And the first Quake was originally intended to be a game featuring the main character, Quake, to be wielding a giant hammer, not a bunch of guns. Quake was the name of a character from Romero and Carmack's year's long D&D campaign.
One of my favorite fighting games of all time!
Kids were home every day. Minecraft became the new hotness in our house. I set up machines for my kids so they could play together and subscribed to a realm we still have to this day.
I know it wasn’t as groundbreaking as the original, but Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 is still one of my favorite games.
We want to own our own games again.
Sega of Japan was hellbent on upgrading and replacing the Genesis when it was still in its heyday in the states. If they would have forgone the 32x and partnered with Sony to create a next gen system, Nintendo would still be playing catch up to them.
The first TV I played NES on didn't even have a remote and to turn the channel I had to turn a physical dial, which only had 13 channel options.

It's great, not gonna lie...

Just remove those cabinet doors and bask in it...
My first computer connected to the printer via a serial port. Also, my back hurts.
Can we please get a sequel or a remake of this already?!?!?! One of the best OG XBOX games.
The Gaming Historian is hanging up the retro gloves. 😢
Norm created some of the best documentaries about retro gaming, and you should absolutely binge watch his stuff. His Oregon Trail documentary is PHENOMENAL.

It’s an unexpectedly great movie. And yes, the end is a tear jerker. The second movie is also fun.
I am unabashedly using save states to get through Rocket Knight Adventure right now. I'll be damned if I have time to memorize and execute the game perfectly nowadays.
I feel like April Fool's Day is basically ruined at this point because the world is such a shit show that things that used to be comically absurd are now everyday occurrences. 😒
So many came later, and so many were technically better, but Dune II is still one of my favorite RTS games of all time.
A genius Lego build.❤️
*sigh*
*takes more aspirin*
The whole push to use AI to make games look "better" doesn't make sense to me. AAA games look great right now, and in the past 10 years I've never thought, "Oh, I wish this great game looked better."
The days of pushing graphics as a selling point are over. We want gameplay and story.
One of my favorite fighting games EVER. Friends...you can fight as a car...enough said.
Bad News Baseball is still one of my favorite baseball games. The mechanics of the game just feel right and it's so much fun to watch Mr. T give you a high-ten after a homerun. There are updated ROMs with updated players, so I can play as the 2016 Chicago Cubs. :D

I WANT to say the Saturn, buts it’s objectively the PlayStation.
I had Sewer Shark and could never beat it. It got bounced once I got my Saturn and never looked back.
Gambit was and always will be my favorite X-Men. The cartoon did a great job with him, but video games simply ignored him for so long. He was great in X-Men on Genesis though.
Great to meet another Gambit fan!
One of the greatest beat-em up developers of all time: Makoto Uchida. Starting with Altered Beast, Makato Uchida went on to create Golden Axe, and Die Hard Arcade.
Ecco the Dolphin, a cute little game about a dolphin swimming around and...what the SHIT!?!?!!?
