Can't leave.
I didn’t realize this was true until five years in. It’s been 12 years now and I’m STILL on Ganker. I live a relatively normal life but goddamn this is the only website I go to; I’m just addicted to anonymous shitposting I guess. The whole karma-grubbing shit on all the other forums/sites is repulsive to me
>2011 summergay
kys
I don’t even play video games anymore yet I’m still here daily.
I'm old, and I don't play NEW games. The last 3 years, I've probably played less than 6 different games (Hitman, FFXIV, Persona, Yakuza ... all I can remember). Just part of getting old. Your free time becomes scarce, and you're less likely to waste it on shit you're pretty sure you aren't going to like.
Have a seat anywhere, sonny. But choose carefully.
fpbp.
t. 2005 old-gay. Was in HS when I stumbled upon this site. World was a better place back then. Internez included.
>I was playing vanilla wow when I first discovered this shithole
holy frick man
I was playing Imperishable Night and Perfect Cherry Blossom. The year was 2004. I'm 39 now. FRICK I'm old.
Once I quit this website for 3 years. I should've never come back
Ive been going on and off lately but i cant quit for good. I got a nice couple of months without but once life got a bit stressful again, i started coming again. I want to drop it soon again so i can be productive and get adult stuff done.
Best thing about leaving (and why its so hard) is that the rest of the internet is somehow worse save for youtube and any non interactive bank of information. The case is that quitting Ganker means quitting most of the internet for me, so i get to read books, draw things and face upfront the not so exciting obstacles in my life.
In fact im dropping this right now and reading a fricking book i have in my baggage.
I grew up with a PC
I never owned any console
The first game my parents bought me was Spore
>The first game my parents bought me was Spore
I can't believe there are kids on Ganker whose first game was Spore. Frick I still remember the shitstorm when that came out.
explain why youre still fighting a console war from the Clinton administration?
We can't fricking fit in society.
I grew up with a Game Boy. You richgays get all the luck
I'm here forever.
I feel bad for the poorgays who were kids that lived through Pokemania without both a GBC and N64.
I FINALLY played Stadium 1 and 2 like this around 2012, suffice to say it was ludo, it all culminated on a 1 on 1 battle vs. a friend who was playing the opposite versions as me. I won becausehe duped rare candies to get to lvl 100 instead of training by hand.
My parents couldn't afford it, & I wasn't allowed video games until after the divorce. I got my Game Boy Color when I turned 10 in 2001.
I'm happy that I got to experience what little I did. I watched the anime, got cards, other merch, etc. I wouldn't trade being a Pokemania & 90's kid for anything.
A black kid stole my GameBoy in the 6th grade. Got that red pill nice and early.
because i like videogames and big breasts
n64 rules btw
I've never met anyone who grew up with an N64 or gamecube who is well adjusted.
>said clown society inhabitant
Oh it's not just a matter of "can't leave" anymore. There's nowhere else to go.
These people aren't normal
Zoomers? Millenials? Gen X/Y? Boomers? Take your pick of fricked shit. In anycase those consoles were one of the last eras where games weren't made to be vices.
You kidding? The N64 was all about time wasting unsubstantial gameplay. That's the platform of collectathons.
>time wasting unsubstantial gameplay
Lol. Lmao. At least I don't have to buy DLC to make it more unsubstantial
Were it not for people like him you gamers would really be getting played.
I consider the n64's pointless collectathon games as a precursor to dopamine number feedback games like borderlands and cod. Rare discovered watching number tick up was an easy way to keep players playing - you didn't have to make it fun, just make number go up.
>Naturally he refers to #1 example: DKC
Any others you can think of?
>Rare discovered watching number tick up was an easy way to keep players playing - you didn't have to make it fun, just make number go up.
So like an Arcade game you mean?
Rare made platformers and shooters. They were also great with adding charm and story to their games and made N64 as popular as it was given with what they had to work with. Arguably they made better games for SNES. They were rewarded with being thrown under the bus by Nintendo shortly after they took another title they had planned for N64 and were told to mash one of Miyamotos Dying IP's in it for the Gamecube.
>So like an Arcade game you mean?
No arcade scoring is very different and usually involves a sort of meta game, ie psyvariar's graze system or cotton 2's juggling. Banjo and Mario 64 are about watching the counter tick up 1 at a time until a capacity is reached.
