I was about 12 here. The reason why I look tired is because I had stayed up all night playing Final Fantasy 7.

Not actually playing games, but I'm hanging out with Bart Simpson at an arcade birthday party.

My favorite part about this is that hes not just wearing actual shorts, but has yellow fabric on the pants to make it look like shorts. its just so silly and ridiculous.

Shit man, I"m not sure if my parents have any of me but I'll have to check at their house. We had an Atari 2600 (that still works and that I own) when I was a little kid, and then the jump to N64 years later with some PC gaming in between. I think my parents have photos.. but not sure.

But I'll you this, I have like 500 photos of my son at the age of like 8months to 1.5 years playing a DS, iPhone, and 360

I wonder if bjork could be charged with possession of child pornography...

Yes. Sad, isn't it. We've reached a point where you cannot post a picture of YOURSELF in a nonsexual situation because you're too young.

Child porn is sick, but really...there's a time when things go overboard.

I started with my cousin atari or whatever, but my first console was a NES <3

I even reenacted this picture some years ago with my wii.

EDIT: Blurry pic is blurry :/

Not me playing games, but close enough.

I believe this was my 5th birthday, me with my mom (who passed in a car crash about a decade ago) and my presents from her that year. Gradius and TMNT for the NES.

Jesus man that sucks so bad. I'm sorry. Its a great picture though. I have many like it.

Not actually playing, but still a very special photo for me. It's from the day I got my first video game console, me and my father won it in a father's day competition held in the local mall, we were the the most resemblant father and son. It's me, my father and sister and a couple of creepy clowns:

While I seem to be very happy in the photo I remember that back in that days I wasn't interested in videogames at all, I even asked one of the clowns there if I could change the N64 for an Action Man figure, lol.

Great thread guys, keep it alive!

What I get from this thread.

1) I am old.
2) Blame space is white.
3) Bjork is going to get us all in some police database.

I have a few of me at my parents house, I'll grab them next time I'm there. I go back to the original NES and before that the Commodore computer. I may have some with the Atari when I was very little.

I wish I could show the young me what the games of today are like, just to see my reaction.

Here's a video of me playing Mario 1 the day after we got it (this is Boxing Day...'87? I don't know...I was either 1 or 2 there...if 1, 86, if 2, 87)

EDIT:
Clearly hadn't watched in awhile. I think it was 87, so I was almost 3.[/QUOTE]
