What should we call us old school gamers? **Now with Poll**

I like Dragons.

[QUOTE="Shadow_op"][QUOTE="fatzombiepigeon"]Why do you need a special name at all? I started gaming 11 years ago renting games for the Super Nintendo at the age of 5. I'm a gamer, not an elder, sage, or anything.fatzombiepigeon

Yes, but why do you need a special name? You played games on the Nintendo and the Super Nintendo. Great times, but I don't see how it warrants getting a special name.

What's so convenient about seperating yourself from other gamers with yet another "breed"? That would make things less convenient in my opinion. But hey, to each his own.

This thread brings back some good memories---Ninja Gaiden, Ghouls + Ghosts, all the stuff by Treasure. You're right, games were MUCH harder. --Heck nowadays almost every game, besides being much easier, has cheat codes for gods sake! We actually had to be THAT good to win.--Wow, I sound like my grandfather. Tony_aaaa

Wasn't the point of my question. My point is, making another breed when there is no need to make that breed would not be convenient. MS fanboy works fine too, but that is beside the point. Whatever, I'm sorry I ticked you off and messed up your topic.

Or we had to sit for 5-6 hours to play games like Fester's quest or the original Castlevania because there are no save points in those old games.

Dragons sounds kool :D

There is no point.
