I once witnessed niggerball player Luke Walton call an xbox controller "the remote"
Who are you quoting?
>>12722327>>calls lives "extra guys"I still do this, I thought it was a regional dialect.
>>12722327It was always pronounced Rie-yew before the retcon.
>deeku
>>12722487For me it was RYE-YOU, equal emphasis.
>>12722493Yeah exactly. Anything else is a lie.
>>12722490Day-kew
>>12722331>>12722334top kek
>>12722327>refers to all gaming consoles as "the Nintendo"
>>12722331My friends and I just called them "the level 1 bad guy" or whatever.
>calls cartridges "tapes"
>>12722482But which region?
>>12724249Tapes was just easier and you got them from the same place (the video store)

>>12722331>>12722334BTFO
>>12724321I could see some normies calling all controllers "remotes" after the success of the Wii.
>>12722338>>12722487>>12722493It's pronounced リュウ
>>12722331We used to call them "Main Guys"
When I was a kid we called arcades "flippers"The final bosss was the "last guy"If you had no lives left you were on life zeroYou didn't grab coins, you ate themShoulder buttons were the "blocks"The snes was just the "super"What's a cartridge? They're cassettes
>>12724479You sound British.
>>12724296Yeah. It's the opposite of wall outlets where people call them plugs all the time when the plug is what goes into the outlet.
>>12722327Paddles and controllers are two entirely different things you retard
>>12724506sounds brown actually
>>12724685Yeah, like Britain since the 80s
>>12722327People here still call controllers "joysticks".
>>12724296Those are just "connectors"
>>12724249I forgot that was even a thing but can confirm.
>>12724763>joy...>...sticksthat's a dildo
>>12722369audio jungle
>>12722338Some fag correct me and said it was Ree-you, also called our American badass gully.
>>12722373I had friends that did this too. "Pass me the remote" maybe for remote control? Idk it always bothered me. I say controller.
>>12724296In all honesty I still don't know what these are actually called, I've heard so many different names for them over the years I have devolved to just telling people "the yellow red or yellow white and red cables" because I never know what pet name they have for them.
>>12724993Composite cable or RCA cable. Phono connector isn't necessarily wrong either because RCA originally released them to connect phonographs.
>>12722921I knew someone who called every console a Gameboy.
>>12725018Off the top of my head in addition to what you said I have heard them called RF cables, Coax cables, stereo jacks, cinch cables AV cables, RGB connectors. I dunno why it seemed like everyone had their own pet name for them.
>>12722327This is literally zoomers.You’re not fooling anyone OP you fucking day walker
>>12724881>GullyIt's Gaw-lie
>>12724321those old b&w TVs had remotes that had a clicking mechanism inside them before they came membranes
>>12724296We always called them av cables.
>>12724296"the colored cables"
>>12725042>calls Game Boy "Gameboy"
>>12724268To ever call anything a Game Pak, you had to be one massive douchebag.>>12724771Probably the most common boomerism (along with normalfag moms who called every video game console a Nintendo(>>12722921). I even knew a couple of kids (late genx, early millennial) that would call them tapes.>>12722327>calls levels "boards"Also stages and waves. But "boards" was definitely the most boomer term for it.
>>12726547>Game PakWasn't that the official term for Nintendo home console carts?
>>12726570Yes but no one ever called them that. Anon was probably just being silly.
Did anyone ever called lives a "try"?It made so much sense in my head, until a friend corrected me.I'm not sure if someone taught me this or I just made up the term myself.
