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
@OchotonidKnight @typhlosion so many people on masto are so little ;_;
@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)
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)
Shamelessly a child of the SNES here. Accounting for time zones, I was born on literally the day SMW came out in Japan.
@OchotonidKnight @noelle the snes is so good..... did you know it actually outstrips the genesis in most quantifiable hardware metrics (e.g. memory, color palette, sprites on screen)? genesis only beat it in processor speed iirc
i know more about retro console architectures than some people know about the jobs they get paid for >3>
