I am not happy with the Era that I am growing up in.
Being only 15, I was not there for some of the best eras in gaming, and it makes me very sad. Thing is though, I never grew up with modern consoles. It was years until I got a Gamecube, and therefore I grew up playing NES, SNES and N64 games. They where all my older brothers, but they eventually got handed down to me when he moved out.
When I got my Gamecube I was so excited, got a PS2 eventually and then a PS3. But I still go back to what I grew up with, and play these Retro games that I still adore, I might have not been there when they where in there light, but I still grew up with them as if they where.
I find that new games don't grab my attention like old ones, and I honestly have problems sitting there and playing most newer games like I can with the older ones, its odd, but understandable. And to be honest, there is nothing I like more then sitting in a dark room with the glow of the old CRT television lighting the entirety, playing some Super Mario Bros. 3.
That's my story, not that it really matters to anyone, but I felt it fit the topic quite well.
