He did you a favor, the Nomad was a piece of shit. >so big and chunky it was uncomfortable to hold >using it on the go was expensive and impractical because it ate through 6 AA batteries for an hour of play, so you probably had it tied to an outlet with its massive powerbrick
Yeah but I got to play my genesis games on the go. It's easy to forget how amazing that is through like 2 decades of hindsight, especially now that we have genesis emulators that run on basically anything, but they were powering a whole ass CRT TV and a sega genesis inside of a relatively small brick, with SIX AA BATTERIES, LCD shit was not as much of a thing back then.
That's actually INSANE they did that on 6 AA batteries when you think about it. It's like how I'm amazed Steam Deck crams a a 165 watt PS4 console's worth of graphical horsepower into a 15 watt handheld format, no shit the battery is like 2 hours.
I unironically did this a friend, when we hung out for the last time before he moved. It was really shitty of me, but i was proud of how smooth i was doing it.
Stealing is wrong and you should be punished for it, but honestly... the dude was moving, you prolly never saw him again too. Think of it as a memento of him
Althought I technically never did this, I got my GBA stolen with my cousin's copy of sonic advance I borrowed, I never even talked to him about it since we lost contact not long after, and he got to keep my copy of oracle of ages
>In elementary school >Pokemon addict but a poorgay >Stole cousins' TCG >Stole a classmate's Pokemon plushie >Borrowed my cousin's cousin Pokemon Silver cart and never returned it >Borrowed my other cousin's cousin Pokemon Gold and never returned it >Borrowed my classmate's Pokemon Crystal and never returned it
I was a kid who didn't comprehend the sin of stealing but I never did it with anything unrelated to Pokemon. Still, I'm so ashamed.
In Elelmentary some kid traded me his purple see through gameboy color for a pen that lights up.
Although it wasn't stealing it sure feels like it plus I stole that pen originally anyway from a daycare.
Eventually someone else stole the gameboy from me when I was moving out so karma hit me anyway.
I'll never understand kids that steal. I came from poverty and didn't have shit growing up and coveted a lot of things my friends and peers had, but not once did I get the compulsion to steal because I'd never want the same to happen to me.
Some humans on this earth just do not deserve the gift of life. Their brains were formed incorrectly, and a swift execution is the only merciful solution.

I often wonder what you're doing these days Lucas, you demanding little shit.
I stole amazing island for gamecube from my bosnian friend and only played it once afterwards. I feel bad and would apologize but I haven't seen him in over 10 years

*proceeds to empty my inventory and delete all characters*
I didn't bother doing the same to him. Just stopped playing that game after that

My be isn't Greg, but my pokemon emerald was also stolen when I was in middle school, which would be about 16 years ago now. I loved that thing back then. I was so sad.
Ok can you bring it back?
You thought I didn't know, Seth?
I say I'm sorry
wtf this is my name and i did steal a pokemon game...who...
Could be worse, you could be the gay that stole my god damn Sega Nomad.
He did you a favor, the Nomad was a piece of shit.

I only ever stole pokemon cards, not games. Pretty sure I had my limited edition GBA stolen in return so I'm more than even.

Ukrainian piece of shit wouldn't return my Worms Armageddon disc. When I insisted it was scratched to shit. Frick you P you fake friend bastard
god what a spiteful homosexual
You know nothing. That c**t was straight up dark triad personality
This reminds of this Black person that stole my Spyro 3 disc, he never returned it. Frick you Michael I know it was you.

wow an indian named lucas? must be a 2nd gen immigrant
Sounds like lucas was never your friend, or worse, lucas saw you as a friend
>tfw I lent Harry my level 100 Lucario and he never gave it back
>not cloning it beforehand
your fault
do you know who stole my pokemon silver, GTA SA and rayman 3?

I never owned Pokemon Emerald, I stopped buying main line Pokemon games after Gold.
I don't know whose game you stole, but it wasn't mine.

I don't know. He probably didn't have a soul
Thankfully he wasn't nearly that competent, he just deleted the icons. Still what kind of brain malfunction you need to have to do this to your bro?

I still feel bad
Why feel bad, he had a good time. Sounds kinda based if you ask me.
