whenever i see a two-word phrase that starts with two capital Fs, like Furry Fandom, my brain sometimes registers it as Final Fantasy at first and i don't know why

actually i think in this case it was because the word "tactics" was nearby and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance was one of my first video games. funny how brains work

@noelle @OchotonidKnight i'm 22 ;w; but gba was my first handheld i owned myself (also had a hand-me-down game boy original and some gb games; ps2 was my first home console)

@typhlosion @noelle

Okay, so you just started video games late then.

I feel better that you're as old as my little sister.

I was playing Super Mario World/Kart before you were born, tho. <Y<

@OchotonidKnight @typhlosion Super Mario World? wow, you started late ;)

(honest to god my first video game was a Pong tabletop game)

@noelle @typhlosion

Shamelessly a child of the SNES here. Accounting for time zones, I was born on literally the day SMW came out in Japan.

@OchotonidKnight @typhlosion ooo. That's a heck of a pedigree!

I was born... um. 1900 years after Vesuvius destroyed Pompeii. >_>

@noelle @OchotonidKnight i was born the same year calvin & hobbes ended. i call it "the year the laughter died"
