What were you doing on September 1996?
>>11515523Swimming with my bros in my Dad's 19 year old sack.
6th grade playing re1
>>11515523Playing Mario 64
Existing as a 0-year old baby.
>>11515523Playing SNES (didn't get 64 until 1998)
>>11515523>that quip about having your SNES and N64 connected to the same TV
>>11515523I screamed at the top of my lungs every night until my mother would let me sleep with her.
Drinking formula
>>11515523Probably drinking peach juice while holding my mum's hand because I was six and didn't even have a single video game console yet. We were just walking outside, every day was a new place. Good times.
>>11515523I was buying my N64 with SM64. Still have the box.
Pontificating life eith a subtle "goo" and a profound "gaa" here and there.
>>11515523Sitting in 8th grade English class. The teacher that day wore a Mario shirt he got from preordering an N64 at Toys R Us. I came home hoping my dad would surprise me with one, but he didn't.
Playing my older brother's PS1. I wasn't a huge fan of PS stuff (especially in 1996) but my relict 486DX2 was good at nothing by that point, so it's not like I could be picky.
>>11515523not being born for another 2 years
>>11515523Fucking around on our Windows 95 machine like the retarded 5 year old I wasAlso played Streets of Rage and Golden Axe on our Genesis when I had friends over
>>11515523Going to school, playing PlayStation when not at school.
>>11515523Swimming with my bros in my Dad's 44 year old sack.

>>11515523Probably in 1st grade. My cousin would get his N64 a month later for his birthday at Amazing Castles, but I wouldn't get my first 3D console (Playstation) til Christmas of 1998. I was still happy and content with my SNES.
I was playing the best console ever, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
>>11515523I didn’t own a video game console yet. I’d get a PlayStation in 1997 with a copy of Disney’s Hercules. I was obsessed with the power rangers in 1996.
>>11515523Playing Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo. I ended up getting an n64 for christmas but I did play it before then in October. I only played Pilot Wings 64 and thought it sucked bad. 64 was the first 5th gen console I got, PlayStation came the next year and it saw a lot more action. Saturn also that same year.What struck me most about playstation games is how much more they felt like genesis and super nintendo games, snappier, brighter and more fun to play unlike n64 games which were sluggish and clunky.
I have no fucking idea. If I had an N64, then either playing SM64 or Turok.
>>11515523Being a yuropoor I was eagerly awaiting release, which took another half a year.But in April 1997 I became the proud owner of one and played the shit out of SM64 and Pilotwings.
>>11515523playing outside
>>1151609826 years old
>>11515523Playing Mario 64 at the kiosk at Sears while my dad would get pissed and say "we're not here to play video games."
>>11515523Playing this in kindergarten, completely unaware of the SNES/Genesis war and having a good time with all the games I could rent from blockbuster since getting a genesis in 1992.
>>11515523I was -9 when this console came out :D
>>11515523Another nostalgiaslop thread.
I was sat at home playing Playstation when Shigeru ring'N64 demo kiosks are live at Toys r US''yes'and you????????????
>>11515523Probably forced to play outside
>>11516558>stop having experienced things that I couldn't!
>>11515523Sucking onn my mom's fat tits. I was 1yo back in 96.
>>11515526Are you >>11515524 father?

>>11515523why of course, still playing on my SONGA SYSTEM gems like MK3, Comix Zone, Earthworm Jim 2 and Toy Story. Once or twice a week going to the arcades mostly for SEGA RALLY and Shadow Dancer... ngl, also quite hyped about that Sailor Moon chinese cartoon recently aired on cable
I fucking hate you people
>>11517431>people talking about retro times on the retro board! Fuck!!!
>>11515523Probably watching this every single day and playing my gameboy because I was always a generation behind as a kidhttps://youtu.be/lGONmVV2gi8?si=Gitj_iXzQsIQlsa_
>>11515523Playing my families new N64 and trying to ignore the sinking feeling that Mario 64 just simply isn't as good as SMW
>sept 1996I finished FF6 in the summer of 1996, so I probably was bouncing between different games I played before. Playing Twisted Metal and Warhawk at my friends house on his fancy new PS1, playing SMW, Zelda:ALttP, and The Lone Ranger on my SNES and NES at home, playing Colonization, SimCity, Police Quest VGA remake, and Commander Keen 4 on my 486 DOS PC.
Ummmm…so this board is literally filled with zoomers now?
>>11515523chillin in my dad's balls
witnessing sonic 3 on a cousins genesis and falling in love with ice cap zone music https://youtu.be/k6oEC4fpBhQ?t=872>FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT part of california, (I ACTUALLY lived in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dxHOD33VJU oddly enough back in the dayso yeah WILD FIRES is on fire folks HOTTER THAN SONIC 3 ANGEL ISLAND ACT 2 (its kind of act 1 one still but you get what i mean)My goal here is to render all of sonic 3&K from memory, i have this shit engraved in my memory but i am curious how far I can go with this, wish me luck!

>>11515523Learning to read and do basic math. I still remember the way the N64 box looked vividly; it would always be behind glass or on a high-up shelf, taunting me, until that fateful day in 1998 when Pops brought home Mayrio64
>>11517658Behind glass or on a high shelf at the store, I mean (I never learned how to write)
Probably playing Kirby Super Star until 11pm.

>>11515523watching nickelodeon and eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
Playing Doom.
>>11517623You didn't notice that from how whenever a retro game or console is mentioned people shit on it for being "too old"?
>>11515523in kindergarden. playing marioland 2 and sonic 2. completely oblivious to the fact Id soon discover mario 64, ffvii and pokemon gen 1 and be forever touched by the holy tendo spirit.
>>11517623master race millennials such as myself try to bully the zoomers as much as we can, but we keep losing ground. the people I really feel bad for are the gen x 2d boomers because theyre a niche at this point.
>>11515523I was watching Beast Wars
>>11517683nta but I remember thinking to myself about how people born in the year 2000 were adults now, and that was a weird thing, now people born literally yesterday are somehow 18.
>>11515523Probably playing Chrono Trigger
>>11517765Oh man, we will never get another show like this in transformers
Playing Muppets Treasure Island on PC. Entering nursery year (pre-reception year, which is in turn pre-year 1).
