It's a NINTENDO 64!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Brian Reed]

I think I was pretty much just like this when I scored my NES.

That's a lie. I didn't claw at the box the way this kid does. But I think I did all the screaming and running around.

Of course, I was 13 and thus it was somewhat creepier.

[John Drake]

That kid scares the crap outta me.

[Alysha]

Oh my God.





You're younger than me.



:x

I was MARRIED when I got an N64!

[Brian Reed]

I'm 32. I was 13 when I got a NES. I had my first son in my arms as I bought my N64.

Whew, you're older than me, then. 8) All is right with the world.

I don't remember how old I was, but I remember freaking when my parents got me that nice shiny Atari 2600. Oooooh yeah.

[St Omo]

You don't happen to have a younger brother named Nathan, do you? :mistrust:

[dimeshop]

That video haunts my soul now.

I don't know if it's good or bad that they're so appreciative. Does he understand the monetary sacrifice and hard work the N64 represents, or did his parents decide that he doesn't need his meds on holidays?

[Olivier E.]

Oh my God.

I was in my puberty when the N64 came out!

[amy]

I was in my puberty when the N64 came out!

and you're still there?????















That video was disturbing.

[Olivier E.]

and you're still there?????
.

according to 99% of the persons who know me, yes, only people who think otherwise are my grand-mother, my godparents and the people I work with.

[Taxman]

Brian, do you like video games or something? :?

[LilNeels]

:o
"Goldeneye" was THE game.

ahhh...the blood. the memories.

[Brian Reed]

Brian, do you like video games or something? :?


They've put food on my table for ten years now. :D

[Hot Pink]

i remember that xmas when the n64 was the hardest thing to find ever!

and then some kid i knew stole a bunch from lechemere, where they were sitting behind a counter where no one was looking!

[Your Pal, Carl]

Word. It still is.

[bairdduvessa]

i was in highschool when i got my first 64...and was 7 when i got my first nintendo

[M. Sean McManus]

That is a great video. I love you tube more and more every day.

[Olivier E.]

i was in highschool when i got my first 64...and was 7 when i got my first nintendo

I had to wait till 9, I was a poor kid :(

[ramtower]

I never had one. I had one of those wood-panel pong systems. And I had a VIC-20 with a tape deck.

[Brian Reed]

I was thinking about it, and I was 7 or 8 when we got our Atari 2600. I'm pretty sure me and my little brother flipped out as much as these kids did with their N64. My sister (who was 3 at the time) probably just made random noises because her big brothers were.

Now that I'm older, I exhibit the stranger behavior of standing in line at a Best Buy the night before a console launch with other mentally challenged people.

Fancypants game designers have to wait in line at best buy to get their game systems? That doesn't seem right.

No. No it doesn't. :nonono2:

First video system I had was a gameboy. We didn't have a TV so I had to settle for a gameboy. We did have a SNES that we kept at my grandparents.

It played three games; tennis, hockey and handball. I have no idea what it was called or what it must have cost. I remember that it had these strange little controllers that might be something like a giant lightswitch.

Whatever the first Atari system was that had Space Invaders was the first system that I really have interest in.

[Busman]

Yeah, I remember when we got our Radio Shack version of Pong, that bad boy even had a light gun game! It was shorlty after we got our first television for the Apollo-Soyuz hookup. Life was mysterious and magical in the mid 70s, let me tell you! I must have been 7 or 8.

We didn't get a TV until I was 16. My parents just made a choice that they didn't want to have a TV in the home.

[Your Pal, Carl]

Hardly ever. If I was, I could usually go somewhere else to watch it.

There was one occasion in my freshman Biology class where we were told to watch an episode of ER. I asked if we would be tested on it or if there was an assignment to go along with the viewing and I explained I didn't have easy access to a television. My teacher said no so I thought that was the end if it.

Well, the next day we had a quiz on it. I protested after class arguing that she told me there wouldn't be a quiz on it and if she had told me there would have been, I would have made arrangements to watch it somewhere. Her response was that I should have been able to answer the questions without seeing the episode. If that was true, I asked, why assign the show in the first place. She was completely disrespectful and basically brushed me off, a student in her own class.

That wasn't the only run in I had with her, but it's the only one that's television related.

What a horrible teacher, btw.

[Your Pal, Carl]

No. They were regarding events that happened in the episode. I suppose to an expert in medical knowledge, the questions would have been answerable based on a description of what happened, but as I was only a freshman biology student, they were not.
