[Sea of Time]

I'm not sure if there is a topic exactly like this, but if it was made before it is very old, and if you're going to get mad at me for making this, I'm sorry you feel that way.

We were having a "review" class in math yesterday in preparation for a test. I use quotes on the review because all we ever do in "review" classes is sit around and talk. Me and a couple friends spent about an hour talking about old video games. It was fun looking back and talking about the fun we had with games on the NES, SNES, and N64, along with Game Boy games, Playstation, and the trading card games that took over our schools.

So with that in mind, I ask you guys to look back and recall your favorite moments with video games. I'm not looking for stuff that happened in the last five years, but stuff that you played in the 90's and games you remember playing and enjoying.

[TheEnglishman]

The Sonic games on my sister's Megadrive. When I first saw them they scared me, but they were the first games I played. There was my Game Boy Colour which was the first handheld or console that I bought. I was a bit annoyed though as the first game I got was Harvest Moon and it was never that good in my eyes. Then there's playing FF7 and Ocarina of Time..... *rambles*

[Sea of Time]

I clearly remember when Pokemon was huge at our school. There was only two people in the whole school (300 kids) that wasn't playing the card game at recess, and those kids were pretty lonely. Then the games got hot, and I remember that everyone had Blue, and almost no one had Red. I played my friend's Game Boy Color, and he had Blue as well.

Personally, I don't have all that many memories of video games since my first system was a GBA and I got it in 2001. But I do remember lots of fads from school and arcade games that were always fun.

[TheEnglishman]

I remember getting excited when I beat a Gym Leader on Pokemon Red the first day I had it. I was all like 'Yay!'
I was one of the few who didn't have Pokemon cards but had the actual game.

[Saturos S.]

Sonic the hedgehog on the sega megadrive. That was loads of hours of fun.

Shattered Steel for the PC made a lot of happy hours for me.

[Aquamarine]

The first ever games I played, but actually enjoyed deserve to be mentioned. Those were Mario Land 1, 2 and 3 for the original GameBoy.
Next up is Super Mario 64, which was the game that really got me into gaming. So yeah, I owe a lot to the red capped plumber...
There are many games that I could think of that are worth a say here, but I'll just mention Majora's Mask, Smash Bros. Melee and Pokemon Ruby, my three favorite games ever. They screamed "JOY!" in my face during every second of playing, and so I only have nice memories of them.

[TheEnglishman]

Sonic was great on the megadrive. Shame practically all titles since then have been rubbish. At least it was the best for me in the early 90s. (Totally better than that plumber guy. :blink:)
I'd rank playing FF7 for the first time as a good gaming memory as well. It was just a different experience for me at the time (as well as for a lot of other people). I guess there was the time when we got a PS2, even if we could only play X-Men 2: Wolverine's Revenge at first.

Same here. I was very behind. I got a Gameboy Pocket when GBA was out and N64 when Gamecube was out. The main reason for this was that they were all hand-me-downs from my cousins.

[Sea of Time]

It was funny, because I bought my first deck of cards the day after they banned the cards at my school. When something takes over like that, it's only a matter of time before they ban it.

[TheEnglishman]

It never got banned from our school. I remember when some dropped their cards. Rather than help the kid pick his cards up, people ran over and stole them. That's the grip they had on people.
I've somehow managed to forget about Ocarina. Now there was a game you could really enjoy!

[Sea of Time]

It's hard to describe how crazy that Pokemon craze was. Kids would rip other kids off in trades, even though they had no idea what they were doing. It's sad to look back, but six years ago, I would gladly have ripped someone off in a trade. They did hold a power, and it's amazing to think how rich the guys who made those cards must be.

[Nyktos]

Exactly. People I know who were obsessed with those cards did things like rip people off. Nowadays they player more "mature" TCGs and they would never dream of doing that. It makes me glad I never got into them, though I did buy a few.

[I'm Always BROKE]

Ahh my good memories of Donkey Kong Land... The birthday present I got when I turned 5. :angry: Possibly the best b-day present I've ever got in my life.

[Sea of Time]

I don't know what happened to good DK games. They all kinda suck after those bongo games. Donkey Kong Land was a really good game though. So was Donkey Kong Country.

