I really want to find out the name of the console I had when I was really young. I think I've mentioned it before but it's one of those consoles that come preloaded with loads of different games. It had duck shooting and a Super Mario game which was always fun

I don't think so. If I remember correctly it was a gift from someone so was probably some cheap Chinese knockoff rather than a proper Nintendo
Lol my best friend and I used to use a craopy knockoff console too in college.

Maybe either the Turbografx or a Sega Saturn. Those forgotten 3rd consoles that had great games but nobody bought. Also so I wouldn't have to pay ridiculous prices on the second hand market for the games and such now.

I have one now, it’s pretty sweet. I have it modded to play burned games, because screw the second hand market for the games. That’s the crappy part of consoles that didn’t sell well.
Niice! What games do you have for it?

One console I regret never getting as a child and only played a few times when I used to head to a friend's house was the Dreamcast.

I hear so much about how great the Dreamcast was back in the day and often wish I had been able to grow up with that console.

I remember having the old Atari & having it hooked up to the TV in our kitchen. Considering it was in the 80’s, it was quite good as a starter. Of course, doesn’t compare to consoles now. When we got Nintendo NES, we found several that were remakes of classic Atari games. They were more fun to play back in the day as now the graphics don't hold a candle to newer games. But, it was still enjoyable to reminisce. Who remembers the old Atari system?
