between).

Can't believe it... You have a ColecoVision with an Atari adapter!!!

I'm not going to touch your Joystick comment... Since diagnosis I've been off of joysticks... But I play with my Wii :)

Cheers.

PS. Just as a note AM doesn't look very good on the Opera browser for the Wii... When viewing the messages using the Wii, the text can get a bit funky. Although clicking refresh solves the issues.

Yes, writhe with envy one and all!  I had the Atari 2600 and upgraded to the Coleco system.  It was the big thing just before the onset of the Nintendo era. 

I had a racing game that had a sterring wheel control and foot pedals for gas and brakes.  It was the DEAL !

So I went to Apple headquarters in France, and I signed a form that basically said I would never disclose what the fuck I was going to see. The guy opened a drawer and there was the apple IIc. He said "we need a demo". Me and my partner wrote a demo for the apple IIc which was basically a mouse usage demo, the mouse being obsessed by french cheese etc. It was bundled with all apple IIc in France. What made us seriously laugh is that we got a copy of the software signed by some crack team saying that they cracked the demo. It was never protected so there was nothing to crack lol

Miker,

The Wii does have what they call "Virtual Consoles" and /some/ older games are available for purchase online... using Wii Points. Sorry no Pong.
Ohhh yes I had a Pong machine as well... That was a long time ago.
You have a pinball machine at home!! Settled then... I'm going to Thunder's place first... and on the way back I'm stopping at your place. :)
My brother actually plugged in the "antenna" output of the Pong in the power socket... it got fried.

Thunder,

Weren't those the days :) Atari  / Coleco. Now a days we have PCs that could rival some super computers... But they still don't have the Wow factor those early systems had.

I never understood those strange heart/spades/diamonds etc on the PET.

I bought an Apple II for 15000 francs, which was about $2500 in 1982. My mum paid for it and I reimbursed her for about 5 years.

Me and my friend, Jimmy, used to go to the arcade on Friday nights with like $5-10 burning holes in our pockets.  It was like an electronic crack binge.  I rocked at Tempest.  Up to the "Yellow and Green Levels" with crowds hanging around watching how high I could go with the game.  I was the shit in my stylin' parachute pants.

Nibbles.. good times.. good times.. I'm happy to say that I got a message (not email, it didn't exist at that time), from a hacker, saying "dude, you really got me working hard on that one" on one of the games I protected. He finally found out how to crack it. But I was proud :)

Zippers, hell!  I just loved how they left nothing to the imagination.  It was a godsend to this young little mo back in the 80's.  Wall to wall high school boys in parachute pants.  I can still hear that sound they made when you walked in them....swish, swish, swish.....

I've always enjoyed video games. Was a teen when pinball machines started "talking", Space Invaders, Donkey Kong and Pac-Man were king. I probably could be retired by now... all those quarters.  >:(



 ;D   Remember "PONG" ? Those were all good game, played them a lot, until I think I started developing carpal tunnel --( before they knew what carpal tunnel was ). My hands/fingers would ache/cramp something fierce !! Caterpillar was pretty good along with frogger. Played them in the bar all the time.
