Aug 24, 2009

I remember my parents wrapped the small GameCube box in a number of larger boxes insulated with blankets so they didn’t shake at all when moved. It was a very exciting time. I got rogue leader and played the same missions all day cause I didn’t get a memory card and needed to turn off the console to go to family stuff. It was fine though I probably could have played the Death Star attack alone over and over for a week. I went out the next day with my dad and used Christmas money to buy a memory card and smash bros.

My g/f got me a 360 and viva piñata when we were in uni for Christmas and my friend just gave me his copy of halo 3 cause FPS gave him motion sickness.

Last year I was saving for a ps4 and I had a family event Christmas Eve. People got me some money so I used that and my savings to buy the console and ffxv right before the store closed and basically spent all the next 2 days just playing through the game.

Nothing captures that feeling of being a kid and getting a console though.

He's playing some games, the worst he recalls
He's gonna find out which ones suck the most balls
The Angry Video Game Nerd is here

Oh, he's making a list and checking it twice
He's gonna go home and eat chicken and rice
The Angry Video Game Nerd is here

He hates the games that stink
He knows which games to break
He just might even hate them all
'Cause he's mad for fuckin' sake

You'd better watch out, don't give these games a try
You better not play 'em, he's telling you why

My dad would always do the thing where he buys the big consoles and makes the tag out to himself, but get us the games for it. Not like it mattered in the end since i took all the consoles with me when i moved out.

got a gamecube with metroid prime and the zelda collection around 2002, my parents didn't really care about the games I played but seeing the cool predator visor and gunplay in MP1 had my dad glued to the screen and he started asking me to teach him how to play and stuff.

also when I first got attacked by a metroid my dad went "Eso es una chocha!" (that's a pussy!") and the game became known as Terminador de las Chochas and variations of that