>ie psyvariar's graze system or cotton 2's juggling
Trash games.
DK64 is a good game if you play the character select hack that lets you change characters at any time.
This is one of the few times the term "fetch quest" is most appropriate in a single player game. The term is mostly about MMO quests that are just busywork to pad sub time. In other single player games when a quest has you pick up something you are playing through the area as you do it, the point of the mission to fetch the item is more of a bread trail to get you to experience the areas in the game, where as in MMOs its often just a field with mobs every time, so the derogatory term "fetch quest" is earned. Platformers on the 64 often had fetch quest type items/missions that were so bad they rivalled MMOs, as seen in banjo tooie and donkey kong.
I'm pretty sure people are well aware of this but don't want to admit it because it goes against "muh nostalgia"
There's a reason Banjo Kazooie is 100x more beloved than Banjo Tooie or DK64 but even then Banjo Kazooie love has definitely seemed to have fallen off over the past couples of years while Mario 64 (which actually has fun movement) is still very beloved. It's also why pretty much every 3D platformer these days very heavily features wide, fluid movesets, which no Rare game pretty much ever had
Banjo Kazooie is also a bad game.
I prefer Banio Tooie. Kino worlds
>taking someone else's character and turning it into a mouthpiece for your political agenda
This should be illegal and actively punished. It's absolutely disgusting and disrespectful behavior.
Oh I know.
It is, actually. Nancy Cartwright actually got in trouble back in the 2009 for using the Bart Simpson voice to do Scientology robocalls. The problem is that the backlash from companies enforcing IP rights against these "people" would be too large.
>the one on the left
a friend grew up with the N64 and even had the gamecube, he's a drug addict now.
How do you even define well adjusted anymore when the entire populace is constantly screaming at each other about politics?
Similar to me? Well adjusted.
Does things I don't like? Maladjusted.
I didn't grow up with an N64, I grew up with a SNES.
memed about losing control until I lost control
Sega Genesis. Not an n64
I grew up with an NES but my first video game memory is 'playing' combat on the 2600 and by playing I mean spinning the tank endlessly while my brother blew me up over and over again. I didn't care I thought it was fun
>That Majora's Mask cart sticker
Is this the PAL version? It looks like shit!
My first console was a Super Nintendo in 1992 when I was 6
>Actually 80s boomer on Ganker
Anon, I think you should look back and reflect on your life and what led you here.
Refer to the first post
I know why I'm here. What's worse, me being on here in my late 30's, or you squandering your quickly fading youth doing the same thing?
He was here first, immigrant.
this just makes you twice as bad for being here
No.
I like video games and booba?
I grew up with Wiiggle, b***h.
N64 kids grew up playing video games. Snoystation 1 autists are mentally stunted manchildren who constantly screech about Nintendo.
Back then no one gave a shit what you had
I grew up with a Nintendo Entertainment System, little man. Born in 1987, first game was Tetris on the NES at 2 years old. Then immediately moved on to Ninja Gaiden and Super Mario Bros as well as Duckhunt. Had all those awful movie licensed games like Back to the Future, Batman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (pic related lives in my head rent free for 33 years.)
After that came the Geneis with Sonic 1 and 2, skipped 3 somehow and got Knuckles. Loved Cyborg Justice, Madden NFL 94, AHHHH Real Monsters, and Terminator 2 although it was hard as frick.
After this I got the Nintendo 64 and Turok 64 for my 10th birthday. I even remember the day and how it went. It was the 4th of July 1997 so this is the 26 anniversary next year for me frick. My uncle was drunk and wanted to get me a nice gift for my 10th birthday a month early. Went straight to Toys R'Us just the two of us, insanely reckless move by my uncle and parents there, and he actually did it bought them on the spot. When I finally got home, I realized it doesn't come with a Coax or RF Antenna adapter, only RCA composite cables and my tiny CRT in my bedroom didn't have those. Had to hook them up to my dad's 27" huge ass screen in his entertainment system. I never hooked those types of cables up and had no idea what I was doing. My uncle didn't really help because he didn't want to frick with my dad's setup and went back outside to hang with my grandpa and dad. After awhile I finally figured it out, snapped that N64 power switch on and saw the fricking legal screen for Turok. Then came the beautiful logo screens and main menu. AS THIS HAPPENS my dad comes in the house, also drunk, telling me I need to disconnect it right now he wants to show my grandpa and uncle some documentary thing about UFOs. I had to disconnect it and sit there with an N64 and the most awesome game I had ever seen Turok 64, just sitting there unable to use them. I had to wait a week to get the RF adapter. It was torture.
yet you're here with a bunch of 15 year olds
You are like little babby. We had t-fps gaming before you were born

I still have that game, never managed to beat it because it's hard as frick.