[I'm Always BROKE]

What happened to DK? Well, Rare's gone... And I think that Nintendo shouldn't even touch Donkey Kong anymore and leave it all to PAON. Luckly we still be having Diddy Kong Racing DS. :angry:

I also have good memories of the N64. I never really liked Super Mario 64. I thought it was better in 2D, same for DK64 however I DID liked that game. Banjo-Kazooie and Ocarina of Time however both beat it.

[Aquamarine]

Ah, Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie... Excellent games, both of them. Such wacky humour, well, Rare humour. I liked Tooie more than I liked the first game, but Mario 64 beats both, though barely. It was just far more inovative than those two. DK 64 can hang its head in shame.

[Saturos S.]

Ah, Banjo-Kazooie, I loved that game. I used to play it with my neihbour all the time when I still lived in England.

And what about Croc and Croc 2, those games were awesome too.

[I'm Always BROKE]

Hey c'mon Aqua, DK64 wasn't all that bad! No, it clearly wasn't a worthy sequel to the DKC's... But it's perfect comparing to the Bongo games, and the other **** titles Nintendo came up with (not counting King of Swing <3 Paon). DK64 is just overshadowed alot by Banjo-Kazooie...

I honestly never played Banjo-Tooie. And I'm ashamed of it... I heard it had a talking penis somewhere in the game. God I miss Rare. It's a shame we won't see Banjo Kazooie on the Virtual Console, since Rare's now owned by Microsoft... Maybe a good reason for me to buy a XBox360 later on.

[Lemontime]

My first gaming experience, ever, was the N64.
I came home from school one day and saw my brother and dad sitting on the couch paying Mario Kart 64, possibly the greatest racing game EVER made.

But one of my greatest memories was Snowboard kids on the 64.. That was seriously the greatest game ever. It rocked so hard. No joke. Greatest game in existence.

DK64... was okay when I played it over five years ago. But now I see that it is a total rip-off Mario 64 and just a (tedious)collect-a-thon(sp?).

A talking penis? What a lie. That could have happened in Conker, but they wouldn't put that in kiddy Banjo-Tooie.

Oh yes, Conker's Bad Fur Day. Amazing game. One of the funniest I've ever played, and awesome multiplayer. It's a shame Rare started going down-hill later, with all the bad games they've been making. Hey, Diddy, as much as you like Rare you must see that their newer games aren't as good as their old! Though I would really like to play Viva Pinata...

[I'm Always BROKE]

No I know, Rare's not doing great either... But the new Banjo-Kazooie game sounds promising. So does Diddy Kong Racing DS. The remake on Conker's Bad Fur Day for the XBox was good, but not as great as the original on the N64. However Rare's not doing good at the moment, I still think they would do better if they still where with Nintendo.

I however don't think Mario64 and DK64 are the same. Yes they are similair, but there are still alot of diffrences. Look at the boss fights in DK64 for example. I think they're done alot better than in Mario 64. The final battle vs K.Rool was very suprising and unqiue, while the last battle vs Bowser in Mario 64 you already knew what was comming...

I've heard the talking penis was hidden somewhere in Banjo Tooie. And even though Banjo is kiddier then Conker, it's a Rare franchise afterall. :angry:

[Aquamarine]

If that talking penis is somewhere in the game then I'm surprised how it could have gotten an E for everyone rating.

Diddy Kong Racing DS sounds good, but not great. It's a remake after all. If it were a new DKR, I would be thrilled at the prospect.
Why are Banjo and Kazooie so ugly now? Why did they change them so much?

I agree that the bosses in DK64 were great. But that's not reason enough to say it is different to Mario 64. Yes, DK64 has a few differences, but most of those differences have already been used in Banjo-Kazooie. Another good thing about DK64 is the inclusion of the original Donkey Kong game. Awesome...

[Zangetsu]

Pocky and Rocky II for the SNES I have yet to still beat that game since my dog chewed up the cords on my controllers ;-;

[Aquamarine]

Really? Was your dog ok after that? I hope he didn't get electrecuted or something...

[Golden Legacy]

Most nostalgic memories for me are for the SNES. A Link to the Past, the original Star Fox, and of course, Super Mario World 2.

By far, amazing classics.

[FlamingDuck]

There was this little game for the GBC called Magi Nation. And it rocked so amazingly. Of course, it was virtually impossible, but it was an oh-so-fun virtual impossibility. That part may have had something to do with me being about 5 or so when I got it, and I only got to the second story bit before I left it in a pants pocket and it went throught the wash...But it was awesome. I've been considering buying an SP and this game again jsut so I can see how hard it really was.

