For general video/board/newspaper game fuckery and discussion.

Because the active userbase of burggit is so small, I'm keeping it as fairly "anything goes" for now. Feel free to post memes, informative videos, fan art, reviews, discussion threads, articles, cosplay, or whatever else you can think if that is gaming related.

No lewd pictures in the url field, but you can talk about nsfw games.

I spent most of my gaming days playing the Gamecube and Wii, so I'd say Gamecube is probably the system I have the greatest attachment to. But N64 is definitely a close second!

Atari 2600. Nothing comes close to the experience of going from a world without video games existing to them magically appearing in your own lounge room.

That does sound like it would a truly mind-blowing experience. Did it feel like it all happened like all at once? Or did it feel gradual?

It was all at once. Suddenly there's a world inside your tv that you can interact with that you literally never knew could even be possible. Whereas everyone grows up nowadays understanding the concept of video games.

That's crazy! Always wished I had experiences like that. You're kind of lucky to have had such an experience, I don't think people really have the same sort of experiences anymore. Even though technology is constantly advancing, the leaps all make sense now, everything is kinda like "oh, yeah, I guess you can do that." Whereas before, I imagine it was more like "Wait, YOU CAN DO THAT?!?!??!?"
