This year Sonic the Hedgehog turned 22. Wow.

And the original Playstation is 19 years old...

I still remember wanting one on release.

I don't feel old at all. My 1st PS1 games was Crash Bandicoot and Heart of darkness. I was like 8. But I still have like fond memories. And my PS1 still works

22 years is a long time. I don't think Oscar will even get 22 years.

I can still recall picking up a knock-off 8-bit NES from the Bruma Lake flea-market. I was back in SA from Scotland and I think it was 1992 (a little late to the game as I think I got the Sega Genesis the next year which was already a few years old).

I still currently own a Sega Megadrive, still jam on it every now and then, but it goes to show, some old gen consoles still know how to keep us gaming for our generation.

Power rangers also turned 20 this year and if I'm not mistaken the ninja turtle animated show turned 25 or 26 this year

Still have my ps1 which I got in 1998. Still works and I still have all my games for it

Oh and Teletubbies are 16 years old now...

Doom is also 20 today apparently...

^^ Amazing artwork.

And Doom will never grow old!

I just want to point out that Ice Climber release for the first time on Nintendo Famicom 30 years ago today.

Feeling old yet?

Realised a couple of weeks ago that this year is the 20th year since matriculating and 10 years since I started at UCT with conversion course. Those two made me feel OLD.

Yessss, yes we are all getting old

I'm wearing an Atari shirt today

I'm afraid that I'm not a Sonic or Mario fan. The first pc game I ever played and really enjoyed was Altered Beast. Loved that solid. Was over the moon when I finished it. Got obsessed with Lemmings for maybe a week, but lost interest when I realized I sucked at it. Did play on a games system at a friends house that totally rocked, but I can't remember the system or the games - so terribly sad and old. I have also come to realize that I actually hate nostalgia - not only does it feel as if I'm not moving forward at all, but it also feels as if I haven't done anything better with my life since then. Sorry if this doesn't contribute to the thread in a meaningful way.