Other good moments were Link's Awakening, my addiction to Tetris, and Pokemon. Oh, the Pokemon. Gold Version was one of the best games, EVAR.

[Sea of Time]

I had a bad addiction to internet Tetris. That game just pulls you in and won't let go. And I agree, Gold and Silver were obviously the best Pokemon games.

[TheEnglishman]

I never bought puzzle games like that. I just don't see much fun from them.
I also remember when my sister got her original playstation. Games like the original Tomb Raider really looked good back then.

[Blue]

Ah, old gaming memories.
Pokemon: My first pokemon was a Squirtle. after it became a Blastoise I renamed it Slammer. Now in Leaf Green I named it Slammer in the beginning for nostalgia's sake.

[TheEnglishman]

Mine was a Charmander. I remember it well. I named by Nidoking 'Elvis' because he's Nidoking and... yeah. It was funny at the time. ^_^

[Saturos S.]

I gave all my pokemon names the first time through.

Things like sparkie, magnetboy, core...

I had Gale the pidgeot.

[Zangetsu]

All this talk about classic pokemon games make me want to ply my Crystal version. Unfortunately it broke on me after about 800hours played on it with about 600 of them actually counting. =P

Addicted much? Yes, I was.

[Golden Legacy]

Ahh. Crystal version, my most cherished Pokemon game.

I still remember that battle with Suicine. Good times...

[Sea of Time]

Trying to get those legendary dogs was pretty intense. Chasing around the world for it got exhausting, but I finally caught it after having three battles where it got away.

Pokemon was a huge part of the late 90's and I'm not surprised to see many people here were a part of the craze.

[Zangetsu]

Yeah but mine like shorted out or something and it won't play anymore ;-;

I almost forgot about Clay-Fighter. I loved eating people as the blob. XD

[Aquamarine]

My first Pokemon game was Silver. I will always remember back to that game with a smile on my face... One of the best games EVAR! But my favorite Pokemon game is Ruby, nonetheless.
My first ever Poke was Cyndaquil. I never gave nicknames to them, I always found that to be a bit stupid.

~Level 5 Yoshi

[Sea of Time]

I thought nicknames were stupid too, but all my friends would always give nicknames to their first Pokemon. The screen would say, "Do you want to give a nickname to Squirtle?" and they'd be like, "YES! YES! YES!" But not me, I was like, "meh."

[Saturos S.]

My first pokemon ever was a squirtle. He was so cool... his name was Squirt. He was such a squirt.

[Aquamarine]

An he had such an original name... ;)

One of the rare Pokemon I gave a name to was Ponyta in Silver. I named her Honolulu. It was my brother's idea...

[Blue]

Another memory I have of Blue version was using a Gameshark to get Mew as my first captured pokemon. Mew was and still is my favorite pokemon.

[Toasty]

My favorite is probably Charizard or Dragonite. Come to think of it, I really don't have a favorite.

I was probably the least into it when I was younger. I was probably the only kid withought cards, but I had a holographic dragonite. Lost it though.

But the best way to catch those guys was to use scary face or something. Kept them from running, unless they used roar.

But that game was probably even more popular than Yugioh was a few years ago. It still has an incredible fanbase, and is probably Ninty's best selling franchise.

To get back on topic, a friend of mine was remembering tekken a week ago, and he was like "Remember tekken? That game was so bad!" And he'd jump like they did, and do the movements of one of them or something. It was pretty funny watching him and another friend fight like that. XD

My favorite old school game, though, is probably Diddy Kong Racing. I had so much fun with that game.

[TheEnglishman]

I remember the first time I played Tekken 2. I thought I'd been doing really well and I was pretty impressed with myself. Then my sister pointed out that I was only on the practice mode. :)

[Aquamarine]

Compared to Soul Calibur Tekken sucks, even though they're both made by Namco. Oh man, Soul Calibur 2 was so awesome! Purchasing all those weapons and using them in fights was great, especially to me since I'm in love with medieval weapons. My favorite fighters are Kilik, Cervantes, Mitsurugi and Assassin, though Maxi is close behind them. To all who have played this game: who were your fave fighters?

[Toasty]

I was thinking of renting this game for my GC a while back, but I didn't know much about the game, and I didn't want to risk wasteing 5 dollars. I'm thinking of reconsidering.

