So back in the day, it’s safe to say the Nintendo 64 bested the Sega Saturn…

But it’s now 2025.

Which console has survived the test of time?

Definitely a win for Saturn.

The games have held up far better, and there are more I want to play.

Yes, it’s a magazine advert for Commando, but which video game system does this “screen shot” belong to?

"Haven't played OutRun?

You haven't lived."

Was the quote on the box art of 2006 Coast 2 Coast on PS2.

How true are these words ?

Sometimes you are late to the party.

I had a white pc engine with no easy way to play in the U.K. for over 20 years !

Is there a console or computer that….

1) You haven’t played at all / very much

2) you _know_ you will LOVE it

For me, it’s the Sega Dreamcast.

I have one, and games, but haven’t played it - but I know it’s perfect for me.

What is yours?

It’s not a video game, but did anyone have “Test Match” from the 1980s?

I used to see it in various catalogues back in the day but I’ve never seen it irl.

What say you?
Would it hold up in 2025?

Really enjoying this Super Nintendo SNES game.

Was not expecting the mode 7 on this boss !

(Run Sabre, heavily inspired by “Strider”)

It’s my favourite of all the early “slide and shoot” games.

I remember it from the arcade back in the day.

It’s odd what you can feel nostalgic about…

Today it was car headlamp wipers.

They were very cool in the 80s and 90s.

Currently for me, it’s industrial sized tins of baked beans.

It drowns out important voices who want to be a part of the community. And we will end up with the same old people doing the same old things to get clicks.

I’ve come to the conclusion that starter packs are not a good idea

They stifle the joy of finding new accounts and just promote the same old people over and over
