Old School or New School?

I noticed nobody voted new-school, yet Nomi says she's most defineatly.


I feel that anything after the Colecovision is New School. Videogames are around 33 years old now and if anything, the NES is like going back and listening to Guns and Roses. Old yes, but hardly old school.

Technically, your first games were carts. Thus, you are safe. We will, however, be keeping an eye on you, youngin'.

The first game I actually 'played' wasn't a cart. Bart Simpson's House of Weird or something, on a real floppy disc. So nyah.

You missed my edit.

I don't consider myself old school, since I really only touched Duck Hunt and Mario. To this day I've never played an Atari game in original form, or any game on a console older than the NES.

But I'm not pure new school, since I did have a little bit of fun with some older things. I'm neither, I suppose.

old school. Was introduced to gaming by way of Super pong (which I still have), and then the Intellivision which was my brothers (Demon Attack and Carnival were the shit). When I was nine I got my first system, a SMS.

Go back and read my initial definition early on in this thread. Carts or floppies are old school.

I'm voting new school in spite of all of you.

Whoa and I thought I was old. I started in the old school with Coleco Vision (my 1st system) NES and SEGA Master System.

My first system was the GameGear. My first console was an N64. I always wanted a Genny but my parents never let me get one. I did play lots of SNES and Genisis at my friends though.

Jesus, i've been playing games longer than you've been alive. I started with the Atari 2600 when it came out. Old school all the way.