[Aquamarine]

"Wasting" 5 dollars!? Are you crazy, I paid 50 Euros for the game and I say it was worth every penny! Try it, you'll see it is great.

I remember when me and my best friend rented a PS2 and Soul Calibur 3, I wanted to play it so much, but I couldn't since it wasn't released for GC. Then we played it for hours on end, and I loved it. I wouldn't have bought it though, since it wasn't different enough to SC2. Zasalamel is awesome though...

[Neon]

Anyone here played Guilty Gear? It's a fighting game with some pretty screwed up characters...

[Aquamarine]

Yeah, I played Guilty Gear. Played it at my friends place. It's good, but there are better fighting games out there.*cough*Soul Calibur*cough*

[Sea of Time]

Guilty Gear was a pretty cool game, but I'm not as much of a fan of "ye olde" style fighting games. I was much more into RPGs when I started gaming.

[Toasty]

My favorite games at first were racing games, like DKR, and Penny Racers. I used a cheat on penny racers to unlock all the stuff. That game, though the graphics sucked for even that time era, was awesome. there were so many ways to customize your car. From spoilers to engines an everything in between. And then there were a lot of cars to choose from, and you could make your own tracks. It really was a great game imo.

Like I said, I didn't want to risk wasteing 5 dollars. All I had at the time was my friends' older brother's opinion. Back then, 5 bucks was a lot to me since I was nearly broke.

[Caael]

I distinctly remember when everybody had Pokemon cards, and the main thing I remember was my friend James saying
' Who wants a punch up for a charizard?'

It's stuck in my mind for 7 going on 8 years now. I dont know why, but it brings good memories.

[Neon]

Pokemon defined our generation. If you weren't playing pokemon, you weren't there.

[Toasty]

....I wasn't there.... :)

But I finally rented Soul Calibur 2. I beat in about 5 hours. It wasn't as great as I thought it'd be, but it's worth renting.

[Sea of Time]

He doesn't just mean the games, he means the trading card game as well. Even if you were there to witness those kids who were luckier than you playing the game, you were there.

I don't think there's a person on this forum who won't meet that criteria. We were all there.

[TheEnglishman]

I wouldn't say it defined our generation, I'd simply say that it was a fad which ended up being more popular and well remembered than any other. In the end though, people just lost interest in it.

[Toasty]

And went down in history as one of the most looked down upon franchises ever. Along with Yugioh. But it was cool when it was cool. Which was a long time ago. At the very least, the ganes are still worth buying. Most of the time.

Soul Calibur 2 is a game you can't exactly beat, since it doesn't have a single player adventure mode. Well, I guess Weapon Master could count, but that's not the main part of the game. Did you call any friends round? If not, then you missed out on the best part of the game: kicking your pals arses from here to the Moon.
And you should have upped the difficulty of the CPU's. That would have made the game quite funner.

~Level 10 Yoshi

[Toasty]

I bought most of the weapons, fought a friend in vs mode (he beat me, but I finally figured out some good combos), beat weapon master (along with all the sidequests), tried every mode of play, and learned a bunch of combos for Link and Timil. I pretty much finished the game. There was much to be desired, but it's deffinately better then Tekken.

[Aquamarine]

Oh well... I guess some people just like it more than others.
And for future references it's Talim, not Timil. If you're talking about the girl with the two elbow blades.

[Mars Djinni]

Speaking of Talim, she's the very first mainstream Filipina Video Game Character. That's certainly something to remember. Mabuhai!! >|

[Golden Legacy]

If you mean that she's hot, then I definitely agree :D

*ahem* That said, anyone nostalgic for a certain GBA RPG, that had a sequel, an amazing storyline/graphics, an engaging battle system, and just an overall great setting? ^_^

[Sea of Time]

GS was certainly my first experience of a great game. My first game on a console I owned was Super Mario World for the GBA, but GS really opened my eyes to RPGs in general. It was just a great game.

[Caael]

A Link To The past brings back many great memories- even though I only got it on the GBA. Still, it was my first and favourite GBA game. I was devastated when I lost it.

[Neon]

I played lttp on the computer. Hard to play that way but the game seemed very good.


And for those who don't know, Curse of Monkey Island is the best game ever.

[Aquamarine]

I played quite a bit of Escape from Monkey Island. It truly was a great game.

Not only have I lost that game, I know a person who also lost the same game. And now you? I'm starting to think this game is cursed, everyone's lost it and just like me, they want to play it again!

