We had a NES in my house when I was in grade school, I remember mastering Zelda, Dragon Warrior/Quest 1 through 4, Final Fantasy, Crystalis and tetris and solomon's Key. We has a super nintendo but I pretty much stuck to Final Fantasy II/IV and Final Fantasy III/VI, Ogre Battle (LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that game), Breath of Fire 1 and 2 and Earthbound.<br/><br/>When I moved to Indiana from Arizona, it was no longer a 2 hour trip to a mall, I bought the sega gensis, the sega 32x and the Sega CD. I was after role playing games because that's what I played. I specifically bought Sega CD for Lunar. I then purchased the Saturn and I seem to recall Dreamcast at about the same time as I bought the Playstation and Nintendo 64. I was largely dissapointed in the N64, since I wasn't good enough to play Zelda or Super Mario. My brother had spent time mastering fighting games at his friends as well as platformers, the most complex move I knew was for Sabin's Bum Rush, which I couldn't pull off all the darn time anyway, in FF VI. Since I was friends with the store manager at my Electronics Boutigque, before the GameStop days, he sold me all his SNK fighting games for 5 bucks. One of the best 5 bucks I ever spent. :P<br/><br/>From there I was hooked on Sega games. I still have pretty much every nintendo and sega system I ever owned. Heck I think I have two copies of every Gameboy that came out... and I got a job in a video game store to cover my massive addiction to Roleplaying games. I still never got any better at Mario or Zelda... but I did get surprisingly good at Perfect Dark.<br/><br/>In Indiana we had an arcade called Sega City or Sega Central and it was almost exclusively every sega game that had ever had an arcade cabinet.<br/><br/>So it sounds like you've got the gamer nerd knowledge cause I honestly didn't know half of what you highlighted. And it makes sense. Sega would come up with great ideas, at least I thought they were great ideas, and then just not market them. I loved Sega Channel! So I appreciated them as a "you came up with so many good ideas, why didn't you market better!" type of thing. Cause it seemed to me that Nintendo just focused on one thing and they just did it. Like hand held market. You couldn't seem to shake the gameboy.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>We should take this to PM. So we don't hijack the thread.<br/><br/>Also, Atria sorry to report but I am delaying my post to tomorrow. Worked a double and have plans for tonight, also was unable to sleep. I have some errands to run tomorrow but I should be able to manage.