I could never get very far on 64 but on PC I was able to get through it.
still had alot of fun playing multiplayer
>mentions GoldenEye but not Perfect Dark
Based list otherwise, especially Bomberman 64. We'll never get another game in that style again.
4 player in that game holy frick the madness especially when the stage hazards kick in
How many rounds did you win by throwing the last opponent off the stage while stunned rather than blowing them up directly?
WTF is a xhe?
my school had a afterschool club or some shit back in the day and N64 was one of the vidya.
but I would have to stay at a place I hated for longer so no
This is my first time here since reddit became terrible, I like videogames so what's to do around here

If you are over age 18 and play Nintendo games you need to grow up.
Shut up man! have a nice day! Haven't you ever read c.s. lewis?
Ah yes, the dissenting voice inside my brain. I thought I killed you long ago.
>implying
FRICK YOUR IMMORTAL FRICK FRICK FRICK
That's right, fool. And now it's time to die.
*organs come gushing out, brains splattered all over the floor*
Nothing personelll, gay. Oh shit im late for dinner
this thread is gay so im gonna play snowboard kids 2

Fool
I'm a 97 zoomer and it was a handmedown.
I found one in the trash yesterday along with a super Nintendo 🙂
b***h I grew up with a super nintendo and genesis
I had a NES and mastersystem before both of those existed
There is no leaving
I love video games
Me and a buddy are oldgays (c. 2006). We like videogames and play together. We lurk for funny posts and share them with each other.
>Explain why you're still here
Because it's the only place on the Internet where people aren't paper thin pussies when it comes to vulgarities, banter, and discussions in general.
I may call everyone here a homosexual, and despise waifuhomosexuals with a burning passion, but at the end of the day this day is my home and I wouldn't give it up for anything.
yep no filter posts that arent doing it for likes and upvotes.
just raw feels
I'm still here because you can't do your job
every other social media site will ban you for saying Black person or disagreeing with leftist politics
that's why I'm here
this is my place. it is not yours. go make your own zoomlet. Anyone who arrived here after june 2005 is reddit newbie trash.
if only you knew how bad things really are
Don't look at me, I grew up with a PS1. Played some proper 1v1 fighting games with bros. Darkstalkers 3, Tekken 2/3, and Bushido Blade.
Is this really how the thread dies?
what else you want to talk?
I grew up with PS1 and Saturn, never felt compelled to get an N64 because it didn't have any must-haves from my perspective, but I still never saw the point of console wars. Tribalism at its worst.
Console-wars have always been stupid and I hate that they're more prominent because of brand-obsession being so huge nowadays.
Just let me talk about the vidya I like.
At least back in the day, they were clever. "PLAY IT LOUD," "Genesis does what Nintendon't," "Blast processing," etc... I had both SNES and Genesis so I just laughed.
I had an N64 and a Playstation so I never got the whole warring shit, even friends/relatives that had PS1 would play N64 and have fun.
Most people that grew up with games still play them. The only reason this is a "new" thing is because people that were 40 in the 90s didn't grow up with home consoles. It wasn't embedded as a large part of their life early on.
I got an NES for Christmas when I was 13, by the way. And I'm sitting at a desk with 3 monitors for gaming.
>Explain why you're still here
???
Are N64 users supposed to be successful members of society? Guess they missed that memo...
I grew up with an NES, albeitever
I think almost everyone missed what I perceive to be OP's point in creating this thread: that a "xhe" would've killed "xhmself" by now, implying that N64 owners were trannies or something.
i knew he was trying to bait for the usual n64 shitposting, but its good that most anons here ignored his attempt.