I have a copy which I hope I haven't lost. Then again it has been awhile since I last saw it...

I might get it on virtual console when it comes out, its probably cheaper than buying a new GBA one.

Yeah, damn nintendo spacing out the good games for the virtual console and feeding us all the crap stuff for months before we get something worth purchasing. I want them to hurry up and release and lttp and Super Metroid.

Now Super Metroid, THAT is a great game ;P.

Yes, that's the word I was looking for. Even at my age, I try to avoid thinking about... *that* stuff. So I wasn't sure of the right word to use. Yes, she's cute, but I suppose "hot" refers to...

Bizarre you mentioned FFVII as I started playing it again the other day. I've had the game for years but only ever completed it once. It's a pretty big task.

Great balls of silicon!

Aren't old school games a little too old for most members here? I mean, they were only popular in like, the 1980's.

[Toasty]

Hopefully no one here has balls of silicon.....<.<; That would just be wrong. Hopefully, if you do have silicon balls, you don't think about *that* because trust me, you wouldn't get past first base.

About old school gameing, my favorite has to be Centipede. It used to be the only game we had on our PC when we had a Gateway (we had the massive space of a 1GB hard drive!). I would play that for minutes on end. And then I got an N64, that's when I became obsessed with games. DKR was my favorite game for that system.......

[Aquamarine]

Dude, Split already tried telling you, it's written obssessed. With a double s. Two times!

I love Pac-Man. I really do. It's still one of the funnest games there is. I haven't played it in years, but I would so like to.

Tetris is an old classic too, but I hate it... I do have a great deal of respect for the game though, since it was so revolutionary, but I just can't play it.

:blink: Toasty was right! What is the world coming to?

I can't believe you can't play Tetris, Aqua. It's easy as pie! Well no, if you consider how hard it is to make pie, but still, what's hard about putting blocks together and clearing lines? It only gets hard around level 9, for goodness sake.

[Aquamarine]

... What? Only one s? Oh, the lies I've been living in...

And I CAN play Tetris, it isn't hard, it's just that I can't STAND playing Tetris for more than, like, 15 minutes! I get bored to death! It's just not my kind of game.

[Sea of Time]

But you make lines! And then the lines disappear! It's painfully addictive! It really reminds me of *that*.

[Aquamarine]

... It does? Seriously? Well, now that I think about it, Tetris and *that* are similar in a way... Except that I find Tetris highly boring!

[Sea of Time]

This conversation could get dirty really fast, I'm not sure if I'm ready to sacrifice my dignity talking about *that* or how I lost my virginity to Tetris.

My first game ever was Tetris for GBC. I got completely obsessed. With only 3 s's. After that, it was Pokemon Red. Then Link's Awakening. Then Pokemon Gold. I'm sure I said this before,, but gold is the best Pokemon ever. Also, I had a bunch of the cards, but had no one to play with and no money to buy them with, so I lost interest.

That wouldn't be because it doesn't include any plumbers dressed in red, would it Aqua? :lol:

Hmm, yeah, that just might be it.

And there are no blonde elves either. That's why the game sucks!

You kids and your misunderstandings. If I lost my virginity to Tetris, that means Tetris raped me. *shakes head*

It works both ways, you both lose virginity. That is, if you havent lost it before

[Sea of Time]

Why would I take advantage of Tetris though?

I don't know, why would someone bake a pie? Why would someone light a duck on fire? WHY WOULD SOMEONE EVEN BE ABLE TO DO THAT TO A GAME?!?!

:o Toasty was right! What is the world coming to?

I can't believe you can't play Tetris, Aqua. It's easy as pie! Well no, if you consider how hard it is to make pie, but still, what's hard about putting blocks together and clearing lines? It only gets hard around level 9, for goodness sake.

1) I'm always right. I know EVERYTHING. :lol:

2) Level 9? That's easy. It's level 15 that's hard. I can only beat level 15 if I start out at it. I've gotten to level 15 before, but I've never been able to beat it if I start at level 1. And by the way, if any of you remember that topic someone posted about tetris, you know, the thing where the pieces were there for a split second, then they were at the bottome of the screen? Yeah, that's level 15.

[FlamingDuck]

Can you even start at level 15?

I could only get the space shuttle to launch in Tetris DX, the only one I had. I think its the best ending, but I don't know.

I was playing Tetris Worlds GBA. You have the option of starting on any level you want. But I always play cascade style.
