I fear the day I have kids and they think the shit I loved growing up is intolerable because it's not rendered in 5790p at 800 frames per second and they can't tell that a character with fewer than 100,000 polygons is a human, let alone a character you can get emotionally attached to.I still have my Gameboy. I'll probably give it to one of my kids before they're contaminated with this graphics wankfest of the present and beyond.

Just to say I doubt anything going to be 800 frames a second, that shit is pretty slowmo stuff for Frames.

"Oh, this? Why, this is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System! It's one of the best games ever made. Why don't you give it a try?"

That was a wonderful NES game.

Quote you again to say we most likely going to have 6000P or 8000P next as we already have 4k.

I wouldn't worry about Gameboys not working 20 years down the road, I've read stories and seen pictures of one that was more or less melted in a mortar attack work flawlessly after the screen was replaced. I also think my GameCube will outlive me and the next 3 generations. Say what you will about Nintendo; they build stuff that makes military spec look like Walmart brand.I want to do something similar, where my potential spermspawn grow up with everything videogame related that I did plus the new stuff. I'd like them to know of a simpler time where you don't have to buy DLC to escape the first level, preorder to get half the game's content, uploads their every move to Facebook, and games that aren't sequel numbered to the point it dwarves the Super Bowl.

I don't know about "older" merchandise, but the Wii Consoles will explode if you even breath on them.

I'm fairly certain that Nintendo's consoles used to be made in Japanese factories, and then they switched to Chinese at some point - I think it was around the time the first DS's come out.

So that might explain some things.

Hmm, I kind of grew up with snes and genesis. Older graphics don't really bother me much. However, my brother can't handle older games and refuses to play nes games because of their "awful graphics." Needless to say, our tastes clash dramatically.

Descent, '92.

Class 1 driller sound like a pedobear taking a buzzsaw against a chalkboard just before surprise buttrape.

Also, its gun sounds like someone on a meth-coffee binge calling you an idiot in true desu/dakka spam format.
(oh, and some had cloaking devices, and they liked hiding)

Original NES and NES cartridges: = unbreakibru!

See, I just don't know how it's possible for someone to not know what Star Wars is. Like, it's not even a parenting issue, because even if the kid's never seen the actual movies, Star Wars is still EVERYWHERE in media. There are Star Wars products, references and parodies EVERYWHERE YOU GO. If this kid has any access to TV or the internet (and all kids of this generation have an iPhone now so I'd expect them to have internet access) then they can't go very far without running into any Star Wars material.

And I haven't even had TV since I was 9.
