QOTD: What's the Oldest Console You Still Play?

[snurp85]

I still have Sega and N64 hooked up and play on a somewhat regular basis. Road Rash 3 or Mortal Combat 2 for Sega, and Mario Cart or Goldeneye/Perfect Dark for N64. But I have to say N64 is the best. It has the most ergonomic controller ever made in my opinion. Sighhh

 

[tickedoff]

I've played them all, from Pong on through. Keep meaning to break out the PS1 and play some Rouge Trip, and the NES is still working...with a little cartridge wiggleing, but it is on the other side of Canada at my parents place

Ditto on the Dreamcaste (awesome system!).
I have SNES and a Gamecube... I play on my old xbox the most.
It is loaded with emulators of everything... and no setup!!!

I Use MAME to emulate everything.... Have over 4000 oldschool games.

 

[pyr0hawk]

My kids still play N64 and PS1 and I have a few games I still enjoy on the DreamCast (space channel 5, rez)

NES

 

[cimtaurus]

NES Zelda still rocks. Of course I play it on the Wii now, but it is still the game that addicted me to fantasy RPG's.

 

[orbitron]

I still have the NEC SuperGrafx and I still use it once in the while.

I have a NES, usually play SM3, Kirby or the Zeldas. Have an N64 but not that many games yet, looking to add to the collection. And I have an old AMD K6 running DOS 6.22, with a SB16 Soundcard, for DOS Classics.

And I have a genuine Sega Genesis controller converted to USB hooked up to my media PC so I can play Genesis Emu games on the TV with a real Genesis controller, the way it was intended.

My wife asked me to hook up her old Intellivision... I was surprised that it still worked. Worst controller ever though. She even has the "voice" card attachment so the game could talk.

I had Colecovision... hooked that up too. Zaxxon, Burgertime and Mousetrap were the sh!t.

And I recently hooked up my 3DO... yeah... I'm one of the few who was dumb enough to buy one.

I wasn't around in the 80s, and I didn't get my first console until the N64, but I still hook up my SNES (got a long time ago from parents) and play Zelda, Mario, Contra, etc.

 

[vertigo_2000]

Actually, someone here might know... my cousins had a system called Leisurevision. Noone else I've talked to has ever heard of it.

 

[ksenter]

Turbo Duo and NES (although it's probably been a couple of years since I broke out either)

 

[matchboxmatt]

I'm always game for some N64 Star Fox and Mario Kart action. Best games of our time.

 

[kittle]

I dont play console games -- namely because i cant STAND the controllers they use. After 10min my fingers hurt and I have deep red impressions of the buttons on the ends of my fingers.

gimme a PC + keyboard + mouse and im good.

 

[tickedoff]

I had LeasureVision too!!! Alot like Intelevision, same controller type with the little overlay cards for the key pad. Not too bad a system at the time, though it only lasted 2 years and was Canadian made.

 

[tickedoff]

Sorry, Leasure Vision is actually the Canadian branding, for the Emerson Radio Corperations, Arcadia 2001 console.

 

[mavroxur]

I broke out the NES and SNES recently for my son to play with. Even though he has an xbox 360 he gets a kick out of the old games and plays Mario Kart, RC Pro AM, Super Mario World, and all the old mario's on the NES. Just goes to remind us all that sometimes it's not all about break neck speed and millions of polygons that makes games great, it's the game itself. Good times...

 

[pochacco007]

nes on the virtual console. if in reference for a real console then the n64 or the dreamcast.

 

[dainsane1]

snes and mario kart
it was my most recent console until only a year ago when i finally bought a wii.

 

[seanf78]

I still play mega man 2 for the NES. quickman's stage still pisses me off.

 

[Guest]

[dark_lord69]
